2019 Browns Off Season/Roster Discussion

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Is anyone close without McCoy? Maybe the Chargers? Jaguars?

Without Suh, the rams line doesnt scare me as much. They were head and shoulders the best last year on paper.

The closest might be...the Eagles? Maybe the Chargers, because their DE rotation is insanely deep.
 
Browns probably have the best, at least one of the best starting d-lines in the NFL. Avery is tremendous as a rotational guy.

Add in McCoy, good lord.

And if Chad Thomas is actually someone who can play... it just gets stupid on paper.
 
This team is taking down the Patriots and we finally get that motherfucker Belichick right where we want him

6 Super Bowls, 3 coach of the years, record 31 playoff victories and 2 decades of dominance, and that fucker will regret the day he moved on from the Browns.

I saw a DVOA conversation a few pages ago. I think you guys may be misunderstanding what it is and how it is measured.

DVOA is a regression that looks at how given plays effect the odds of winning, over time, and then applies those results as predictive weights.

Because of how it functions, it is great at analyzing holistic results, and cross-positional value. A difference in DVOA within a position, however, is mildly less descriptive. It shows you, quite literally, who the most efficient players are at each position, but it does not have a direct relationship on who is contributing most to winning.

So, in many ways, DVOA is parallel to RPM. They analyze the same thing, but, they are valuable in opposite ways.

Also, as someone mentioned, NFL is hard to evaluate, because the sample is incredibly small and you have twenty-two players playing at once. This further adds to why DVOA is better at analyzing across positions then within positions.

I also think Jarvis is mildly overrated. But that’s mainly because I do not actually find slot receivers that important. Nonetheless, Jarvis is one of the best slot receivers in the NFL, and he was playing way out of position last season. I’ll be excited to see how he performs this year.
 
Can someone offer any insight on whether or not he would need to clear waivers before he becomes a FA under his specific circumstance?
 
The D-Line is already scary.

McCoy would make it transcendent.

It would need its own nickname.
 
Browns actually ran 35.9 pass plays per game last year. Pittsburgh led the league with 43.1.

Improvements on both sides of the ball may lead us to running more offensive plays this year than we did last year. So rather than divvying up 33 passes per game as has been discussed, the number could be around 40 or so.

However, when we are up 27-6 entering the 4th, I would expect us to pass much less frequently.
