Interesting summary of Waiting for Next Year's rather extensive fan polling.
I wonder of the 55 players chosen for this mythical squad, how many would make such a squad spanning the entire Browns history? The new Browns have played 21% of all Browns seasons and roughly a quarter of all games. So that would rate 11 or 12.
Which "new" Browns could make the cut for an all-time Browns squad?
- Joe Thomas
- Winslow and/or Heiden at TE
- Cribbs as a returner
- maybe Dawson as a modern kicker, since Lou will already be in at LT
- even Roye at DE/DT is a stretch
Now, if D'Qwell Jackson plays up to the new contract he just signed and makes a few Pro Bowls, he could fit on the linebacker depth chart down the road. But really no other current Brown is even that close to rating as an all-timer. Too young, too much turnover, bad drafts and bad luck. Get well soon, Mr. Heckert.

I feel like Joe Thomas could definatley be part of an all-time best Browns team. He is a feak at left tackle and one of the best in the game. Every single game he brings his best and theirs not many people in the league that get the best of him on Sunday's
