WKYC-TV in Cleveland reports that the Browns have formally offered Mike Holmgren a front office position with the organization.
The proposal is reportedly worth $8-10 million annually. The Browns are believed to be offering Holmgren a position as football "czar" -- or director of football operations -- similar to Bill Parcells' role with the Dolphins. If hired, Holmgren would bring in a general manager, who would then probably want to handpick his own head coach. Holmgren spent 1992-2008 coaching the Packers and Seahawks, compiling a 161-111 regular season record.

We'll see, the Browns made a big deal about trading out of the #5 pick and saving "45 million dollars" so firing Mangini may not be in the cards just yet.

Wayne H spent 27 million dollar cleaning house once Tuna arrived, he bought off Cammmy and Mueller and Capers and ths staff, Brown's owner Lerner seems a bit to cheap to do the same thing.

First they steal the Wildcat from us. now they are stealing our organization's operational structure. We are trend setters!

I doubt that Holmgren would agree to any terms in which he didn't have say of his head coach.
