We have all been guilty of it, and it has happened recently. Cleveland Browns fans have been starved for success for so long that it's easy to grasp to the hope offered by a new player who is expected to bring change.
Sadly, this has often blown up in the team's faces. For recent examples, look at Brady Quinn, Justin Gilbert, Kenny Britt, and of course, Johnny Manziel.
All of those players were supposed to help turn the franchise around. And while there were those who shared their doubts — especially in the case of Manziel who was a walking controversy — there were just as many, if not more, who felt each of those players were going to be stars.
