With the opening of its exhibit, “A Legacy Unleashed,” in March, the Pro Football Hall of Fame will pay tribute to the legacy of the Cleveland Browns.

The exhibition will span the 60th and 70th anniversaries of the Cleveland Browns’ 1964 and 1954 championships, but it will also cover the years leading up to and including the franchise’s rebirth in 1999, the “Dawg Pound” years, and the 1980s “Kardiac Kids” era.

Almost all of those choices, particularly the major ones like trades, signings, and draft selections, are subject to extensive post-mortem debate, examination, and analysis.

These decisions typically don’t come all at once, in a flurry — but are calculated and well-thought out over weeks and months.
