gftChris Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 If you're relatively important to the browns, you get injured this year, it seems. Unless you're JT, who is made of unbreakable. Haden, Coleman, Nassib, any QB, Bryant, even Cam Erving - it'll be TP's turn next, or maybe Crowell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaineDeSoulis Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 I was actually Really hoping we would pick up Dan Vitale the "Superback" from northwestern. Great Hands and extremely Quick feet Going to be a good Fullback if given the chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Yeah I remember reading a fair bit about Vitale around draft time and thought he would be a great addition as a UDFA at fullback. Hue got his cinncy Buckhead. Vitale played well at Northwestern lead blocking & swing passes from backfield. Makes you wonder if Malcolm Johnson still having fumbling issues at practice?

gftChris Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Jordan Poyer wins a free burrito for being the millionth injured brown this season, and is now on IR: http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/news/article-5/Browns-elevate-DB-Ed-Reynolds-to-active-roster-place-DB-Jordan-Poyer-on-IR/440188e5-0198-4727-99e0-c9b3f20e9e2a We have promoted Ed Reynolds, a 2014 fifth round (philly) DB, to the active roster. So starting safeties - Campbell and Kindred? Eek. Who's our FS backup? Tracy Howard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Ed was a beast of a FS at Stanford... just a step too slow to play or the NFL I fear.y I always wondered if Ed was suited for one of the newly emerging LB/S hybrid roles like Deone Bucannon fills in AZ.

I haven't watched enough to know, but that's kinda like Mark Barron as well, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Slowly but surely the NFL is reacting to Gronk-esque tight ends. Traditional LBers can't cover well enough, traditional FSs aren't big enough. Those tweeners who couldn't find a role, workout warriors without pass rush moves etc might find themselves a special place in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 You mean like Mingo? Said that for a long time. He's solid enough in coverage and has the size to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unsympathetic Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 The difference is that Buccannon can do both roles, not neither.. Not sure about Barron w LA, he was useless at TB as S. Wouldn't expect this guy to see the field.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
