    Phil Savage would be a PERFECT fit with us

    BROWNS CONFIRM SAVAGE TERMINATION
    Posted by Mike Florio on December 28, 2008, 6:55 p.m.
    As first reported right here earlier in the afternoon (hey, we’re allowed to pat ourselves on the back from time to time), the Browns have fired G.M. Phil Savage.

    Per Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, owner Randy Lerner made the decision to dump Savage before Sunday’s 31-0 loss at Pittsburgh.

    The decision reportedly arose from “problems with Savage’s communication and leadership skills.”

    Cabot reports that Lerner didn’t attend Sunday’s game because he was lining up interviews for the G.M. and/or head-coaching positions. Lerner is expected to have a face-to-face meeting with former Steelers coach Bill Cowher.

    As several league insiders have opined to us, Savage simply isn’t fit to be the face of an organization. His skills are best suited to scouting potential draft picks and free agents out of the public eye.

    Savage, Brandon, Modrak and Guy would be GREAT IMO Modrak would scout college players and Savage would handle the NFL scouting....what do you guys think??

    He is expected to be offered a lesser role within Cleveland. Id take him in here as Head of College Scouting or as an Asst GM.
    COMING SOON...

      Hes up our alley for sure.

      But you have to throw a big question mark on anyone who pays Derek Anderson that much only to see him benched for Quinn.

      The ONLY reason Im for getting him is because he does a decent, not great, but decent job at the draft and I see it as an upgrade to Russ.

      Thats it though, their is much better.

        Great at scouting...terrible as the top guy in charge.

        Had a spat last year with someone else in the organization, forget who now, that lead to the other guys firing.

        Shoulda fired em both then.

          So we want the guy that Cleveland fires? Is that it?

          Why, is Matt Millen unavailable?

              Cleveland fired BB who just finished bending up over 11 times in a row so I wouldnt put too much stock in Cleveland firing anybody.

                Or the fact Cleveland fired Marty too.

                Savage is a great college scout, but NFL GM he is not.

                  We've been using the same excuse for Jauron too and that hasn't worked out too well. Yes I know he didn't come from Cleveland but same premise. It's not like Cleveland is some sort of a powerhouse.
