Are the Browns actually on to something?

The Browns are a bad football team. They've been bad on a pace that seems completely unsustainable. And yet, here they are, sustaining how bad they are. This offseason, though, they've been making a lot of moves, and at least on paper, all of those moves make a lot of sense. For some reason.
The Browns were winless last year. It's tough to put a shine on that particular turd. If there was one thing they did well, it was stop the run, which is actually pretty impressive when you get down to it. Their opponents were usually ahead, and likely running the ball a heck of a lot to wind the clock. And still, they were a top ten defense against the run.
Other than that though, the Browns were pretty bad. I won't say much more than that, as a Colts fan. The Browns finished higher in every single one of the primary categories -- Rush Offense, Pass Offense, Rush Defense and Pass Defense -- than Indianapolis. And Cleveland seems to be executing a plan more well thought out than Indianapolis',
I digress. We haven't even had the draft yet, but consider all the offensive upgrades the team has already made. They have Tyrod Taylor now at quarterback, Jarvis Landry as a top wide receiver and Carlos Hyde as running back. On defense, they completely revamped their secondary, and they will have Myles Garrett, last year's top pick, as their primary edge rusher.
Oh, and they have 2 picks in the first 4 this year.
The first pick will be a quarterback, who will suddenly end up in what I consider to be the perfect situation. Whoever they pick won't be asked to start right away, instead learning under a vet, and practicing with talented,veteran skill players. The offensive line is not a liability for the Browns, even with Joe Thomas' retirement, so whomever gets drafted will also be kept upright. The Browns are actually going to put a new quarterback in a position to thrive,
And then there is pick number 4. The world is their oyster. With so many other quarterbacks expected to come off the board, the other top players, like Bradley Chubb and Saquan Barkley, will still be available at #4. Walter Football has the Browns taking Chubb, which would mean that the Browns would have a fearsome edge rush of Chubb and Garrett.
I know what it's like to be tied to a team that seems perpetually the victim of bad luck, so something will go wrong, without question, this offseason. If not, there is a heck of a lot to be excited about with the Browns for the next couple of years. The Browns are a bad football team, but they might soon be good.
