Gotta agree with Pe here. All they are missing is a QB, and they are playing in the horrible AFC, with a weaker AFC north.
Other than that, the Browns have a ton of talent, Joe Thomas, Mitchell Swartz, Alex Mack, which are 3 very solid players. Then you move up to the WR position with Josh Gordon (good deep threat? Loved his rookie season) and Greg Little. Then the RB is Trent Richardson, who is a beast. Weeden is dragging the unit down.
Then you go to the defense, that has Jabaal Sheard, Phil Taylor, D'Qwell Jackson, Joe Haden, and TJ Ward. Then the special teams has pro bowl kicker Phil Dawson.
At a quick glance, that offense looks very talented. I love their line, and their skill positions aside from QB are very solid. All they really need is a QB.
