    Browns are at 52, right? One guy short?

    Did I see that Hubbard, Leggett, and Patten were all cut? Who DID make it, then?

    Right...

    MoMass, Robiskie, Furrey, Cribbs, and Edwards

    And Lawson and Costanza both made it.

    I can't see them staying with only 5 receivers especially when one is your primary return man.

  • DA for Marshall???

  • Additionally, I find it interesting that the Browns kept Brandon Lockett, DB and Leon Williams, LB.

    Hank Fraley also made it.

  • The suspense is killing me...

    Topic says per the OBR, which is probably insider online info = you have to subscribe to see it.

  • I provided the link you dink... additionally, and presumably, the OBR is in the middle of the conference call with Mangini as we speak.

    They also just posted up that the Browns may have interest in another OG, since they have like no depth (Corey Hilliard backing up both Steinbach and Womack) and the Jets just cut a practice squad OG from last year.

    Oh, ok... the OBR gets the inside scoop over every major news/sports media? Please. Just a ploy to get people to their site.

    All it is is Mangini providing his list of cuts.

    LOL, straight from the OBR itself, " Few Surprises Among Browns Roster Cuts: There were few surprises in the final announcement of the Browns roster."

    Yep, that inside info was HUGE!!!

    Glad I don't subscribe....

    Fraley and Hadnot are both guard backups. They don't have a solid tackle backup. One injury and they have to move Steinbach to tackle and replace him which disrupts the whole OL. You don't want to be moving guys in and out with a rookie Center.

    Note: Sorry, I forgot about Cory Hilliard, he does play tackle. As a matter of fact, he was in for Thomas against the Bears.

    I'm starting to think the same thing. This article just went up on OBR. No big news there. Patten, etc.

    Ok mister cynical... how is it a ploy to get people on their site, when the only way you'd have seen this particular nugget was if you were already a member of their site?

    Or if someone like me posted that something was on their site...

    The title of their insider blog post was... "Prepare yourselves - news coming..."

    OBR is worthless, IMO. Go ahead and pay for something that will be on the news 2 minutes later. Laughable.

  • Pressor a dud.

    Mangini addresses Jamal Lewis rumors

    September 5, 2009 7:43 PM

    Posted by James Walker

    CLEVELAND—Although Eric Mangini had nothing new to offer about his quarterback situation Saturday, the Browns head coach was able to publicly put an end to the speculation surrounding veteran running back Jamal Lewis.

    There were rumors and reports circulating over the past 24 hours that Lewis would be released by the Browns. He turned 30 this summer and is coming off ankle surgery.

    But based on the team’s roster and an offseason bonus paid to Lewis, cutting the team’s leading rusher in 2008 didn’t add up. Therefore, when the 6 p.m. cut deadline passed, Lewis was still on the roster as the Cleveland’s starting tailback entering the regular season.

    "One thing that happens during any transitional time in the league is there’s always speculation," Mangini said. "I think Jamal has a lot to contribute, and I’m looking forward to seeing him as we go through the season."

    Mangini added that Lewis' work ethic and ability to mentor younger running backs are two major pluses. Lewis has helped tutor rookie tailback James Davis, who put together a great preseason and is expected to team with Lewis as Cleveland’s primary rushers this year.

  • ah, that's too bad... was thinking something shocking was going to happen and all he did was put to rest something that was a rumor to begin with.

  • Monster blue balls. But good news nonetheless. Jamal will contribute.

    Sure, luck means a lot in football. Not having a good quarterback is bad luck. -Don Shula

  • JUNK...that's it? Blue balls is right...lol

  • sorry guys (and gals?)... looks like I got you all worked up like a good stripper at the local titty bar for essentially a long drive back home to loneliness (hmm...)

    Ha! No worries, although Firefox is looking at me like I'm ridiculous right now.
