2) The preseason darkhorse standout means absolutely nothing.
The chances of this being wrong are there, but the chances are very, VERY slim. I call this the CJ Jones/Brandon Rideau rule. Every year some of us pimp a guy for making plays in the preseason and in training camp, then once the season comes we never hear from them again. Chances are they won't even make the final roster. Don't be excited unless this player starts climbing the depth chart rapidly.
But for every CJ Jones/Brandon Rideau you get a Bodden/Cribbs. Not only did they make the team, when healthy they are big time contributers. Browns fans love these diamonds in the rough, who play with a lot of heart and make alot less money.
