     Jags Saturday night... Who are you playing/sitting?.

    We're in somewhat uncharted waters with the shortened preseason.  

    When, and how much of a 'tune up' do the starters get.  Is it game 2?  3?  

    If I were to guess I'd say starters for a half (or even less) of game 3.  And 2nd half is the last ditch effort for guys to make the team.

    Pre-season ='s Vanilla football...I'm fine with one series of both (clean health) starters.. than yank both.. Inter-squad with Giants..nobody see's nuttin..(and we don't play them) I've heard (nfl radio) gm.2, is the closest thing to a real starter tune-up game...Game 3, now becomes your final bottom of the roster cut down game.. (ours is slim)

    believe nothing...till ya see it !

    You almost want to think that the strategy would be league wide.  I mean, in preseason games you really don't want your starters in there against 3rd stringers because the two teams have totally different ideas on how the 'new' preseason games should be handled.

  • We could start hearing some medical updates around the 27th.. Greedy Williams was limited in both OTA's & Mandatory's.. So it sounds like? GW would still need cleared to practice?

    When does the Cleveland Browns' training camp begin?

    The Cleveland Browns' 2021 training camp begins on Tuesday, July 27. For the first time in league history, NFL teams will have a unified start to training camp. ?

    Media & fans are welcome in Friday the 30th... Than video's like these take a seat to real on the field action...?

    with a injury history like these two? It's going to be easy to cheer for both at camp... ?

    Greedy defends his spot.. while Newsome seems to bring a bigger dawg bite... Get Ready!?

    Who's a fan of just putting your best players on the field?

    The twist is..Greg Newsome is seeing inside slot reps, that kick Troy Hill to the outside ?.. and Baker is only finding the small windows of NfL open...with JJ3 lurking..

    count me in, as one to be watching this play out..

    Cross training is the Brown's goal. I guess that could create some significant playing time if there is an injury or some mild sickness. And, maybe creating some good mismatches at certain times...

    Splitting Time: Top draft choice, CB Greg Newsome said that he has been working every day inside at the slot position, in addition, to his time on the outside. He said he estimated the split is about 60 percent on the outside and 40 percent on the inside.

    "You're trying to cross-train all of these guys," Stefanski said. "He's coming along and doing a nice job."

    The Newsom vs Greedy competition is overblown.  You need 3/4 DBs these days with all the multiple WR sets a defense can face.

    Safe to say they will both get significant playing time and you can count on at least one of the four being banged up 

  • gumby73G gumby73 wrote on last edited by

    Stefanski said he expected all of the rookies that are healthy to play on Saturday, including top pick CB Greg Newsome. Stefanski said the second-year players will also see a lot of time. 

    Case Keenum is expected to start at quarterback, followed by Kyle Lauletta. 

    Injury Update: There was no specific update by Stefanski before practice on the players who have been missing practice including, S Grant Delpit (hamstring), Tony Fields (foot), DE Myles Garrett (hamstring), G Blake Hance (ankle), S Ronnie Harrison (hamstring), WR Alexander Hollins (hamstring), DT Malik McDowell (rib), LB Montrel Meander (hamstring), Njoku (shoulder), S Sheldrick Redwine (ankle), WR Anthony Schwartz (hamstring), CB Denzel Ward (soreness).

    Cut Downs Coming: The Browns and the rest of the NFL will have to trim their roster from 90 to 85 by Tuesday Aug. 17 and then to 80 by Tuesday Aug. 24, before the final roster cut down to 53 on Tuesday Aug. 31.

    Saw some highlights on Twitter feeds.  Summary.  (Edit: video above is better)

    Njoku, Landry had big days.  Baker looked crisp he put a few balls in tight windows where Giants were in position but we made the play. We appeared to do whatever we wanted on offense minus a few would have been sacks or so Giants media mentioned.  The Giants had trouble with our playmakers. 

    The Browns media across the Board seemed to think the Browns performed well. 

    Newsome made a nice play to undercut a route from Slayton arguably the best Giants WR on a pass from Danny Dimes.  We seemed to have trouble with Evan Engram.  Lots of key guys out for us.  Looked like Giants oline 1 vs Browns second team DLine a lot. They were missing Toney and Barkley.

    Damion Square out.

    JoJo Ward in.

    I guess they are dead set on the return guy being named JoJo.

    JoJo x 2 - Square = JoJo squared

    Not all who meander are lost. And the corresponding move: JoJo Ward and Corey Taylor waived. 

    Get back JoJo…

    The Browns on Monday made the following five transactions.  

    Placed on reserve/injured:

    TE Connor Davis (shoulder)

    LB Montrel Meander (Achilles)

    K Cody Parkey (quad)

    Waived:

    WR Alexander Hollins

    The WR room.......and Felton.

    OBJ, Landry, DPJ, Schwartz are locked in.  How many slots are left?  2......3?   There's Higgins, Hodge, Davion Davis (who's been quite good), J'Marcus Bradley, Jo-Jo Natson....and, Felton?  If you put Felton with the RB's then you're keeping 4 of them because D'E hasn't done a thing wrong.  (from what we've seen, Felton seems better suited as a smurf receiver or a passing game RB motioning somewhere to try and find a LB coverage matchup)

    So, 2 or 3 WR spots and Higgins, Hodge and Davion Davis (lets assume Bradley & Natson are not in the mix).  That opens the possibility of 16 guys toting the ball around (not counting QB's).  7 WR's, 4 TE's, 4 RB's 1 FB.  Heck, let's keep Stanton too and make it a full 3rd of the roster.  🙂  

    ...I'm hoping that we don't have to let Davion Davis get snapped up by another team.
