Cribbs gone, I assume this opens the door for Travis. But what if something happens to Benjamin, do we have anyone else that can return punts and kickoffs?
Norwood can right? Who else?

Benjamen, Haag, Obi and Haden (although I don't want to see Haden back there)
And we'll probably pick up a speedster somewhere along the line.. maybe in the draft or as an UDFA,, afterall, that's how we got Cribbs.

After Benjamin, the most effective would be Haden, but I agree, don't risk him back there. Oby would next, on the current roster, I think.
Probably a corner, in this year's draft will surface, as a returner.

Norwood is a very effective returner if I remember correctly. With Cribbs and Momass gone he has a greater role coming his way possibly.

I nominate Dqwell Jackson, he won't even have to leave the field, and I know he'll give his all.
I also nominate, Joe Thomas, because if he muff's it, he can recover his own fumble. (Man this guy recovers alot of fumbles, and makes tackles.)
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

Any of the guys mentioned plus who knows who we will pick up in the draft and FA.
I am pretty sure we will have somebody returning kicks.

With the new kickoff rules making the norm a return from 5-7 yards deep changing the timing of the running lanes that benefited Cribbs style. Now it seems to be a Speed thing as no way blocking can hold a running lane open long enough...Possibly after some success with outside speed a run inside here n there could be set up.
Benj...Skrine, Haden would be good - I did like Norwood on Punt Returns. Benjamin...sometimes Scared is good he could run for his life on every return
I'm sure Bademosi has shown reckless abandon for special teams n good speed.???
And we got a draft picks along with UDFA that can earn a spot via ST. More worried on our FG kicker.

Haden is a wonderful kick return guy. Really exciting to watch as I recall from his Fla. days. But as some said, I don't want him doing it.
His ability to save us points on D outweights the 9-10 kicks he might be able to return.
When I say 9-10....that doesn't mean for a score.....say returns of 35 or more yards. Those are good returns.....for a score....maybe 1-2-3.
Joe is our best defensive player by a good margin. He doesn't need to be playing special teams unless it's game on the line in a big game.
