The Cleveland Browns clearly were prepared for the Sashi Brown move Thursday.
Less than 12 hours after they announced Brown’s departure from the team, John Dorsey, his replacement as general manager, had been hired.
This is a good thing. All too often in the past, the Browns made a personnel move without knowing what was next. Instead of being decisive, they found themselves casting about to fill a job.
This time they were ready. It’s probably not very comforting to Brown that the team was seeking his replacement while he was still working, and it might not be the most honorable thing ever done.
