    I feel as Dez brings more risk than reward to an already loaded WR group. IMO

    we missed gordon in the redzone tonight. That small forward at wr tgat can outjump everyone. Landry's unguardable everywhere else but in the zone, we need more physicality. I know gordons coming back, but it would be nice to have both until we know if we got the old gordon or not.

    plus deep sets with dez and gordon would be sick

    This^^Dez is 6'2 220lbs. Are under 6ft, under 200lb. smurfs group of WR's could not get open last night. The 4 redzone shots vs 4 runs were called to get Landry a score. And, we stunk in the redzone last season badly,it needed called in preseason games..Njoku,Willies were TD's thrown high to tall receivers. The seattle quick slant play should have been picked again also..Callaway maybe 5'11 but at least he's over 200lbs..we could work a rotation of Dez,Gordon,Callaway all getting time to stay fresh.Higgins can still get his reps also..For once in quite a while I'd like see our WR core bigger & more physical than that team in the Penn..

    That's possible -plus- the new BROWNS braintrust might be playing this thing out in their own way. I think they might know more than we mere mortals on Flash and other things. 

    Better no Dez than an overpriced prima donna headcase.

    Njoku and DeValve should be our redzone (at least 5 yard line and in)  go to guys.

    Yes he has been more of a possession move the chains guy, hopefully he will be a more important role with the still somewhat unsettled WR BROWNS team.

    Flash - long guy, Landry/Johnson the short, in between guys.

    What a conundrum for the BROWNS, what do you offer and hope for with this dude? I think he's definitely in the Prima Donna class.
