They got Harold Fannin.

They drafted Mason Graham in the first round.

Carson Swessinger, the linebacker, is probably going to win defensive rookie of the year.

Judkins, they didn't get him at their facility until the end of the preseason because of his off-the-field stuff.

Boomer & Gio
Making History | '1st & Pod'

He ends up being a pretty good running back before he gets injured at the end of the year.

Boomer & Gio
Making History | '1st & Pod'

So they found a lot of good players in this draft, but to me it's too little too late.

Boomer & Gio

Their GM there was brought in.

Boomer & Gio
Making History | '1st & Pod'

He had to sign off on the Deshaun Watson deal.

And if they go 6-11, the GM's going to get fired, and the head coach is going to have to worry about the next guy he's working for.

Boomer & Gio

So I don't get that from the Browns.

Boomer & Gio
Making History | '1st & Pod'

I would have kept Stefanski, actually, if I had to choose between the two, and he would have gotten one more shot with me in Cleveland because overall I think he's done a pretty good job there, Pat.
