    And the full (preliminary) depth chart.

    - Pryor is listed as starting WR opposite Coleman.

    - Drango is starting RT

    - Xavier Cooper and John Hughes are the starting DEs

    - Campbell and Poyer are the safeties, unsurprisingly.

    - Cody Kessler is QB3 ahead of Austin Davis, probably means Davis won't be here in september.

    - Corey Coleman is listed as starting PR

    I was a little surprised that Poyer is ahead of Moore and a lot surprised that Drango Unchained is the man at right tackle already. Good for him.

  • Rg3 was the number 2 overall pick not too long ago. We owe it to ourselves to give him some game time and see if the geographical cure works for him. We've seen mccown bounce around enough to know that toxic situations aren't his problem. His problem is that he's a journeyman with journeyman level talent. Griffin has only played for one team and it's entirely possible that the situation just went bad.

  • Glad to see Cooper and Hughes are [finally] where I thought they'd be.. Starting DE.

    Nassib and Ogbah and Schobert are so far back? Especially.. Schobert behind Mingo?

    Scooby is 3rd string.. behind a Tuggle not named Jessie? Can't believe that will stay.

    Louis is the highest rookie WR not named Coleman.. interesting.

    Kindred over Desir? Interesting.. I thought Desir had better quickness.

    Mathews not the #2 center?

    Gotta love Telfer as the unexpected #2TE..

    I swear I'll punch something if the Browns carry a FB this year, neither of those guys are NFL players..

    Good thoughts, I think in the past Hue has used an H-back type of guy so maybe they will ditch the fullbacks and keep an extra guy listed as a TE.

    Has anyone that was watched the scrimmages noticed any FB action?

    Shon Coleman is still recovering from knee surgery... no? Taking it slow with him.

    He claims it feels great but the training staff could be exercising some caution.

  • Hope Josh stays right where he is for a few years. Dude is a great back up QB and vet.

    Love listening to guys bag on him, usually people that watch three games a year.

    He was in the top 5 of QB's at the beginning of the season last year when he was healthy throwing to a midget squad, before Mikey P. fed him through the meat grinder and he still refused to come out.

    Does he have a canon? No. Could be win a ton of games and keep you competitive? Yep.

    I feel like being competitive is often overlooked... Sure you want that Franchise QB some day, but what happens when you don't have one and you play like shit all year? The rest of the team is stagnant and nobody progresses. And you get to watch 4 different QB's a year...

    Giving Josh up for a 4th rounder that plays on the punt return team? Pass.

    The top 5 of QBs at the beginning of the season? How? He got injured on the first drive.

  • You Whiney ass fucks.

    What exactly did you expect? Jesus Christ himself isn't going to be a qb and it's that kind of a miracle to resserect this franchise. You bitch and moan about every qb then when you get one you act like he isn't deserving.

    Who else? Who else is or was available to win games for the Browns. Ok say you draft one...it hasn't worked since the 80's for you. Ok. Get a hot FA with hardly any games under their belt and overpay them. Ya ok.

    So RG3 comes in and you complain about the qb situation and McCown are you kidding me? He's hurt all the time too. Let the season play out because what your problem is ...you're so used to losing you count yourselves out before the game even starts, grow some balls and when something doesn't work out your way at least be accountable that you can't switch teams and root for a perineal loser.

    I like the Browns but this negative thinking is driving me nuts!

  • Whiney? Where? Just seeing evaluations... and not even very harsh ones.

    Apparently "you can't handle the truth."

    Ya I got a shit ton of em. If you weren't in Tx we'd get pilled up. Well for a while then I get pissed.

    We'll find out soon enough if a change of scenery makes Griffin the rookie sensation he was. If not, we draft one next year. We had our opportunity to draft a "franchise quarterback" in Wentz- and passed on the opportunity. It will remain to be seen if the extra draft picks we got were worth it.

    If he hasn't learned to read defenses, and go through his progressions- that's a pretty accurate assessment.

    And that is the key... something a "change of scenery" does little to improve.

    My lone hope is that Hue cuts down the field with roll-outs as Shanny Sr. did RG's rookie year.

  • RG3 will be fine.

  • RG III earned it, and that's what matters to me. Players saw it, coaches saw it, and even many sports writers saw it. RG III improved to the point to where he was the obvious choice, and the most telling stat to me was when I heard that RG III hasn't turned it over at all during scrimmages or 11 on 11's. That is absurd. Has been perfect? Hell no, of course not. But has he been taking care of the ball and working his ass off? Yes.
