No idea but if he takes the job, the Browns offensive coordinator search (Mike Sherman) should be over shortly after.

You think he will hire an OC? He had his hands all over the offense in GB sometimes its hard for those guys to give up playcalling.

I know they should hire one, but their egos don't let them. Garrett, Shurmur, etc.

From what I've heard, Shurmur wanted to find an OC but a) there was nobody available that they liked/wanted and b) Holmgren encouraged him (Shurmur) to call his own plays. Unless something goes drastically wrong, the Browns should have a play calling OC this year. If Philbin takes Sherman, I'm thinking it will now be Brad Childress. Childress was contractually obligated last year and couldn't accept the position.

Tony Dungy told Dan Patrick that he believes that Tressel will be the next HC of the Colts.

This could bode well for the Browns. If Tressel is the head coach I'm not so sure that Luck is a lock for the #1 pick. Tressel has had most of his success with running QB's (Troy Smith, Pryor).

Dungy is obviously not their (Colts) GM/owner but he's one of the few who has said he'd take RG3 over Luck.

I highly doubt the #1 draft pick is going to be Tressel's call if he is hired as the Head Coach. Jim Irsay is going to tell whatever Coach they hire who to use that pick on and he has said he wants Luck.

Doesnt matter who the coach is, the Colts are taking Luck. Irsay has said s much. Hell he has even gone on to explain his firing of Polian with 98 and saying you just have to start over and then compared drafting Peyton to Luck as well.

Luck is a 100% lock to the Colts. Seriously? Tressel had running QBs in college so he is going to take rg3 w/ the Colts? And then the 2 teams in front of the Browns are going to pass on Luck--because, you know, the Colts might trade arguably the best QB of all-time to get Luck, but the Rams and Vikings won't part w/ Sam Bradford and Christian Ponder, respectively, to get Luck. And no one will trade up to #2 or #3 to grab Luck either.

To be fair, if the Colts DID pass (wont happen) the Browns have by far the most to offer in a trade with their 2 first rounders to the Rams.

If you think that if Luck were to slide to #2 that the Browns wouldn't be pissing all over themselves to get up to #2, you're fooling yourself.

It's not even that. That entire "scenario" has about a .00001% of happening.
