NGT: What a job John Dorsey has done

Anakim : 3/12/2019 9:25 pm
Holy fuck. He's turned the Browns from a laughingstock to one of the best teams in the NFL...at least on paper.


He was my #1 choice to be our new GM (I have proof!). But alas, his approach would've "clashed" with the "Giants way."
Fuck Dorsey...

Fuck everyone.
By taking advantage of mentally ill  
SHO'NUFF : 3/12/2019 9:26 pm : link
senior citizens?
Let’s just see what happens.  
bradshaw44 : 3/12/2019 9:26 pm : link
Lots of strong personalities on that team. Things don’t break right and we could see Mr Dorsey forced to deal assets he doesn’t want to.
He just bent DG over a park bench and had his way with him  
The_Boss : 3/12/2019 9:27 pm : link
Maybe he could call Dave back and get Barkley next for a 2nd and 6th.
Dude.  
Tim in Eternal Blue : 3/12/2019 9:30 pm : link
You aren't lying. He's been amazing. My buddy is a diehard Browns fan and that fan base definitely has something to be excited about.

Obviously we don't know the finished product... But DG has gutted this team. This team is about as devoid of talent as I've ever seen.

Hahahahaha, first time I've laughed in the last two hours. Thanks
One huge asset he had walking in  
bigbluehoya : 3/12/2019 9:32 pm : link
A TON of cap space that they’d saved up by not paying unnecessary and/or washed up players during the time that they clearly were not in a position to win.

Makes life a lot easier once you’re ready to start adding.

. What did you think you were actually going to get for OBJ? Antonio Brown only netted a3 and a fifth rounder. And Brown is much better than OBJ
For some perspective though.  
FatMan in Charlotte : 3/12/2019 9:34 pm : link
if Beckham and Vernon continue to be injured, he's going to end up looking bad. A lot of money on players who can't take the field if their injury histories persist.

I think the Giants got the better of the Vernon trade. Got ass raped on this trade.
Maybe

The browns can finish above .500 before we call them one of the best teams in the NFL
This is what happens with a cost controlled qb  
Giantimistic : 3/12/2019 9:37 pm : link
.
Lots of egos were added to the Browns  
Rjanyg : 3/12/2019 9:39 pm : link
Last year, Landry and Mayfield. This year OBJ, Richardson.

They added Vernon the Kneeler and Kareem the kicker.

They might win but if they don’t it could get ugly.

Lots of talent but lots of “ me “ guys.

The one fucking trade DG could not under any circumstances be on the losing end of and he did. Unreal.

definitely some personalities there. Will be interesting to compare them with the Giants who are going the boy scout route.

Also, I don't think Vernon was ever accused of being a "me" guy though I have no doubt that Mara is glad he's gone due to the kneeling.
He’s winning  
Pete in MD : 3/12/2019 9:46 pm : link
at Madden right now. I guess we’ll see how it looks in real life.
Well....  
Danny80 : 3/12/2019 10:00 pm : link
I don't want to take away from John Dorsey here, but shouldn't some credit be given to Sachi Brown? Poor guy put the Browns in phenomenal drafting and free agency position and gets fired before he was able to take advantage of all the treasures he mined. Dorsey looks like he's done well with the opportunities offered to him, but he had tons of opportunities. If he had taken Bradley Chubb at 5, he would've done great. Decent chance if he had taken Darnold, he would've done well long term. Nick Chubb was a no brainer for a team in need of a young RB. Tons of money in free agency. He was handed a golden situation. He's done well with it, but it would be hard to mess that up.
Dorsey is the guy that calls senior citizens  
SHO'NUFF : 3/12/2019 10:05 pm : link
and scams them. That's basically what he did, in a nutshell.
still gotta win  
mdc1 : 3/12/2019 10:11 pm : link
regardless of the talent and how it looks on paper. Can't wait till Mayfield gets under Beckhams skin.
Dorsey also inherited a draft...  
John in No Cal : 3/13/2019 12:44 am : link
Where the previous GM had positioned the team to have the 1st and 4th pick and created a ton of cap space but yeah..... Dorsey is amazing.

Wrong.


How many years does Antonio Brown have to play better than OBJ before people concede that he's better than OBJ?
I'll reserve judgement for a couple seasons...
