CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns' fetid, feeble record indicates the new general manager, John Dorsey, was correct in what he said recently. He claimed the previous regime of numbers crunchers and, by popular fan inference, pointy-headed, Ivy League nerds didn't draft "real players."
An 0-13 record this season, a 1-28 (3.4 percent wins) under Coach of the Future Hue Jackson, a 4-46 record since the last five games of 2014 (8 percent wins) surely make the case that change is needed.
2018 draft better be "real" good
If the day of jubilee comes and the Browns ascend to the dizzying heights of, say, 7-9 or 8-8 some day, it will be because of the slew of draft picks amassed by the previous regime, even if, extrapolating from Dorsey's remarks, that regime selected players based on algorithms, biorhythms and maybe a Ouija board.
