Landry is a very good receiver, and should combine nicely with the outside threats that have the potential to improve this year. And Joe Thomas has already come out and enthusiastically endorsed the Taylor acquisition. They've been slowly putting together a fine offensive line and they are getting rid of the deadwood.
And what this means to me is that they have a GM who knows what he's doing and is on the same page with the head coach.
Pretty good prescription for success I'd say. At the worst they build a foundation for a franchise quarterback and look to get to around .500 this year.
At best they look like they are following the script that Philadelphia, Jacksonville and the Rams have been benefitting from - with a pretty quick turn around.
I'm not convinced but they have my attention
Exactly how I feel. I could see 7-9 or better this season. Maybe playoffs if all goes well. I'm not 100%, but they have my attention for sure.

I'd think they'd keep him. He's a good pass catcher for sure. Not that we really need that.

Although it appears PFR's splits are mistaken. We've only played him twice when he was the starting QB. Once each of the last 2 years. We split them.

And just to throw this little tidbit in there: Last year, Browns QB's threw 28 INT's, which is 10 more than Taylor has thrown in his entire career.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
