    I saw Kirksey ahead of Robertson and thought it was interesting. Missed Lewis over Shaw, but I guess it's just based on experience.

    Has anybody heard anything about Housler? Could he be cut?

    Haven't heard too much about him overall...do know he's not lighting it up, and compared to the others, has had some drops.....

      Another interesting tidbit is the kicking situation...don't know if that means anything though. Anyone has to be better than the wiener Billy Cundiff.

        Looking at the D line.....and assuming Shelton will move up to starter.....our "back up" line is even looking good....

        John Hughes.....Phil Taylor.....A. Bryant(or Cooper)....

          I don't see Lewis over Shaw, unless it's his experience.

          But the surprise to me, is the lb reilly. I hadn't heard of that signing.

            Ok...Browns have issued their first depth chart....not too many surprises....but a couple notables....

            1) Christian Kirksey is listed ahead of Robertson....

            2) Johnson Bademosi listed as a CB, instead of safety....

            3) Thad Lewis listed ahead of Connor Shaw(sneaky)...

            4) Barnidge listed as the starter at TE (Housler listed 3rd)

            5) Moore still listed as #1 KR.....

            6) AB listed at DE....and ahead of X Cooper..

            Told you that you had to lose one of your 5 Safeties... 😛

            Orchard behind Krugs on one side while Solomon is penciled in as starter on the opposite?

            It's a puzzlement...

                maybe they're gonna downplay Shaw just to get him to the PS.....make him fourth-listed behind Thad-and no one will want him???

                (hence, my sneaky? comment)

                        yep....just took a grain of salt myself...

                        At this time last year....Tate, Burleson, Pinkston, Gilbert, Kitchen, Ruben and Oby were all listed as the #1 at their positions.....

                        And at the very bottom, without a chance were.... Crowell, Gabriel, Chas Johnson, Shaw, Kwaun and Desir....

                          We definitely have the depth to feel good about what we will have 2 deep.

                          Injuries and belly cargo decide who claims/loses the final dline roster spots.

                              And every change is injury related... mostly those who have gotten hurt since the 1st edition, but a couple returning to practice including Pryor. Not a single merit-based change...

                              Speaking of 1st Edition...

                              Kenny Rogers... SuperFreak.... who'da thunk it?

                                that's the only play he looked bad on. other than that the kid looked like edelman during the pat's playoff<superbowl run last year. caught everything even remotely close to him. if we don't keep him they'll be plenty of takers on that waiver wire.

                                  i couldn't be more happier about what farmer did with the special teams esp. the kicker and punter. i saw that as a huge prob last year and it shows me that farmer is one smart cookie to flush those clowns and reboot in 2015.

                                    Think about all the positions on this roster that have a situational rotations like our defensive line in particular. The only guys I'm guessing have a traditional first string play every down lock (barring injury) are:

                                    Josh McCown

                                    Joe Thomas

                                    Joel Bitonio

                                    Alex Mack

                                    John Greco

                                    Oracle

                                    Joe Haden

                                    Tramon Williams

                                    Donte Whitner

                                    Tashaun Gipson

                                    Kruger played through lower back pain last year so it would be nice to see him getting off the field more frequently. Just guessing here, but I think the staff wants that too. Last year I would have listed Dansby above; but Robertson gave us virtually no drop off at all. My gut says Dansby comes off the field in some situations this year.

                                      Agree with the sentiment, but I just don't see the OLB depth to rest Krugs.

                                      As for Dansby I agree on the play of Kirksey/ Robertson, but wonder about the play calling.

                                        maybe rotate them at wr....?

                                        After last seasons lil trick play with JFF, I say we put Pryor in at qb and have him throw to Johnny on a fly route........

                                          Good catch. Actually, there's a very good chance we Pryor-itize our 2 pt conversion and possibly some short yardage/goal line situations. QB isn't even a lock for all situations.

                                          As for Krugs, it looks like they've made effort to add depth so time will tell.

                                          Dansby is still available between series and throughout the week to offer any help like he was last year. This gets all taken care of in the film room and practices leading up to every pre-snap formation and down-n-distance tendency anticipated. Even better, we're only talking about a few plays here and there so I don't see it as an issue at this time.
