TE from Minnesota ... anyone know of him?

play college at Miami .

6'7" 255 lbs with a 4.6 40 yard dash.

been on and off the Ravens roster.

Definitely athletic.

More of the same, picking up other teams trash. When is this going to end?

When other teams are out of trash?

If we would have just invested in waste management, maybe we could have called this a success by now.

i guess it beats the alternative: re-picking up our own trash

Well if he sticks, then we certainly got bigger...

I think I got those from draft scout.

I've seen him on the field. I think it was for the Vikings and he had a couple of decent plays.

At least it is not Trent Richardson! Whew!

j/c

I honestly don't know anything about Ford. Even if the guy just brings blocking ability from the inline TE position he's younger and cheaper than Dray. If he just contributes at that level then it's one less need we have to address in the draft.

The Browns should also take a hard look at Dominique Easley, DL former fist round pick of the Pats. He was cut loose today. In part because of health concerns about a knee. Do the due diligence and see if he has value.

Maybe you and Ddub need to knock it off. We picked up a TE....WTF are you expecting at this point? I agree, he probably isn't going to be much, but I don't see the point in moaning like a couple of sissy's.

Agreed. Easley is a good player when healthy. Surprised the Pats let him go.

I know little about him, but I'll go out on a limb and say he's better than Dray or Housler were last year.

pffft. why i dont post much anymore...

Housler was one of the worst TEs I've ever seen ... and I already forgot about dre

Some people just feel that any move this team makes is a bad one. Its pathetic if you ask me. Why bother following a team if you hate everything about them..

I'm 55yrs old and I've been following the Browns since childhood. There's no way I'm switching now.

Maybe some people just feel that any move this team makes is a bad one for one simple reason.....it's true!.... and they haven't proven otherwise. It's been one fiasco after another since 1999.

I think a lot of us are very frustrated, it seems like every regime is worst than the last one. Our first round picks have done a lot of busting, Haslam fires coaches every two years (I let others bash our owner and FO and I'm open-minded about the new bunch, but Haslam makes me wish for Junior and he needs to get - and stay - out of the way.)

We need to see improvement this season. I highly suspect we will be awful, but we need to see some kind of plan, a culture overhaul and hope for the future.
Some of us old dawgs are weary from a futile chase, so we do a little growlin once in awhile.

Hey guys..........if people don't agree w/us..........let's call them names and make fun of them.

This guy can't be any worse than the dude we signed last year, paid a bunch of money, and then never played. Was that Housler? Then we had Bibbs that looked good and did nothing with him.

Hope this was Houslers replacement.

Is Housler still on the roster?

No. He was cut midseason.

Thanks.

I was only making fun of his statement about trash. Didn't even consider it would be taken so wrong.

Sissy's?

Personally, I think ddub would beat the crap out of peen. I don't even think it would be a contest. I like peen a lot. He is a friend, but bro...........you might wanna watch your mouth.......

Probably, but who knows....anyway, the sissy comment was used as a metaphor. It wasn't a direct insult.

The estrogen on this board is at an all time high... I blame Haslam. lol.

Why are we talking about who can beat up who on an internet message board?

Because we're all internet tough guys. You got a problem with that?

I say Ford and Beat Drey In an Indian Wrestling match. That's why for now he is our replacement for Drey. A guy who will be used as a blocking back and an occasional receiver. (If he even makes the team)

don't know anything about the kid...but hey why not give him a look.

Here's an interesting hypothetical question for yous guys ... who would win a fight between Coach Ditka and a hurricane?

That's right, DITKA, of course.

But wait a minute, what if the hurricane was named ... Hurricane Ditka?

Probably because one poster called others sissy's.

Well, you called people racists just the other day in your wonderful post-11PM messages. I guess the most logical next step would be (based on your response to sissys) to see who could win in a lynching contest....any suggestions people?

Likely better than Jim Dray so I'm okay with it.

April free agent signing.. no big deal.

I thought this is the time to add players as the roster can get up to 90 or something.

I feel like it's somewhat inherent that all teams pick up each others' trash at this time of year (in addition to other, more significant moves) in the hopes that that team made a mistake letting them go. If not, cut them as rules require roster sizes to diminish as the summer wears on.
