    Too bad, I liked Cone - but it's a crowded wr group.

    Couple of interesting Pryor notes from today...

    1) He was injured....though it appears minor.....walked off under his own power....

    2) He threw a touch down on an option pass....yep.....Tee Dee Passsssssssssssss......

    I have a hard time believing that Pryor, Mayle or Benji will start over a known commodity like Hartline.

    Of that list, Pryor and Mayle have a shot. Certainly not at the early going of a season.

    I would like to point out one thing no discussed about Pryor yet, is his QB experience being an overwhelming benefit to playing receiver.

    As a QB turned WR he'll already have a great understand about route concepts, timing, reading coverage and being on the same page as McCown.

    The little mental nuances of the position that can take time for other plays to develop, Terrelle should have a strong grasp on them already.

    I talked about when Tannehill moved to receiver in 2009. Yes it works really well.

    they showed that option pass on SC live during their 'brief' browns camp report. it was pretty sweet (albeit no opposing defense. browns d played off the receivers and off players as if they had the chronic bubonic).

    Hope that's not the path to an improved Run D...

    sounds like Shelton is starting to pop a bit.....had a few nice run stops yesterday, including a thorough creaming of Draughn...

    thinking, if he plays well the rest of the week and in the scrimmage, he will be seeing some #1 reps next week.....

    Report that Danny laughs when he makes OL twitch into a false start made me smile...

    Also that he's bought lava-lavas for the D and Robertson's been wearing his.

    May just introduce the right amount of "loose" into the D to make it fun...

    You can clearly see he is a happy - go lucky guy.....and having a blast at camp....always smiling(Joe Haden - part 2).....

    Which also shows he's confident...feeling good about his play....not presssing.....etc.....

    Ya gotta love Danny Shelton. The man rocks, and he's fun at doing it.

    Didn't know he bought those for the defense. The Browns are developing

    into a TEAM. I need a Haden, Thomas, Shelton jersey.... all in one....

    Agree... signs of chemistry surfacing here and there...

    I think Orchard mentioned the lava-lavas in his recent interview when he was asked what he thought about Danny.

    Orchard's answer started with "He's crazy"... he amplified so all would know that he meant "in a good way."

    Hartline being tabbed as the playmaker in practice. Some of you had him as a potential cut risk. Lima, Oscar, Lima.

    Posted this in another thread but thought I would put it here also. Hartline is a player....

    Wish I could bud. I have a charity 4 man scramble early Saturday morning on top of working late on Friday.

    Now that I think of it, I could just take off work and try my hand at a little RB one more time. Would it be worth getting good my ass kicked by Dansby? Yep

    So we only carried 4 last year right? 5 when Gordon came back? (By the way who got cut to make that room? Tate?)

    Gabriel, Hawkins, Benjamin, and Austin last year right? Now we've got

    Gabriel

    Hawkins

    Bowe

    Those three are the locks right? Tia obviously thinks Hartline is a lock too. So two of

    Pryor

    Mayle

    Benjamin

    are getting the shaft, unless we can carry an extra. I haven't seen anyone suggest Mayle may be cut. Is that a possibility? Obviously he would probably make it to the PS.

    Tia, just don't hurt anyone. imo Mayle no worst than a hide on injury list or PS. Every media out there is so concerned about our WR position the last couple years, but this year it maybe the hardest position to cut down on. Now the word is we hide Pryor on the TE list or play TE?? ( he can't be a great blocker too can he Bo Jackson)

    We actually started with and carried 5 for most of the season(Gabriel, Hawkins, Austin, Moore, Benji)....then added #6 when we signed Byrd(who we quickly switched out for Rodney Smith).....and then finished with 7, after adding Gordon.....(I think we sent Gipson to IR to create that spot)....
