How Davone Bess's Career Collapsed In 12 Months
The Browns announced this morning they have cut ties with receiver Davone Bess. It's not a surprise; Bess missed the final two games of the season for "personal reasons," and in January was arrested for assaulting an officer during a breakdown at a Florida airport. If the man needed help before, he'...
Browns President On New Uniforms: Wait 'Til Next Year
The Browns are getting new uniforms and team president Alec Scheiner is really jazzed about them. Good news for the fans: it doesn't sound like they are going to be the uniform equivalent of a telephone for old people, like Tampa Bay's new look. Bad news: they're going to have to wait until an unspe...
The Browns Are Asking Prospects About Bricks And Paper Clips
Some franchises want to identify the best football players in the draft. The Cleveland Browns want to identify the best MacGyvers....
Has Jim Harbaugh Worn Out His Welcome In San Francisco?
As more non-denials come out, it appears the Browns did make some attempt to trade for 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh. There's enough smoke to assume that something was at least smoldering. But much more interesting than the "what" is the "why," and the growing sense that all is not well in Ninerland....
San Francisco 49ers CEO Sons Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio
Earlier today, Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio ran a sort of weird story about the Cleveland Browns having nearly traded for San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh....
Did The Browns' Front Office Break Up Over Greg Schiano?
The troika of Jimmy Haslam, Joe Banner, and Michael Lombardi seemed doomed from the beginning, and the shit finally hit the fan yesterday with the announcement that the CEO and GM are out.

Which Cleveland Browns Rumor Is Funnier?
Browns owner Jimmy Haslam punted his general manager and CEO today, and his late front-office shuffling has produced two interesting but dubious rumors. It's difficult to decide which is better, so judge for yourself....
Joe Banner, Michael Lombardi Out In Cleveland
After a disastrous year capped off by a prolonged, embarrassing coaching search, the Cleveland Browns have cleaned house in the front office. CEO Joe Banner is "stepping down," and GM Michael Lombardi doesn't even get to pretend that he's leaving by choice—he's "departing the organization."...
The Browns' Coaching Search Has Reached DEFCON Schiano
The Cleveland Browns 2014 Coaching Search of Sadness (sponsored by Pilot Flying J) appears to be entering its final days, with a pair of surprise entrants: one guy who had previously taken his name out of the running, and another that many assumed would never coach in this league again....
The Browns' Coaching Search Just Got Sadder And More Desperate
The Browns remain the only NFL team without a head coach. (And the assistants, concerned the front office has no plan, are jumping ship.) Owner Jimmy Haslam told fans to chill out, that this was the plan all along, that the Browns were prepared to wait until all the coaches left in the postseason we...
The Browns Have Essentially No Coaching Staff Right Now
It was stupid when Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski was booted after only one season, but Cleveland's situation is getting dumber. The front office still hasn't found a replacement while other rebuilding teams, like the Texans, Skins, and Vikings, have hired new coaches. And now, while the Browns ha...
How Davone Bess Fell Through The Cracks
Davone Bess's offseason has gone from funny to frightening. One day, he's tweeting photos of weed. The next, he's having what can only be described as a mental breakdown at the airport. It soon emerged that Bess had another breakdown in March, a month before Miami traded him to Cleveland. The all-im...

Davone Bess Was Restrained And Hospitalized 10 Months Ago

Browns wide receiver Davone Bess was arrested early this morning at Fort Lauderdale International Airport for allegedly assaulting a law enforcement official. It's been a rough week for Bess....
Davone Bess Tweets (Another) Photo Of Weed
Browns receiver Davone Bess tweeted a photo of some weed this morning. This is noteworthy only insofar as marijuana is illegal, though increasingly decriminalized, and a banned substance in the NFL, though ubiquitous and largely unpoliced, and we presume that most of the NFL's rookie symposium consi...
Browns Owner Assures Fans Coaching Search Supposed To Take This Long
Early this morning, Browns fans received an email from owner Jimmy Haslam. It's not an apology for Cleveland not having a head coach yet, but it's not quite an explanation either....
