Browns CEO Joe Banner said yesterday he would act quickly after the season on the futures of GM Tom Heckert and head coach Pat Shurmur. Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports the most common is that Banner will hire former Eagles employee Mike Lombardi, a past Browns Director of Pro Personnel under Bill Belichick, to be his GM. The Boston Globe reported that Banner likes Lombardi because of ties to former Browns assistant and Alabama head coach Nick Saban, Oregon's Chip Kelly or New England offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, the Canton-McKinley High and John Carroll product. A source said that McDaniels, who coached the Broncos in 2009, would jump at the chance to coach the Browns. Source: The Redzone
Josh McDaniels is in a job now that he was born to do. He should stay with the Pats until Brady is done. He's a younger coach, there's no reason he needs another HC gig right now.
It makes a little bit of sense, in theory. He fits with the people they want to put in place, and his skills on offense (ahem) align with the biggest problem that needs to be fixed in Cleveland. He also could be more successful with fewer responsibilities, and he wouldn't have the license to ruin the roster by trading Richardson and Haden away for a third round pick or something equally terrible. But still, no. This was me trying to give a legitimate evaluation of why its a possibility and should not be taken as support for McDoucher
hed never trade richardson away...he drafted slowshon moreno...richardson is way more like what he wanted in moreno than moreno was probably wouldnt be a terrible fit though, as long as hes not giving run the team into the ground power hes not a terrible coach but possibly the worst GM ive ever seen
That's what I'm saying too, it could work with him being way down on the totem pole. But he showed in Denver he's freaking terrible at managing personnel.
