The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Browns walked right past. Too much went sideways, and the D is the honest tally.

The veteran additions, George Pickens chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game. A fair-value weekend of trading, no edge to be found.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
