The biggest dog in the NFL is heading to the pound. The same dog pound that has lost its bark for years, watching nothing but crap on the field, year after year. The same dog pound that had a parade not too long ago for their perfect season. The same season they lost every single game. The Cleveland Browns have added Odell Beckham Jr. from the New York Giants. The Browns will need to make sure they have plenty of rabies shots on hand. Beckham is a pure junkyard dog, foaming at the mouth, type of player. He is a wide receiver that will score on any given play and take it to the house. He may hump the goal post once or twice in a game, even on a bad day. He may even urinate on an official. In any pound or in any park, he might be the best doggone receiver in the game, and he is a Brown.

The Cleveland Browns have been to hell and back. The city of Cleveland watched their Browns sneak out of town in the wee hours of the morning and move to Baltimore, years ago . The city and fans fought like hell to at least get the Browns name back. Years later the NFL gave Cleveland back their team that should have never left in the beginning. They had their team back but they could never figure out how to put a quality team on the field. They drafted guys like Johnny Football and passed on guys like Carson Wentz. Finally they got it right at quarterback. They finally found their leader behind center in a man named Baker Mayfield. The number one draft pick in 2018. This time the Browns were not passing on a guy that could lead their team to new heights. Not just a few wins. Beyond that. He has shown that on the field already. A leader with loads of talent.

This off season the man behind getting Baker Mayfield is the new GM of the Browns, John Dorsey. The Browns GM has been a very busy man revamping the Browns roster and coaching staff. His efforts paid off in the regular season when the Browns were very competitive. They almost had a winning season. They almost made it to the 500 mark with a 7-8-1 record. Those seven wins are more than they had in many years combined. This off season he added a dog at running back. A dog that likes to push women around. Kareem Hunt is that dog. He will be suspended a few games for breaking his leash and attacking a female. He will play for the Browns at some point. Now you add Beckham with Hunt and the playmakers you already assembled, you might have an offense with weapons of mass destruction like the Kansas City Chiefs. Dorsey swindled the Giants for Beckham for two draft picks. A first rounder and a third rounder. They also gave the Giants, safety Jabrili Peppers. This is not a king’s ransom for an elite play maker like Beckham.

Not saying the Browns are barking their way to the Superbowl. They are closer than ever. John Dorsey has put together a high octane offense this off season that will scare lots of defenses. Let’s not forget about the Browns defense which is pretty good. Then you look at the Browns division. The Bengals are backing their way back to Bumble status. The Ravens are going with the running man at quarterback. One dimensional offense especially when all their receivers have left town. The Ravens defense lost a few key players. The Steelers got rid of all their crybaby play-makers. Right now if the season started today, I have the Browns winning this division. Browns just need to keep their dogs on the field and they should be good to go. The NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is always in the mood to put a bad dog to sleep for good. Ask Colin Kaepernick.
