The Browns made their first set of cuts today, which unsurprisingly included their project WR Carlton Mitchell. I'm not shocked by that since they already have Josh Gordon, Greg Little, Mohammed Massaquoi, Jordan Norwood, Travis Benjamin, Josh Cribbs, and potentially Josh Cooper if he also makes the final cuts.

Personally they have too many "project WRs". If only they would go after a decent wideout in free agency...

I'm 99% sure the Browns don't actually realize there's a free agency aspect of acquiring players. Only terrible trades and draft busts are allowed by upper management (granted, this could change with new ownership, but honestly, it hasn't for how many years now).

LOL at that list of names. Man, it must suck to root for the Browns - like being a Giants fan in the mid/late 90s. *shudder* Dave Brown still gives me nightmares...

Okay.

I'm a huge Browns fan but I am really pessimistic this year. I think Weedon is a reach.

I think I might not watch much football this year.

Not a fan then. I watched 8 years of horrid 49er football.

I truly thought Mike Holmgren would improve the Browns, instead he really hasn't improved anything yet. Part of me thinks he never will (of course he may be forced out by new the owner anyways), they were lined for such a good draft this year and simply wasted some of their picks. I agree Weeden was a total reach in the 1st round.

They also lost out on the oppertunity to get Matt Flynn who apparently went to Seattle so he could ride the pine.

8 years??? The Browns haven't won anything since the 60's with Jim Brown. We have never been to the Superbowl once! You are complaining about 8 years?

Think it over dude....

I just heard on ESPN that Roger Goodell has confirmed that replacement refs will be used for Week 1 games so far, so get ready for the bitching about botched calls by DII, DIII, and high school referees.

Slightly off topic but has anyone started a fantasy football thread for this season?

Thank you sir. Normally I wouldn't be so lazy and would search myself but I was on my cell phone so it was difficult to do.

Good job, Old Navy.

I hate weekday games. They start and end way too late.

I have the opposite problem in Alaska they start while i'm still at work. Won't be a problem in a few weeks though because I'm moving back to the east coast next month

Must have thought there was some sort of Cleveland Browns sort of deal with their history.

The AFC didn't even exist in 1961.
