    Also could fill a void that perhaps the coaching staff envision for Duke prior to his disgruntled trade.   Like I said, (up until this signing) we don't have anyone in the RB room that presents a receiving matchup problem like DJ did. 

    You now have that player in Braxton.    Long shot he makes the roster, but at least it IS* a shot.

      well bang on my Buckeyes 😎..welcome home Braxton..put the offensive minds of freddie & monkins together..strap on your parachutes fellas..am throwing another opinion dart here.  We have no depth at slot WR after Landry? Sheehy,Baker & Montgomery had some bad drops coming out of XY or Z including slot at Colts for all 3 days..With Callaway also gone 4 games..a vet like, Braxton can push the final 2 WR slots hard, by chasing  Ratley & the above^^ rookies wanting it..I got ObJ/Landry/Willies/Higgins/Strong as in..the only back-up slot receiver left on the roster might be Hyman..and i have not seen squat of Hyman since PS1.. Dorsey nor freddie seem to be 'not in the business' of handing out any roster positions yet..love it..

          some love stirring  pots here😁  honestly i thought AG gave us a good opinion on Ratley after drafting him out of A&M..1.He's not got track speed that runs great routes. 2.His hands are questionable.. sound like Ratley to me, the short time we've seen him

                      Miller’s a pretty straight shooter and seems to

                      be a coachable type of player.  

                      Can he kick too? WR/ KR or Callaway’s roachclip

                                If ( by some small miracle) he makes the final cut, I wouldn't rule out him being rostered as a RB.

                                  And here are his stats as a returner:

                                  Kick & Punt Returns

                                  Not very productive...but then....not a lot of chances either.   4 rushes in 2 years.  4 punt returns and 3 KO returns.   And a minor actor in the DATs passing game.

                                  So...yeah, he has a lot to prove in these two preseason games and the practices if he is going to be a member of the Cleveland Browns.

                                    I can see us keeping him as a possession wide out but then again who really knows. I am sure we will keep Higgins and Callaway we have not had a wr core like this ever. Maybe keep him until Callaway is off his 4 game suspension?

                                      I was curious to see what he has done in his couple of years in the league...so here are his stats:

                                      Receiving & Rushing

                                      And here are his stats as a returner:

                                      Kick & Punt Returns

                                      Not very productive...but then....not a lot of chances either.   4 rushes in 2 years.  4 punt returns and 3 KO returns.   And a minor actor in the DATs passing game.

                                      So...yeah, he has a lot to prove in these two preseason games and the practices if he is going to be a member of the Cleveland Browns.

                                      Yup- Gip- I had already looked up those stats... Why I posted he's an extreme long shot to make the team...... I suppose we can root for him to make it because he's an Ohio guy (OSU) and not only that, local to Dayton- Wayne HS.

                                        Just speculating here but how much of a reach would it be for him to go on the other side of the line. Say safety or CB?  He’s a helluva good athlete.
