<![CDATA[Veteran, OTA's & Rookie Camp Notes]]>C. Coleman signs 4 year deal pending number 11.65M. or close. WR's Payton, Wiggins, DB Caldwell, OL Drango & Scooby Wright Have all signed Contracts. All from BR & Quotes from Hue... Shon Coleman- MCL- Did not participate.Taking it slow, but he's ready. Kessler had a good Day 1. First thing Hue noticed was a bunch of Rookie's out of Shape & Went right after the First Round Pick Cory Coleman as a example. Hue is pushing it on Al Saunder to whip these kids into shape. Mike Matthews- Hue not concerned about size, he can play but will need to earn his way. Danny Shelton down 15 pounds..

Instant impact WR, and Coleman is just one of the guys they drafted. Whole different look

to the Browns' offense right there.

Obviously he's fast, and he's going to look amazing without pads on, but I heard some excellent tidbits about him. Specifically, I love hearing how fast Coleman is ALL THE TIME. He's fast coming out of breaks, he's fast off the line, and he possesses the ability to keep defenders on their heels. Nathan Zegura stated that one route Coleman didn't really run in college was the "deep come back route", and he's been working hard on this specific route in minicamp. Zegura said he had defenders on their heels time and time again because they had to respect his deep speed, so Coleman routinely got open. (this is the route where the WR basically fakes like he's going for a deep fly route, and then suddenly puts the brakes on and comes back to the ball)

I also love hearing multiple people saying how Ogbah looks "really big and really fast". LOL. Man, how bad do we need a studly pass rusher? I wonder if the emergence of a pass rusher will help Kruger get into double digits again?

Hollywood Higgins has made flashes consistently, and that's a good sign. I've read several writers that project him as a starter.

Schobert and Scooby are both impressing as well.

I would note also that in Miami, as in College Station, his players loved him.

And that got him fired in the Incognito affair at Miami. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000326599/article/jim-turner-fired-by-miami-dolphins-after-wells-report

Yeah, real productive for the OL poor Phins after that happened.

5 straight playoff appearances. Yeah, what a disaster. And how'd it work out for Pittsburgh?

What's not productive is a team full of eunuchs, as the old timers so desire.

My friend that played at OSU has told me they had mini scuffles on nearly every play in practice. I've seen film of LSU's practices and it's the same kind of thing every time they bust out the "big cat drill." I used to report on A&M's practices and remember watching a fight between OLs and Jim Turner (of 3 first rounders in a 3 year span coached fame) was positively giddy.

The teaching of our previous downfalls continues. Understanding Situational Football. Being Poised enough to understand self-inflicted wounds are a major part of this game & now turning those happening into part of a winning formula. Hue may know this team better than some fans 😉. Coons out, weary leg will lead to tweak. Former Bucs Patrick Murray was brought in as walk-on b4 camp. JT has day off. Not missing a snap in 9 yrs. & 8959 total snaps, Hue's not changing a thing VK. Couple interesting HueJax quotes. Reporter told Hue "looked like McCown was throwing ball better than any QB" Hue response "Your entitled to your opinion." 😮. Later HuJax quotes "RG3 don't have any reservations about anything in our offense HE can't do" 😍. For our camp fighting fans. Hue quotes "can't fight in game, (so sounds like) OL Conor Boffelli will not be allowed to do so at practice either" Ding! Ding!

Vet. Camp did start today. So what would be wrong with RG3 "hanging one just a bit outside". the fence that is. RG3 decided to throw one away today. Cleared a 16 foot fence. Some say he can't hit the broad side of a barn. But how about a Garage 😎. Of course RG3 took it in high spirits with a fist pump & a Yes!!.. Kessler working with QB guru Tom House. WR Jordan Payton will not be at camp. When drafted FO knew would still be in school but Hue & Saunders can coach him up to speed. Hang Shon Coleman on the contract signed list..Leaving only 3 left not signed (Nassib,Kessler & Schobert). Loads of coach & players interviews at CB.com

The four tryout players are:

TE Kevin Haplea - 6-3, 245 (Florida State)

TE Arthur Lynch - 6-5, 250 (Georgia)

K Patrick Murray - 5-7, 182 (Fordham)

RB Rajion Neal - 5-11, 210 (Tennessee)

Lynch and Murray carry two years of experience while Haplea, who had a brief stint with the Browns last season, and Neal have one.

The Browns will hold three practices over the next three days before breaking for the summer. The team will return at the end of July for the start of training camp.
