    What grade do the Browns get in free agency so far? Hey, Mary Kay!

    The first week of free agency has been good to the Browns so far. They added a wide receiver via trade a few days before things got started and then proceeded to solidify their defensive front and linebacking corps while brining back key pieces.
    What grade do they get so far? It’s the first question Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe answer on Friday’s Hey, Mary Kay! edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast.
    They also talk about the impact Jerry Jeudy could have as well as the status of certain contract restructures as the free agency period continues.

    Why did the Browns choose Jameis Winston over Joe Flacco?

    Why did the Browns choose Jameis Winston over Joe Flacco?

    The Browns caught nearly everyone off guard when they pivoted and chose Jameis Winston over Joe Flacco as their backup quarterback this season. Winston joins the Browns after being the backup in New Orleans.
    Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe dig into the Browns decision and how it ended up with Winston as the guy to back up Deshaun Watson.
    They discuss what they believe went into the decision and what prompted the Browns to make this decision. Is it a better scheme fit than Flacco?
    They also talk about whether the Browns considered the reaction if Watson struggled with Flacco sitting on the bench -- and if they should have.
    Then they discuss Winston's off-field issues at Florida State and early in his career and how fans might react to him before they talk about Winston's personality and what he brings as the backup.
    They end the pod by trying to figure out what might be next for Flacco.

    Why Jerry Jeudy was the right move for the Browns and will Russell Wilson work in Pittsburgh?

    Why Jerry Jeudy was the right move for the Browns and will Russell Wilson work in Pittsburgh?

    The Browns will acquire wide receiver Jerry Jeudy from Broncos when the NFL's new league year begins on Wednesday at 4 p.m. They are giving up a fifth and sixth round pick for the receiver.
    Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe react to the trade in Part 1 of their Browns free agency podcast on Monday.
    They discuss why the trade made sense for the Browns and what Jeudy brings to the team's wide receiver room. What impact will Amari Cooper have on him? How does he fit in the offense? Why make this move now?
    They also discuss Russell Wilson signing with the Steelers and what it means for the AFC North. Will Wilson revive his career in Pittsburgh? Does it make the Steelers a contender?
    Then they make some predictions that are sure to age poorly given the timing of this podcast.

Clean up English !!

It’s starting to pain me to hear how often Ashley says “like” and “obliviously”. If its obvious, I don’t need to hear it from a spirts pundit, and there is nothing to LIKE about hearing “like” every third word. Learn from MYC, she’s a pro’s pro !!!

Daily insights

I like that the show is nearly everyday. Some of the presenters have voices made for print journalism and it can be difficult to listen to but the A Team of Mary Kay, Dan & Ashley are all fantastic, presenting concise well researched insights with the professionalism level of the best radio and TV pros. Awesome!
