Person speculates we could take a look at some assistants from the Browns staff as well.

Nolan Cromwell has a pretty good rep as a wide receiver coach (Person thinks that job belongs to Proehl) though in Cleveland he was an offensive assistant. Cromwell has coached special teams before though and was a great special teamer as a player. Honestly, he might conceivably be worth a look as a potential OC.

The guy who actually held the WR coaching duties is named Mike Wilson. He's best known for helping develop Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin in Arizona. Could be worth a look.

Browns RB coach Gary Brown interned with the Panthers in 2007. He's inexperienced but has had decent results. I remember him as a player. I think there are better options.

And of course, Panther fans should remember LB Coach Billy Davis. He was the guy that coached Salt and Pepper (not the one that Greene choked though, that was Kevin Steele). Doesn't look like he has any history with Rivera though.

The Browns also have a couple of old hands on the defensive side of the ball in Dick Jauron and Ray Rhodes. Unknown if there'd be a fit for either here except in a consultant type role (which is what Rhodes was doing in Cleveland anyway). They also have an experienced S&C coach who might be worth a look.

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
