Callaway Cited for Marijuana Possession

Dorsey said talent wise the best WR in the draft .....
Dorsey also says "We are surrounded by coaches & staff that can mentor his off the field issues" Who & Where do these people reside in a NFL Clubhouse? Is there a sign on the door? This new WR coach Adam Henry must be on a higher cloud than QB Jesus..

There are the facts Taco
the facts are the guy missed the entire year. We don't know where he woud have come out.
He's smaller than ridley and not as polished a route runner. Obviously not as accomplished. No reason to think, even if he didnt have tremendous character concerns, he would have been drafted right with ridley. And ridley barely fit in the end of the first round.

calloway's character issues extend to more than just off the field. He's a bad apple

Lets put it this way: Look at the number of former first round Browns draft picks on this roster? Only like Coleman.....and the three from last year are still on this team.
So....the Browns first round draft pick failures have been epic.
If this guy....a 4th rounder, fails.....it will not come anywhere near to being "epic". It would only be a footnote on a single page.

And meanwhile on the bench Mayfield spends extra time with Ratley both learning all about NFL route trees together on the 2nd/3rd O team. One of the reasons JM had such a connection with Evans is that they both spent a year together on the scout team as redshirts developing a special connection you could not duplicate had either not redshirted.

He failed the Shmucking combine drug test, that's not even close to "turning himself around." Whatever you gotta do to rationalize the Brown's drafting pieces of Sheet I guess.
I will give you this, the comment that we did extensive background checks that made us comfortable with the pick does clash significantly with the fact he failed the Combine test. The reality is they believe they can get him under control. If they do they scored a first round talent and we have a top 3 receiving corp. If they don't we flush a 4th rounder. not a lot of risk there

It does bear reminding that the failure was a diluted sample failure same as Peppers last season and not a "Substance X Threshold" failure.
That said, unlike Peppers, there's a lot more baggage with this kid... a lot more...

Antonio Brown has 'special affinity' for kids from Miami, will mentor Browns' Antonio Callaway
Antonio Callaway was widely considered one of the most talented wide receivers in the 2018 NFL Draft. There was, however, never an expectation that he'd be picked as early as his talent would suggest, because he's had so many issues off the field.
Callaway was suspended by the University of Florida for allegedly using stolen credit card information to fund bookstore accounts. He was investigated for sexual assault. (A Title IX hearing officer cleared him of the allegations.) He was cited with misdemeanor marijuana possession, and he failed a drug test at the combine with what he says was a diluted sample.
Now that he's in the league, Callaway has a new mentor in one of his rivals: Steelerswide receiver Antonio Brown. Brown even attended Callaway's draft day party.
The new Browns wideout is from the same South Florida area as Brown, and Callaway's agent says that's what inspired the connection. "He has a special affinity for the kids that are from here," Malki Kawa told ESPN.com. "He's showing him not only what it takes to be a pro, but be one of the best."
In turn, Callaway is trying to show Brown some stuff, too. "[Callaway] is trying to show Antonio that there's a difference in him," Kawa said. "And all the kids [Brown] talks to, he can tell them he was a troubled guy, too -- 'I've had my struggles, but look what I'm doing, look how my life has changed for the better, the fruits of my labor.' He shows young players this is attainable, this is reachable."
Only time will tell if the Browns' investment in Callaway proves worthwhile, but having Brown in his corner can probably only help his chances. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/antonio-brown-has-special-affinity-for-kids-from-miami-will-mentor-browns-antonio-callaway/

Does this mean we are going to have to like a Steeler?

I never disliked Antonio Brown. A 6th rounder who became arguably the best WR in the league?
I just never liked the fact that he killed us constantly.....and that the Browns deployed either useless players or useless schemes to try to deal with him.
( I don't know that we actually personally dislike any Steeler player...well...maybe BR and James HGHarrison.....we just hate the fact that they wear that uniform). We now have a couple of former Steelers on the Browns, don't we? Hubbard? Anyone else?

Beau Bell anyone? Did remember he was our 4th round pick. Still playing in the Arena League.

All we have to do is keep Callaway and Gordon clean until after the new CBA is agreed on. Most assuredly after that one they will be able to blaze away lol. I think Dorsey may be banking on this.

Might want to keep Callaway away from credit cards... and women.... and known criminals too....

Dorsey stated in a presser "a little birdie told him" he needed to move up to land Cab Calloway..That team he may have had to jump may have been the Jets..Calloway had Private visits with Bengals(4.12).Cowboys(4.16).Jets(4.7)Browns moved up from 4.14 to 4.5 to catch a Cab. Cab also visited Eagles(4.25) at Combine...RB Nick Chubb Had Private Visits with TB(2.6),Falcons(2.26).Panthers(2.23) & met with Jets at Combine trading it's 2nd round pick..Browns took N.Chubb at 2.3 while TB ended up with a non-visited Ronald Jones at 2.6..LB G.Avery had 3 Private Visits with Zona(0 5th round pick).Colts(5.22).Ravens(5.25).Browns take Avery at 5.13..WR D. Ratley, 1 Private Visit.. Denver(6.9)Browns take off board at 6.1..

Plant foot... probably a fascia strain. To be expected after putting in tons of work during the draft then resting. Don't see him pulling up like it's a hammy or anything.
