I am currently narrowing my selections for a new team to root for. I won't pick a front runner, but I do want a team that is maybe up and coming. I have
about four candidates and will decide before the draft. Cleveland is one of the possibilites since they are fairly close and I can watch their games easily,
and they are an AFC team. I have three more that I have my eye one, but do you guys have any suggestions?

Well, we can rule out the Cardinals because their record of futility has been nearly as bad if not actually worse than Detroits.
We can also rule out the Raiders because the Raiders have just recently turned in to Detroit West with the only difference being a much better legasy. So an abundance of patience, the ability to cope with a lot of stress and a deep appreciation of history are requirements. BTW, I seriously lack the first 2 but have an abundance of the third.
Going to another NFC North team would be as bad to me as any move Matt Millen has made. But then, compared to Detroit all the other NFC North teams would be considered front runners by default and you already ruled that out.
Up and coming eliminates the Chiefs, Rams, The Falcons and Miami from the discussion.
I'd have much less respect for you personally if you linked yourself to Mike Shannarat.
If I were to play this game with myself in place of Brandon, Cleveland would be a good choice. But then, for me I can get any game I want so being able to see and or listen isn't that big a factor. Actually, if I were playing I'd strongly consider Houston and I've always kind of liked the Panthers even going back to the expansion days.
I see much potential fun in a which team should Brandon pick for his own discussion. Even a if I were forced to pick a new team what would it be kind of thing would have its amusement i suppose.
A nice distraction from the current free agent market discussion of what kicker will sign next. In fact, Brandon's a free agent fan. I think you should line up visits to team headquarters and see which team can fit you in under the salary cap.
