  • What do you expect from this guy this year?

  • To be healthy the whole season and perform and a high level.

  • if this guy remains healthy how good can he be? Loved watching him play in the season before

  • Ward is overrated by fans.

    He's a solid starter,not a great tackler not a ball hawk, below average in coverage.

    He's a hitter and hitters at safety are not near as valuable as they were 20 years ago.

    He's not a cornerstone player he's a roleplayer so lower your expectations and hope he doesn't get injured...again.

  • Id like to see him lay out some stillers and ravens like he did colts buddy shipley. Why not? They'd do it to our guys. The Browns need to have a guy who can return the favor when a guy like Harrison hits one of our guys.

    Who let Buzz Killington in?

  • man i'm praying (and i'm not even religious) that this guy stays healthy. i think he was a solid pick for us and would like to see him support more against the run BUT love the guy.

  • I'm looking forward to seeing this guy healthy for a full season - especially in our "newish" defensive team. I think Ward is loved beyond his contribution because of his physical style of play - who doesn't like to see a safety put the hit on someone? I know I love it. However I'm not sure he is a very fluid athlete because of his size (bit short) and compensatory bulk. I believe he was tried out at Corner in college but his vert was nowehere near good enough and he had pretty bad hands - so I think he will always be a physical style safety and solid in man to man but maybe plays a little deep to compensate for lack of athleticism. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing him back on the field this year.

    I'm not sure I have expressed myself very well here but my humble summary is he's a banger not a hawk. 🙂

    Ward is a good tackler and is good in run support. He isn't great in coverage, but that isn't overly expected when you draft a hard hitting safety..
