So a 4 2 5 alignment?
Semi-base nickel with Peppers as the hybrid... I presume...
Campbell doesn't look like an intimidating single-high, but Boddy-C did spend time at Safety last season... reviews weren't great, but I don't think he had any experience before being pressed into Safety service.

lot will depend on how long are we in actual coverage before the GW QB heat comes. If Brantley clears hes another beast. We got no better than Haden covering the #1 Wr's at CB game day. His concussion issues ended a possible safety move imo. If Harvard did not draft them? Than talent better shine in Campbell & some others. Those numbers will be interesting getting to 53

4-2-5 and the nickel will be the 3rd safety/backer. Be it Peppers or Kindred/Campbell.
Tyvis has shown more in the deep 1/3 than the others and I'm sure working under the best (Earl) has given him some pointers... but even with that I'm still very concerned about his ability to consistently hold up back there.

Expectation for the secondary are average with low expecations. Looking forward to the front seven though

My lineup's got some spots that are up for grabs.(and I'm none too sure about the TE spot going to the rookie for game 1).
LT – Joe Thomas
LG – Joel Bitonio
C - JC Tretter
RG – Kevin Zeitler
RT - ?
QB – Cody Kessler
WR – Kenny Britt
WR – Corey Coleman
WR - ?
TE - David Njoku
RB – Isaiah Crowell
DL – Myles Garrett
DL – Desmond Bryant
DL – Danny Shelton
DL – Emmanuel Ogbah
LB – Jamie Collins
LB – Christian Kirksey
LB - ?
CB – Joe Haden
CB – Jamar Taylor
SS – Jabrill Peppers
FS - ?
Obviously other players will get in the game....FB, blocking TE, RB, 4 WR's, nickle & dime defenses....

RT - ? Hopefully Shon Coleman or possibly Drango. Cam Erving a candidate....but who expects him to come through? Not I.
QB – Cody Kessler
WR – Kenny Britt
WR – Corey Coleman
WR - ? More often than not: Duke Johnson..out of the backfield or in the slot.
TE - David Njoku
RB – Isaiah Crowell
DL – Myles Garrett
DL – Desmond Bryant...The way things are going, this FO could dump Bryant...Then you would have Meder or Ogunjobi
DL – Danny Shelton
DL – Emmanuel Ogbah
LB – Jamie Collins
LB – Christian Kirksey
LB - ? Joe Schobert slated here. But I have said we need upgrade...which the Browns did not address.
CB – Joe Haden
CB – Jamar Taylor
SS – Gerbil Peppers
FS - ? Kindred top candidate...otherwise we have Ed Reynolds
Obviously other players will get in the game....FB, blocking TE, RB, 4 WR's, nickle & dime defenses....

I have that feeling too...

Says a lot for our receiver bunch. Hopefully someone makes an improvement in year two and shows in camp. Maybe even that Hall kid from last preseason. The league pretty much squashed any pipe dream of having Josh Gordon return to us.

Bryant's future is pretty firmly in the hands of Gregg Williams now... and the Brantley investigation. But assuming a full recovery from his pec tear, I expect to see him on our squad... and starting.

OK, but I see that it is possible that his position is a lot like Gary Barnidge's. 31 year old veteran who had an off/down season. Plus, they did pick 2 potential replacements for him in Ogunjobi and Brantley. This FO has not been adverse to dumping veterans that previous administrations brought in.
Its not like Des is like Joe Thomas or Joe Haden.....perennial all star.

Collins and Kirksey better have pro bowl seasons. D is going to be a little scary. Again.So a 4 2 5 alignment?
