    Spent a few minutes perusing the site, and apparently every player gets a listing, with some seemingly getting more action than others. Tashaun Gipson is scandalous! Intersting stuff...

    Anyway, a serious reply. Cameron is a lock. I think Dray makes it as they brought him in to be the bruising blocking bookend.

    TE 3 is between Barnidge and Gray. I know the reports are that Gray is trying FB out for size, but l also heard he's catching the ball well. Seems to me if he's a good enough blocker to play FB, and he can catch, might be a better fit for TE. So l say he edges out Barnidge, despite his exploits with the ladies.

    Still not sold on the FB thing, like if they'll get one they like enough to keep. Agnew is l think the only true FB on the roster, so l give him the nod if they take one.

  • I hope Gray wins the fullback job. All kinds of interesting ways he can be a weapon, but lead blocking isnt for everyone.

  • I don't know. It's Cameron then everybody else at this point.

    I hope we get another good TE in next years draft. My biggest needs are WR/TE/FB.

    Cameron is amazing and I'm looking for an encore performance this year, possibly even out doing last year with the QB carousel. He need to continue to improve and I think he'll be solid.

    I'm only just a little afraid that injury could derail the entire position. That's why we need to invest in another stud TE.

    Need a bruiser at FB(one that can block and catch...actually, maybe Crowell could be that guy?- don't know much about him other than his measurables).

  • Anyone stat handy that knows Cameron's numbers for the 2.2 games Hoyed played? I remember his stats seemed to decline as the season went on. I wondered how his Hoyer mumbers compared to his non-Hoyer numbers.

    Fullback hasta be like playing special teams-lite on every down. Take a running start and plow into some guy. And then there's that catching the ball sometimes thing.

    The Minny game was the most TDs he had all year - 3

    The Cincy game was the most catches he had all year - 10

    16 catches 157 yards 4 TDs in 2 games w/ Hoyer (8 / 78.5 avg)

    90 catches 1019 yards 4 TDs in 13 other games (6.9 / 78.4 avg)

    Not a huge difference other than TD catches. Also, his numbers were pretty consistent throughout the season. It's pretty obvious though that he will be a major factor and could have an even bigger season with more consistent QB play, if that's what you're getting at...

  • Cameron, Dray, Barnridge TE

    Gray FB

  • I wish the Browns would have drafted Jay Prosch.

  • He went to the Texans in the sixth round.

  • does shanty even utilize a FB in his system?

    save the roster spot.

    Redskins fullback was used as an actual blocking back. 250 LBer

    The oby experiment was an unmitigated disaster.

    Rest assured ... We will have a fullback on the roster.

    Cool, thanks for that. Yeah, not a huge difference except for TDs. Averaged 8 catches a game with Hoyer, and roughly 7 with everyone else. Small sample size sure, but tells me Hoyer looks his way when the zone turns red.

  • Cameron,Dray,Barnidge, and Gray make the team. The others are toast.

    Bank it.

    Not sure I am understanding your stats, Cameron did not catch 106 passes or have 1176 yards receiving, was this over two seasons?
