Well hello there, fellow Cleveland Browns fan, and welcome back. Thank you for reading, live long & prosper and Mele Kalikimaka to you, wherever your home may be on this big, beautiful planet of ours, and we sincerely hope you have plentiful bacon and an overabundance of happiness. The Browns are coming off a dizzying, back and forth shootout loss on the road to the Los Angeles Chargers, followed up by being run out of their own building on Sunday by the NFL's lone remaining undefeated team, losing 37-14 to the Arizona Cardinals in a game that wasn't as close as the score indicates. Despite the fact that there are 11 contests remaining, finding a way - some way, any way at all - to snag a win and limp out of Thursday Night Football and into their mini-bye at 4-3 feels almost a necessity. It would have been difficult to imagine just two weeks ago, or even at the 5 minute mark of the 4th quarter in LA, that this game would be borderline 'Must Win,' but here we are. We here in The Draft Annex of The Evil Lair are on your side through, as we're here to provide you with a brief respite from your worry, and a distraction for a bit with a collection of college talent that might end up on Andrew Berry's radar next spring.
