  • So our #3 draft pick QB is now gone. And someone who got no fanfare whatsoever makes the team. Taller and faster. Makes sense in the long run.

    EDIT: He's on IR

    I just read that news. While it's within the rules, wow something must be churning in the background.

    AB is always tinkering with the back end of the roster. Maybe he's shopping DG or crazier yet, SS.

  • Looks like the Browns saved a roster spot by cutting Punt Returner Larvadain. Not surprised because I said early on that KC Concepcion would take over those duties as well as WR and give them an extra spot to use. Looks like that's what they did.

    EDIT: Looking at ESPN Depth Chart looks like Bond will be the punt returner instead of KC. That will last maybe a few games before they realize they have a better one on the team I'll bet.

    Actually I'd prefer my return men not be from the 1st round of a draft.

    Yeah, he's on IR designated to return with a back issue supposedly. There was a little movement involving backup QB's between the Jets & Dolphins. And Gabriel is a guy mentioned occasionally when backup QB's are mentioned for various teams. Seems like Berry knows he got too many QB's that he doesn't want to just give away for free so he's doing anything in his power to keep them all protected until someone wants to trade for one of 'em.

  • What position(s) do we think will be brought in on Monday? -- I'd be thinking DE/DL, C, CB. Maybe TE, but we do have a FB.

    Guys I'd like to see get to our PS:

    Lavardaine (even though I don't like midgets in the nfl, he's been with us and can slide right in if needed), Floriea (another little guy, but he's performed well for us each of the last 2 preseasons), Logan Fano (might possess good dna), RB's Marshall & Booth, CB Trey Avery

    Yeah, I edited that to reflect Bond will be returning punts. I just bet it won't last.

    I dare say I think Zak Zinter deserved to make the team. Even though he got Barney Fife'd for a holding call - the replay showed both his hands were placed on the front of the DL's shoulder pads (and 1 of his hands was clenching a handfull of opponent's jersey) which can be called on virtually any play. There was another holding call that was mistakenly given to Zinter before the commentator corrected it a play or so later assigning it to another OL/teammate's jersey #. That injury he suffered vs Ohio State was a compound fracture on 2 different bones in the lower leg at the end of November in his final season of college football. I was shocked he was cleared for full contact the 1st day of training camp. This was a good enough football player to command the amount of respect needed to be voted as a Team Captain of an Unbeaten National Champion; so I'm glad the Browns exercised some patience and understanding of the psychological portion of a full recovery. I liked what I've seen this year that I haven't been able to see from him his 1st 2 years. I also think our 6th round Wypler Snapper from Ohio State has played like a keeper (after his previous bouts with injuries in the the past).

    I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!"

    I hear ya Aggies.? We now have one of college football's elite return men from last year - but in Cleveland we're saving him for the forward pass only? Like it says on a frozen juice can "CONCENTRATE"...

    I think we're going to see Hall Jr a lot more as a pass rushing DE after what we saw in preseason. I think it's a good move over.

    So we're going to have a DT play DE. We'll have to see how that works out. If he stays healthy long enough.

    He's pretty damn quick & fast now and has power enough to get through or around OTs. (CORRECTED TYPO)

  • Browns add veteran cornerback after parting ways with Michael Coats Jr.

    First reported by The Ringer’s Tom Pelissero, the Browns signed veteran cornerback Noah Igbinoghene to replace Coats. Igbinoghene is a former first-round pick from the 2020 NFL Draft, selected by the Miami Dolphins. The former Auburn standout never found his footing in three seasons with Miami and struggled to carve out a role in Brian Flores’ defense.
