<![CDATA[Possible upgrades for Browns off the Waiver Wire]]>Here are a few names of guys released today. Just wondering if any could be upgrades from what we have now.....I am mainly looking at backup OL...or WR....or QB or anything else that looks interesting:

OG John Moffit Eagles

OG Mike Leidtke Dolphins

OT Donald Hawkins Dolphins

WR Rasheed Bailey Eagles

WR Andre Davis Bills (not the same guy we used to have, is it?)

I will add more as they start to come out......thoughts?

Ray Rice, Daniel Thomas, Ahmad Bradshaw, or just sign Draughn to the 53... I think they like Draughn... not sure why he's any better than the 3 mentioned before him... Other than he is PS eligible...

I agree that I think they like him too......all things being equal, Id say PS eligible AND that he's been on the team for a while adds to that....so he knows the offense and they know him....and the coaches also know what they have vs throwing him away for a "maybe" guy who hasnt practiced and isnt in game shape......

You realize we signed a QB over the weekend, right?

Zombo

I was kinda out of touch....and didn't get the message about Davis.

I am happy about getting Austin.

Yeah, they basically cut his starter contract and re-signed him as a backup.

QB Waiver update sat. 4:05pm, not much better but all reports not in either. K Novak cut in SD.

I'll get flamed for the next one but this team needs to find a spot for Duron Carter.

So put him behind another one lead by Badger JT73.

Other than the obvious- Tampa looking for bodies- there's darn few claims by other teams. I have to wonder if there's some league wide gentleman's agreement that we won't claim your rookie cuts if you don't claim ours.

seems that wasn't a good idea after all.

Siemian would have been a great pickup, but he made the Broncos roster.

Born and raised Hokie here (i know, sorry) In my opinion LT is not worth checking out at qb. He was pretty good one year at Tech then sucked it up the next two and showed no signs of development.

I like this kind of college Fanboy.......... Honest, realistic and not myopic! 😛

Logan Thomas got cut by Arizona. Second year player that might be worth checking out to see if he would be worth trying to develop. The size and arm strength is there.

Red Bryant. He's 6'5", 328. He's been elite against the run the last two years.

Well I'm halfway through and he's the only player with any sort of stand out grade whatsoever. So I'm gonna stop wasting my time. Doubt we have room on the DL but someone will sign Bryant, I'm sure.
