The BROWNS NOTE PODCAST

The intended content of this podcast changed rapidly on Friday, as the trades came through fast and furious. Join Ryan Burns (@FtblSickness) and Brendan Leister (@brendanleister) for first-blush (read: devoid of forethought) reactions, as well as a handful of twitter mailbag questions from you, our *expansive* international listening audience. We do appreciate y'all. Have a click and a listen. WOOF!

As Eddie Vedder once said: This one's for the serious collector. Longtime Sickness favorite Matt Waldman (@MattWaldman) joins Ryan Burns (@FtblSickness) to talk Browns and ball. We chatted for a couple hours, and there's something for everyone- philosophical origins, operations analysis, evaluation process, old school Browns-related war stories...and of course: the incoming rookie offensive skill players. Matt's focus for his Rookie Scouting Portfolio every year, he brings some of that goodness to the audio menu here at the Browns Note. Enjoy!

No. Sincerely. WTF do you mean? You'll have to wade through a half hour of small talk to get to the good stuff, but the rants on the "pass on QB at 1 and take him at 4" concept kick in about 2/3 of the way through and carry it home. Go Browns. WOOF.

After a year-long hiatus, the Browns Note is back. We figure covering the debacle that was 2017 in about 20 minutes at the outset is way more tolerable than living through it in full stereo week after week. And, since it has been a year, we felt free to ramble on inexcusably. Two hours of Ryan Burns and Brendan Leister talking Browns football, with heavy attention paid to the quarterback position, as ever. Come for the lucid takes on the Haslam era, stay for the QB discussion. GO BROWNS. WOOF!

We're back!  It took us awhile to crawl bloodied and beaten from the ashes of 2016. But hope springs eternal, and here comes the draft, complete with a boatload of Browns picks to give us false faith yet again. Join Ryan Burns, Brendan Leister and Pete Smith to talk needs, targets, and, of course, quarterbacks. Enjoy! (Or, don't. It's Browns football, after all.)

Well, THIS has been a fun couple of weeks to start the season, eh? Just when you think to yourself, "why the hell am I *still* following this team?" they go and do THIS.

Ok, so maybe it hasn't been all redemption and rose petals. But there are a couple of silver linings in the trash cloud, and we'll try to point them out to you. It's the least we can do. Get your helmet and dog biscuits. We're gonna need 'em.

Welcome back to Browns football, where hope springs eternal...or at least through mid-September. Join Ryan Burns along with Brendan Leister, Pete Smith and Sen Sogah to preview the Browns 2016 season and the week 1 tilt against the Eagles. Settle in for a long one- it's been awhile, and we need to catch up. Better double up on the dog biscuits.  WOOF!!

Join Ryan Burns and Pete Smith for in-depth review of all 8,364,972 Cleveland Browns 2016 draft picks, discussion of the trades down, and general observations of the impact of this rookie class on the Dawg Pound squad for 2016.  Buckle up.  WOOF.

The Draft is upon us! After a hiatus, the Browns Note is back. Join Ryan Burns, Brendan Leister and Pete Smith for all the draft possibilities, hopes and fears.  WOOF!!!

Ch-ch-changes...
