Training Camp Notes, Edition #1
-
Figure we'll start over once in a while...
1. Sounds to me from several tweets and reports that Weeden was really bad in the first half, got way better later. Still... a little unnerving for me.
2. Richardson looked awesome.
3. Greco and Lauvao the guards, not Pinkston and Greco as I expect. We'll see.
4. Gordon limped off with some kind of cramp.
5. David Nelson cleared, probably practices today. What a shocker (!). He's 6'5", had 61/658 in his only season with Bills, and he never drops the ball. If he hadn't gotten hurt, he'd be seen as a huge get, as huge as Bess. Nice work, Banner.

I understand there may some injury issue with Phil Taylor. Know anything?
-
Is anyone one attending camp this year? I know some of you guys have gone in the past.
Mik used to attend regularly until Browns security gave him a lifetime banishment...lol

Weekly might make sense...
On Nelson... You're sighting his 2011 stats. Pro football ref has him with Bills 3 years (including injury year in 2012).
Total stats were 32 games/ 17 starts/ 94 rec/ 1042 yds/ 11.1 ypc/ 8 TD

If we signed him for league minimum ($350k-ish), looks like a worthwhile shot to me. Clearly Bills were not willing to risk $1.3 mil to lock him up. Completely torn ACL in a non-contact situation is off-putting, but Dr. Andrews did the surgury and Nelson seems like a high character guy, so worth a shot.

Taylor is more britle than our star RB... Clevelandbrowns.com reports a strained calf muscle suffered a week and a half ago...
Hopefully he can get that squared away and be ready to play NT all season. Hughes is taking 1st team reps, which doesn't bother me. He's a good fit at that position as well.

Kellen Davis and Chris Faulk are the other two missing practice... Davis with a slight knee strain. Faulk still recovering from knee injury. He might start the year on IR, so we can keep him around...
Nelson was cleared to practice today, albeit probably a light workout.
Any news on Gordon yet?

It was just a cramp up yesterday. Mentions on twitter that he is practicing normally today.

Owens and Skrine are rotating in at #2. McFadden playing with second team.
Slaughter and Bademosi are 2nd team safeties.

Reports are that all the QBs are throwing INTs and the WRs are dropping balls... Norv chewing some of the guys out in the last hour, according to Nate Ulrich.
Well, it's either REALLY good DB play, or poor QB/WR play... hopefully it's the former...
Long way to go still. Chud said Weeden is progressing, and he really likes Haden and Gipson...

Collective Quote From the Homer-tards..............
"Ghoolie, you are an idiot, don't you realize we have the best QB we hve had yet? Don't you realize that our WR corps is very special?
Yes, once again, I am wrong. This business of the QBs looking bad and our WRs dropping balls is REALLY GOOD NEWS, and it is making me look pretty Stupid.
BY all means, lets spend the entire training camp teaching men who have been catching footballs all their lives, to ahhhhh do what? Oh, yeah, learn to play catch.
YESSSS, OH MY GOD YES, I have really underestimated this wunderkind.

Is it Coke or Crack Ghoolie? I don't want the shit you smoke.

It was the no Alcohol/Cigs/drugs part.

My fear about Weeds is that it all looks very different when defenses start getting up in his grill. We'll see... it's very early. DraftBrowns said the DBs clearly won the day yesterday which means the QBs didn't, but part of that was a tweaked Gordon not running sharp routes or able to go full speed.
Phil Taylor is practicing today and fine. Just a slight calf strain. Not a biggie.
Craig Robertson is getting SO much love. Good to hear because I got a football woody for him last year. His 10-yard split has to be insane. He looks like my son playing linebacker (!), shot out of a cannon.

Unnamed player carted off field and transported by ambulance to hospital.

Browns' Ryan Miller hospitalizedUpdated: July 27, 2013, 5:36 PM ETAssociated Press
BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns offensive lineman Ryan Miller has been taken to the hospital after being carted off the field during practice.
A team spokesman said the player is "awake, alert and has movement in all four extremities."
Cleveland's players, wearing shoulder pads for the first time in training camp, were doing one-on-one drills inside the team's indoor facility when the player wound up on the turf. It's not known if he was injured or collapsed.
As medical personnel rushed in, the music inside the field house was turned off and several Browns players took a knee. After the player was immobilized and strapped to a backboard, the team and coaching staff huddled around the player and prayed.
