Monken would be an incredibly interesting hire.
Inherently familiar w/ spread concepts, pretty innovative guy. Could be a good fit alongside Fab Five Freddie.
Impressive coach. Took over a So Miss program in shambles and turned it around.
Not sure monken would want to be a Monday-Saturday OC and I doubt Freddie would give up play calling year 1

I am all for hiring an OC to help out, but Kitchens better still be calling the plays. That's what got him the HC job. I have a hard time believing he won't be the play caller. It just wouldn't make any sense.
I suppose it depends on how you view it. A franchise is inherently about more than any one person, or more than any particular group of player who happen to be playing for it at a particular time.
The most accurate way to characterize what happened is that the league shut down the Browns for three years, opened a new franchise in Baltimore, transferred our roster there, and then reopened the Browns in 1999.
Plus...I take some personal credit for the name, colors, and history staying here. I worked for the Firm that represented Modell in that whole dispute, and while I wasn't part of the team that worked in it, I did very early on suggest to someone who was on the team that Modell should offer that to the city even though it had never been done before.
So....you're welcome.
Will he play the fullback?
No concerns with Dorsey influencing the coordinator hires?
