    ....for a moment anyway.

    Lets talk about what is plaguing this Camp.#1.DROPS-started with Njoku.(1 nice catch from Hogan today) has never stopped with WR's thru camp. Now it was DeValves turn today. #2. Red Zone drill INTERCEPTIONS- 2 more today on Kessler & Brock. On Brock's, How many times does a pass have to hit off our WR's one hand to only be deflected to today Boddie-Calhoun? imo, We have a major concern on our hands after Britt,Coleman than a non-proven Randall Hall..has anybody heard Al Saunders address WR's at the podium lately? (not like we were ever fooled at this position 😉)

  • When Gordon gets reinstated we'll have him and Coleman and Britt as legitimate weapons and we're still bringing along Louis, Higgins and Payton. We will be fine at WR. The sky is not falling guys.

    Will Gordon get a couple of token games this year? 🥷

    Gumby - Defenses always come along faster than offenses at the start of each season. I'll worry about that if it persists past the preseason games.

    Yeah, many of us have been concerned about the WR position since Ray Farmer took over and indicated that he didn't value the position that much.

    Our new guys have drafted a ton of receivers showing a better understanding of today's NFL game...but the position remains a weak area (at this point in time).

    and when Santa Claus is signed, he, Gordon, Coleman, Britt and Jerry Rice will make a formidable quintet

    Well, the odds of Gordon getting reinstated are slightly better than you getting hit by a meteor. Even if he gets reinstated- a big IF. AND the Browns will put him on the active roster- an even bigger IF. He's going to be so far behind the rest of the WR, he'll be darn near useless, short of running fly patterns to distract the defense.

    Or when Bruce Smith unretires & suits up to play for the Browns- just think of that front four. I only bring that up because we finally got a 30 second blurb on NFLN. Bruce is in Berea tutoring his star pupil Myles. 🙂

    Who is this Gordon fella you speak of 😉. Seems that we may not see the just simple it down version from Hue on his sense-less shifting. Seems like Williams does make his guys show him his system expectations at both of Williams given defensive positions. Des sounds like the O'Neil sub-packages are back? Peppers 2nd position FS? sounds like the roaming WildDawg position to me? Even Collins wanted a shot at FS. Williams for 16 game weeks with this media..popcorn anyone?

    Well, WR is one of the biggest issues on this team.

    AGain, I go back to the equity issue which still burns my fucking all: Leveon Bell misses 3 games for as many dope violations as Gordon.,...he gets 3 games, Gordon gets 3 years. And now Bell is holding out for more money?

  • What position has Bryant been taking? I thought he'd be better at Ogbah's position - force the young guy to get better to beat him.

    Start for a few games then be passed, and finish the season as the first DL sub

    Just saw an article on him earlier today getting some first team reps at DT alongside Shelton.

    3tech. Ogbah isn't Dez' competition though, Ogunjobi is.

  • Really good interview with "coach" Joe Thomas. Worth listening to the entire interview.

    Tokin' games, maybe.

  • Hue today elevated Myles to first team, said he couldn't put it off any longer.

    No secret here. It's like a pretend hurdle. As if this kid has to even practice to be a starter. He is young, huge, fit and fast. He will cause problems for opposing offenses. I hope the kid stays healthy and motivated. I hope JT gets to go to a few playoff games. He certainly has taken his share of shit with this shit franchise.

  • Not sure if your B-a-l-o-n-e-y has a first name? 😉 but CockyBra'Weiner has been designated to 2nd team reps most of camp. Stated he wanted to be the starter, once b4 camp. Than has put his head down & has not bitched once since. But Bra'Weiner has done a pretty fair job with the table scraps not seeing many 1 reps.(Payton,Hall even Higgins).This camp still has such a long way to go.

    Dom gummit - I had beverage in my mouth up until I got to the "when Santa Claus is signed" part.

  • https://www.dawgsbynature.com/2017/8/5/16102602/cleveland-browns-saturday-roster-moves leaves us to wonder if Njoku back is a issue? We also may have lost some time with WR Jordan Leslie to a concussion today? (just when we thought we had a sleeper at WR 🙁)

  • I see that the Browns-Giants preseason game on Mon. Aug. 21 is being carried nationally on ESPN @ 8pm eastern.

    Seems like they were forced to here gip. Mario Alford has done nothing at WR in camp & his catching a punt even got worse. His true only chance was taking a WR spot now with Peppers in house.Jordan Leslie got concrushed (concussion) by either Kessler laying him out on a in route into Dominique Alexander or Dom has a problem with non contact practices over his middle. WR James Wright from Natty got a bruised lung(gotta hurt), 4-6 weeks at least. Cam "no Dr J" Erving had a bruised lung but survived a roster spot..damn shame..WR, were at least down 2 & gained 1..watch Tennessee, their loaded at WR, can't see they can keep all of them. McCourty should know them well
