Fixed? We had kitchen and solomon last year; T Williams is new. Oh, and that QB fella.

day 2 is wrapping up...some quick notes...
Connor Shaw was the best QB for the second day in a row....all with the #3's....
Manziel was excellent today!.....6-7 with a sack....
McCown was kind of eh....but def snapped off some great passes....much better arm strength than we saw last year
Crowell ran with #1's today and looked great!
Duke also looking very sharp....
Pryor had another strong day and caught several from JFF.....already running with the 2's.....
Bowe also had a great day and made a couple 'wow' catches....

You have to love Pet's consistency. Both of this year's #1's have to earn reps with the 1's...

I wouldn't be surprised one bit if Shaw manages to be number 2 on the depth start come real game time. Kid's got moxie.

I admire Shaw. Here he has Clowney coming after him the whole game.
22 of 25 passes. Even caught a pass for a TD.
Took a major hit - didn't slide....

Love what I'm hearing about Pryor. His growth and personal time spent with Moss, Brown and coaches will pay dividends.
edit: I don't suppose anyone has tickets to a weekend training camp? I looked a little late and they're all gone. If anyone has an extra or two, I'd gladly shell you a few
duckets for them.

alrighty then.....Day #1 of camp is officially in the books.....
todays training camp/Browns Daily notes....highlights....lowlights....
Haden and Tramon Williams were very sharp and made the O's day very difficult....
Pryor looked good and caught the ball well....
Benji also had a very solid day and looks to be giving a lil extra effort....
More raves for Gabriel too.....
Mayle struggled with some drops, but still has some lingering discomfort with the thumb...
Cam Erving working exclusively with 2nd team...Pettine says first team is solid, so he's gotta earn those reps...
Johnny had a rough 1st day and did not throw the ball well...
Shaw and McCown looked pretty good....tho McCown and Crow missed on a handoff.....(Crow had a few of these last year too)
AB spend the whole day on the D line...no LB reps....
Taylor sat out and did not participate in the conditioning test......hmmmm....
Mack is taking full reps and looking fine......
And....so went day #1.....

Obviously a stand-in. LOL!
Is Pryor a faster version of Mike Evans for JF? How many of those were completed to him? Or was he spreading it around today?
-
Dwayne Bowe made some bold statements today.....
On Josh McCown......
"He's showing all the potential of being a top-five quarterback in the NFL," Bowe said of McCown. "I see him as one of the best I have [played with]. He's making great throws, smart throws and he's mobile in the pocket, more than people think. I think he's going to surprise a lot of people."
"Oh, my God. We're going to be the sleepers," Bowe said. "Look at my numbers last year and then look at my years four years prior to that. I led the league. It's not about what you did last year. It's about what you're doing now. The way he's performing out here, it's unbelievable, making tight throws, trusting his receivers."
And on Terrell Pryor.....
"I have never seen a quarterback transition from quarterback to receiver in two practices and do as good as he did -- ever," Bowe said. "But he's making it look so easy that he's starting to scare me. He's going to be really, really good. People think he's just going to come in and be a body. But he's actually going to play here and make plays for this team."

Obviously a stand-in. LOL!
....I knew this would put a smile on your face.....
Hoping to see more of the same going forward........build back a little confidence and things could get interesting...

Let's get some pads on and play something close to live action football, than things could get interesting in some camp battles. Players talking up other teammates talent, is a good thing. But even better is a positive team media and national media reporting good things also. It sounds like a good start.
