Good for him. Best wishes.

Championship! Oh wait it’s the Browns, never mind.

Lol way to start off by shitting on them/him. I guess the fact we still used his input on the draft board after he was fired means nothing.

The man knows his football. No I'm not saying every pick he makes turns out to be a success, far from it. But I'd say he's had about as much success drafting players as any GM in the league.

Good luck to McC and the Browns, I was rooting for them before this and still am. Besides, he's a player personnel consultant, they didn't give him the keys to the ship. Good move for the Browns.

I was shitting on the Browns, not McCloughan just to be clear.

I wasn't sure which way you were going with that, thanks for the clarification. Just saying I know the Browns couldn't possibly get any worse, but this seems like a smart move for them. I don't think they are as bad as things seem. Yes, they need a lot of help. But you make a few smart moves and things can happen. Just look at the Jags.

Re: Scot McCloughan joins Browns
 

It sure doesn't hurt to bring in McC, but when you've won 4 games the last 3 years I do think it's as bad as it seems.

Good lord and u think he had a drinking problem before?

I mean, they could be without the surplus of draft picks they currently have. McC is a good personnel man, that's another +. What if every competent football guy they tried to bring in turned them down? That'd be the worst case scenario. I guess I'm trying to say record wise they couldn't possibly get any worse than 1-31. But it could be worse as far as future prospects go.

Regardless of what transpired here, i do not think that McCloughan was drinking on the job as was suggested by the Redskins.

Yeah, right. You must be the guy who actually bought the Brooklyn Bridge. He gets fired three times for drinking on the job, never goes to rehab, and somehow you think he wasn't drinking on the job in Washington?

It’s awfully hard to imagine that he wasn’t. Especially in a culture like the NFL that doesn’t do much to discourage that type of stuff... wasn’t long ago that Portis talked about doing shots before games.

Re: Scot McCloughan joins Browns
 

Wow, great move by the Browns! Scot McCloughan is going to have a field day with all of those picks. I wouldn't doubt if Cousins to Cleveland becomes more of a reality now.

Sorry but it's the browns, until they win a game or 2 I won't think much of this

There was a time when the sentiment was, "It's the New England Patriots, until they win more than 2 games, I don't put much stock in them!" I have no doubt the Browns will right the ship, and getting McCloughan doesn't hurt their chances at all. He, at least, instantly gives that FO some credibility, just like he did in Washington until Bruce Allen screwed it all up. We still relied on McCloughan's draft board last year, and players really like him. He's going to make the Browns a better team. Time will tell if he's able to turn the Browns completely around, but I have no doubt he improves that club instantly.

Re: Scot McCloughan joins Browns
 

He will turn the browns around, they do have talent, draft picks and money, people will realize what a loss he was. The turn around will be quick and look for him to sign some of our FA’s.

The pats went to a SB in the 80s and 90's before Belichick, that isn't a good comparison, Saints yes but not Pats. Maybe he will help them get better but how can you guys be ALL IN for the browns now but say we will never win again?

Re: Scot McCloughan joins Browns
 

Sounds like McC is just coming in as a consultant for the draft so we might want to pump the brakes on this talk of him turning them around

Dang Matt, you had to ruin the thread!!

Re: Scot McCloughan joins Browns
 

Admittedly, I committed the big sin of not reading the story in the link, but I still think his involvement will help the Browns tremendously.

What do you think about Dorsey, Wolf, and their front office?

Again it's Cleveland, until they produce a season with 6 wins or more nobody will care who's there

Cleveland Browns will be a playoff team in 2019. Book it Dan-O.

That's cool and all but as I predicted 2019 we will win the SB.

Redskins vs Browns in SB. That would be effing amazing. Pigs would be flying to the moon and back.
