MOBILE, Ala. – The Browns' new Vice President of Player Personnel Andrew Berry beat his college coach's bold prediction by almost a decade.
In 2009, when Berry passed up an opportunity with Goldman Sachs to join the Colts as a scouting assistant, Harvard football coach Tim Murphy proved to be prescient.
"Andrew's really special," he told The Harvard Crimson. "For my two cents, he'll be running an NFL team in 15 years. At 37 years old, he'll be running an NFL franchise. I have no question."
Now, Berry, a three-time All-Ivy cornerback, is almost running one at 28 -- one of the youngest men in the NFL with a top personnel job.
