No reason to cut Dalton, TBH. There are no better options. #3.....I don't think we should even have a #3 QB. It's not a position important enough(hold on, I will explain). At the point we are past Dalton, it's all gone to poo anyway so just deal with whatever is available.

Dalton is injured

If you thought this was bad wait until preseason game 3 vs Steelers where Bryce and Dalton don’t play and Jack Plummer gets the full game 

We are going to get the breaks beat off us all 3 preseason games. Doesn’t bode well for the regular season at all.

The scoreboard doesn't matter. But how your starters look and the overall level of preparedness does.

You don't have to get mad and just start switching up arguments to try to find something that will land.

My point from the beginning here was that you're not likely to find immediate help for your pass rush in the draft unless you're lucky enough to be drafting VERY high and have a potential generational type talent in the draft. That's it, that's all. Immediate impact pass rusher help in the draft is a long shot.

Lol...im switching up arguments when I'm just stating what you said early this week. Don't look to far into pre season right? Walker hasn't played a real game like any other rookie so we shouldn't be looking too much into things and hype. I mean.. If he was lighting it up right now it would be against second and third stringers correct? This is your logic you have already landed. Im just repeating it.

So new HC time? Because Canales is the OC. He's an Andy Reid style HC. It's his offense and he's the play caller and some good buddy of his gets a nice pay check and a title on his door to be a clipboard holder.

No matter what happens I am willing to give Canales at least 3 years even if we are drafting top 5. 
Mostly because I am tired of switching coaches every few years.

I agree (it was frustration/sarcasm). However, I think the Browns might cut an upgrade over Plummer....but your second point is one I agree with too.

Yeah. I didn't want to say it, but if your team is putting out this kind of effort, even in a preseason game, you need a coach on the sidelines chewing out someone and letting them know their careers are literally on the line here. If you are trying to make it on one of the worst teams in the NFL over the last five years and you can't show out, then you aren't going to get chances elsewhere.

Mr. Friendly-friendly might not be the answer here.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
