FOF Take 2 with the Browns

[Abe Sargent]

If you followed my Panthers dynasty you’ll know what we won 5 Super Bowls, QB retired, and then I traded a few 1st up to the 1.1 spot to draft an as scouted 1.1 QB at 9.5, but a game save, auto crash, then I hit my save and grabbing the auto-draft rather than moving to the next pick but not autodrafting and save, I grabbed a stud RB my staff liked and saved in the 2nd round prior to drafting.

Let’s do this again, but this time let’s add a degree of difficulty since I got 5 Super Bowls from our 2nd stud QB Fiste after Plamondon busted after his first year by 2042. Who now?

I want another team without winning a Super Bowl, with a bad QB situation, and likely to lose again. Obviously this disincludes stud CJ Stroud from the Texans, the Bills with their stud QB, My Jags with T. Lawrence, how about 46/46 Deshawn Watson from the Browns? Done!

Any great UFAs I can bring in?

OC X’Zauvea Gadlin – 20/59 great pass and run blocking, I offer him three years,

He signs and I cut OC Nick Harris

Week 2 – Green Bay – QB Jameis Winston questionable for 7 weeks, we win 17-10

Week 3 – Minnesota – We win 30-17, WR James Prohe questionable for 3 weeks; DT Shelby Harris also questionable for 3 weeks

Week 4 – At Seattle – We…win 17-10. No injuries

I cut these 7:

RB Nyheim Hines
TE Cameron Lutu
WR Jaelon Darden
RT Jack Conklin
DE Isiah McGuire
I want to cut injured DT Harris, but I cannot.
OG Luke Wypler
CB Khalef Hailassie


Here’s my starting roster and depth:

The 2024 Cleveland Browns






Here you go! QB Watson busted to 41/41, RB Chubb to 52/52 , WR Cooper to 56/56, OC Gadlin to 19/50, rookie OG Zinter rose to 44/71. I have studly front seven with Garrett, I’m shocked that my DC likes Sam Kamara at DT with 39/43 over 69/69 Tomlinson, but I tried twice. Our two CBs are studs like Jaycee Downs and young like him. Bad S though, and Ots too, and WR, TE and skill positions. Our d should keep us in game, but with a dropping Chubb that may not be easy to run over foes.

Ready?
