NFL Offseason Preview -- Cleveland Browns

You should have known better, Peyton.
Though the Super Bowl is over and games don’t begin until next fall, the NFL season never truly ends. In many ways, the “game” that goes on in between the games is just as important, if not more so, than what happens on the field. Here, in the offseason, is where the course of all 32 NFL franchises is determined. To highlight the importance of this period, and to take a peek at what each team is facing, I’ll be embarking on an ambitious series in which I briefly preview each team’s offseason. We’ll examine the major questions each team faces, what type of cap room they have, who they should be targeting in the draft, etc. My goal is to complete this prior to the start of free agency (March 13)…..which will likely not happen. Oh well.

We continue the previews with a team so tortured that even Brad Childress can’t make things much worse, the Cleveland Browns. In case you missed them, here are links to each of our past previews:

NFL Offseason Preview -- St. Louis Rams


This has to be on the front cover of the 2011 St. Louis Rams almanac, right?
