The NFL Trade Deadline has come and gone. But in a week that has seen a ton of movement the last two days, I can’t get past the Cleveland Browns situation. They fired their Head Coach Hue Jackson and Offensive Coordinator Todd Haley, putting an end to a bitter and petty public beef, while also getting a head start on finding replacement candidates. For now, it’s Defensive Coordinator Gregg Williams of Bountygate fame serving as the interim HC with Freddie Kitchens (who I’ve never heard of until reading this) as the OC replacing Haley.
Maybe front offices are now more inclined to do it piece by piece than in one fell swoop, but here’s hoping this strategy doesn’t backfire and result in damaging potential franchise quarterback Baker Mayfield, who appears to be a dynamic talent just waiting to break out.
Who will be the Cleveland Browns next full time Head Coach? (@betonline_ag):
Sean McVay +200
Lincoln Riley +225
Zac Taylor +550
John DeFilippo +650
Dan Campbell +750
Brian Flores +750
Dave Toub +800
Jim Harbaugh +1200
Bill Belichick +2000— OddsShark (@OddsShark) October 29, 2018

Talked to Elway on Demaryius trade: "With the youth we have at receiver, we wanted to get them on the field and Demaryius goes to a team that wanted him. It was best for both sides. We weren't going to do this unless we got value. We weren't taking less than a fourth.'' #9sports
