Coaches want a defense in which the front four get as much pressure as possible to allow for seven guys to drop into coverage ... hello, Takk and Malik and Jadeveon.
THIS is what it's like to have a GM and coaching staff rowing in the same direction, right? To not be throwing each other's work into the trash followed by a "now let's talk some football, boys"?
I think I'm more excited about that reality than I am about any of the specific players the Browns have acquired. We're finally fans of a smart team that makes smart decisions. Doesn't mean that every decision will pan out -- we know going in that some won't, actuarially -- but as long as the process is a sound and evolving one that routinely produces good decisions, good results will follow.
