Born and raised Hokie here (i know, sorry) In my opinion LT is not worth checking out at qb. He was pretty good one year at Tech then sucked it up the next two and showed no signs of development.

I like this kind of college Fanboy.......... Honest, realistic and not myopic!

Browns claimed Tackle Austin Pasztor from the jags

I retract my idea about Zac Dysert - doesn't seem to see the field well enough for the pros..

seems that wasn't a good idea after all.

Siemian would have been a great pickup, but he made the Broncos roster.

Other than the obvious- Tampa looking for bodies- there's darn few claims by other teams. I have to wonder if there's some league wide gentleman's agreement that we won't claim your rookie cuts if you don't claim ours.

Montee Ball, anyone?

Nope..He's just another overrated Wisconsin back courtesy of the finest college OL in the country.

So put him behind another one lead by Badger JT73.

Pierre Thomas or Jonas Gray are the only two RB's with remaining potential to make an impact. I'll get flamed for the next one but this team needs to find a spot for Duron Carter.

Matt Cassell signed by Bills? Like, just now. Before you posted.

Yeah, they basically cut his starter contract and re-signed him as a backup.

Then How about Matt Flynn? He did well in Green Bay's modified WCO....how about the modified WCO the Browns run.

You realize we signed a QB over the weekend, right?

I was kinda out of touch....and didn't get the message about Davis.

I am happy about getting Austin.

Ray Rice, Daniel Thomas, Ahmad Bradshaw, or just sign Draughn to the 53... I think they like Draughn... not sure why he's any better than the 3 mentioned before him... Other than he is PS eligible...

I agree that I think they like him too......all things being equal, Id say PS eligible AND that he's been on the team for a while adds to that....so he knows the offense and they know him....and the coaches also know what they have vs throwing him away for a "maybe" guy who hasnt practiced and isnt in game shape......
