Keys to the Browns upcoming successful seasons - secret weapons
-
another "secret weapon" is the offensive line depth. The Browns are paying serious attention to it.

The current Browns KNOW the offensive line woes of the past teams. The offensive line is the engine of the offense.
You can have the most expensive wheels, steering wheel, mirrors transmission, etc, but if the engine falters, the whole car falters.

Another secret weapon, perhaps more secret than the others....
is Harrison Bryant, TE, fourth round. He was a steal in the fourth round - in what
I believe is the closest to brilliant full draft for the Browns in many years.
I also believe that teams don't go to the superbowl without nailing their recent drafts.
If Njoku doesn't have the work ethic to fix his dropsies problem, Bryant could end up
seeing a lot of playing time down the road his first year.

Harrison Bryant played at a smaller college -- well, it doesn't matter. He was a GEM in the fourth round.
Fourth round secret weapon - has soft hands, CATCHES the ball.
HIghlights are fun to watch:
Catches in traffic, is rough and tough, loves the game...we'll see.

...I'm not ready to call a mid-draft player from a small school a weapon. Hopefully he can be taught to be a decent blocker. We need someone who does both well, catches and blocks.
I wish for Bryant to be a weapon.

Donovan Peoples-Jones could be a great find. Return man, good hands.
Karlis Missed -
Donovan Peoples-Jones could be a great find. Return man, good hands.
...I thought the knock on him was his drops. And an average route runner at best. I think Mel Kiper said, 'He looks good in a uniform.'
He's not known as a blocker and we know Stef wants his receivers to block for that wide zone run. I think it's gonna be rough for him this year. He's gotta be taught to be a crisp route runner in order to get open in the nfl. He's gotta learn to block. Gotta learn an nfl playbook. In this wacky COVID preseason with no games and few 'real' practices. Whew! It's a tough year to be a 'project' player! - He's got good size, I wish for him to become a weapon.

yep, if he works hard... it might be tough to keep him on the roster to only be a return man. But, he could be terrific at that.

Not really -- hands and route-running itself are both great. He's not short-area-quick enough to separate from coverage and can't handle that coverage while he's not separated.

I think we may have a toss-up on the best Browns mid-round pick? Peoples or Bryant.. https://brownsnation.com/why-did-donovan-peoples-jones-drop-to-the-sixth-round/ Peoples has the best two tutors in Landry & OBJ to learn from his faults. But the physical tools can't be packed in his lunchbox.. Both should bring much needed vertical size to the redzone.. Peeps Jones jumped a 44.5" vertical from a stand still at the combine? .. Chuck it up & go get it! ?

Gip thinks Peeps is a better prospect than Chase Claypool. Too bad he won't actually bet on it.
I did not say that corncunthole. I said DPJ's production in college is ever so incrementally less than Claypool's had been, (plus the fact that Claypool played 4 years opposed to 3 for Peeps so that makes the comparison even more difficult). I also said that Claypool goddam good and well better be considered a better prospect than Peeps because he was drafted only like 140 places above DPJ.
So, OK, sure. For a hot fudge sundae, I will say that 5 years from now Peeps will turn out to have just as productive career as Claypool.
Call me in 5 years.

interesting - yesterday's update ...Harrison Bryant is turning heads at camp, and Peoples-Jones is making a
case for himself here and there.

We need some good news because there really hasn't been much. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the teams who aren't implementing new systems are going to absolutely dominate IMO. This year was significantly shortened and the preseason plain doesn't exist. Guess who we play first? We play the team with the most galvanized identity in the league...the Ravens. They know exactly what they want to do, how to do it, and they won't be trying to learn new things.
Conversely, every single day I read about our beloved Browns it's more bad news about the offense. Yesterday they could hardly complete a pass with the top 6 DBs out or injured! I realize the defense is always ahead of the offense, but it's getting a little more urgent. To be fair, we haven't had that many practices, we lost a padded practice with the recent covid scare, and we still have 3 weeks before Baltimore. But guess what? The Ravens don't care about being fair. They won't feel bad about us not having a typical offseason to install our new shit.
We're going to lean on the running game early, and that's totally fine with me. But to do that, we can't be down 20 points. We need some good offensive news next week or it's gonna get messy. I REALLY don't like reading about Baker sailing throws high still...that can't happen again. And Jesus, please no more injuries, ok?

I didn't know it til just now- but I posted that Greedy is hurt now, might? miss time.... I'll delete it if it's already been said...
A lot of us? would have felt the Browns would have a great chance at winning the division...but with the significant injuries..
I have to wonder now. But if any HC can adjust and still win - it will be Stefanski I think.
"secret weapons" will play a far bigger role in the Browns - given the injuries.
Stefanski is just an inspiring guy - a good press conference - (Chubb is back, etc)

Greedy is definitely missing a good amount of time, we just don't know HOW much.

Shoulder injury. Nobody is saying exactly what it is, but it's not good.
