Hopefully we're getting healthy at the right time.

Hawk is someone I hope stays healthy and can contribute. His skill set is much different than our other WRs

Here's a story from the TB side:

Camp Report: Koetter Not Happy With Silent Offense In Practice With The Browns

sounds like a pretty "meh" practice on the TB side, at least based on their coach's comments

their kicker is REALLY struggling

some good/some bad from reports on our side (defense pretty much stinks)

The kicker they traded up to get in the second round.

Apparently, RG3 got picked off a couple times by Hargreaves.

And Dom Alexander had a nice pick.

And he's hired a shrink now

Kicker in second round, SAY WHAT?

Trade up for a kicker in the second round, SAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT?

Kicker in the second round you traded up for sucks, WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Do you really want to be a Browns fan talking smack about unfruitful draft picks?

Difference between picking someone with some sort of potential/hype than trading up to take a kicker in the second round bro...

Phil Dawson, one of the best kickers in the LEAGUE imo, went undrafted... food for thought. So did Vinatieri. I'm sure there are others, but I'm not really a master of kickers lol.

I don't remember if it was 92.3 or 850 this afternoon ... But when I listened it sounded as if the team is light years ahead and better than last year scrimmage vs Buffalo. On offense we sounded like we ran a very up tempo deal. They said more than two plays for every Tampa play. Gordon looked g.o.o.d.

Sounds like on def we are moving in a better direction. Haden sounds like he is playing back to his peak form.

Encouraging. Game 3 .... Looking forward to it v much.

I remember the reports out of Buffalo last year were straight garbage ... we looked awful.

Browns win the day on offense and defense over Bucs in joint practices

TAMPA, Fla. – Takeways from Browns’ joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers …

1. Browns win: The teams practiced on adjacent fields, so the head coaches had to choose which one to focus on. Both coaches chose to watch their offenses. Judging from comments and our own observations, the Browns “won” each side. On offense, Terrelle Pryor beat cornerback Brent Grimes consistently, handling some pinpoint sideline throws by Robert Griffin III. Griffin was intercepted by rookie Vernon Hargreaves, intended for Andrew Hawkins, and by Ryan Smith, intended for Taylor Gabriel. Griffin also overthrew Josh Gordon once – something Brandon Weeden never was able to do. Overall, Jackson was pleased with what he saw, adding, “Obviously, we have some things to clean up. It’s unfortunate sometimes their defense got their hands on too many of our balls.” On defense, Joe Haden had an interception of a Jameis Winston pass tipped by linebacker DeMario Davis, linebacker Dominque Alexander intercepted Mike Glennon, and Jamar Taylor intercepted a pass from No. 3 QB Ryan Griffin. Afterwards, Bucs coach Dirk Koetter was anguished with his offense. “No juice, no juice. No one wanted to practice today,” he said. “We had balls tipped, we had poor throws, we had bad protection. That’s a bad combination. Overall, just a bad day on offense.”

2. Some like it hot: When practice started at 9:50 a.m., the temperature was 90 degrees and the heat index was 100. Then it warmed up. “We’ve got to handle the elements, right?” said Jackson. “It’s a little hot, little humid and I’m glad it is. The hotter the better, because that’s the way it’s gonna be when we start during the season, obviously against Miami [for Game 3 on Sept. 25].” Receiver Josh Gordon, who can stand to lose a few pounds, said, “I think we’ll all lose a bunch.” Receiver Terrelle Pryor, who credits his work ethic for keeping him on the field for every practice, said, “I’m not gonna lie. It [the oppressive conditions] hit me. I view myself and a lot of guys as very hard workers. Tomorrow should be better. It kind of takes a day or two to adapt. I think we’ll have a better day tomorrow than today.”

3. Frazzled: The Bucs took a lot of heat for using a second-round draft pick, No. 59 overall, on place-kicker Roberto Aguayo of Florida State. Aguayo has melted under the pressure and is now consulting with outside kicking coaches and what he termed “a mental coach.” Then he came out Tuesday and missed 3 of his 6 field goal tries, causing more consternation among coaches and Bucs VIP visitors in attendance. “He’s struggling a little bit right now. So he’s got to work his way through it. We’ve talked to him. He knows what he has to do,” Koetter said. Meanwhile, former Bucs kicker Patrick Murray continues to hold off incumbent Travis Coons for the Browns’ place-kicking job. Murray was 4 for 4 on Tuesday while Coons was 2 for 3. If Aguayo doesn’t snap out of it, the Bucs may look for a replacement, so Coons could be auditioning right before their eyes. “I wouldn’t think that’s an option,” Koetter said about replacing Aguayo, “but that would be a question for Jason [Licht, Bucs GM].”

4. Observations: Rookie receiver Corey Coleman appeared limited in team work. Pryor said, “He’ll be back [Wednesday].” On special teams, Coleman muffed the first punt and a scramble for the loose ball ensued … Four-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Gerald McCoy returned to Bucs practice after turning an ankle in joint workouts with the Jaguars last week. McCoy doesn’t line up directly over the center, so he didn’t have much to say about Browns center Cam Erving, who was Jameis Winston’s center the last five games at Florida State in 2015. “I didn’t go against him today. He seemed alright to me. I’d have to look at the film and I’ll be able to answer that question better tomorrow,” McCoy said.

Lol @ Coons auditioning before their eyes. Second round fg kicker, you were insane.

Sounds like a blistering hot and humid weather though. Maybe Danny will lose another 15 pounds and be able to do something.

LOL..........you come up w/some good ones.

Maybe he's thinking his future is in the Browns' Finance Dept.



Just kidding, DawgLB

haha

LOL!

j/c:

Joe Haden out there today intercepting Winston again.

How quickly people forget...

I hope this carries over into regular season. Haden always seems to blaze and get in rhythm after a big splash play, and an Int would be what the doctor ordered.

His slow starts are well noted.

Can't deny that.

LBer is a really good sport.

I didn't want to admit it, but I was lol'ing at myself/the posts. Again, I can't blame SwiftKey or autocorrect on that one hahaha.

So the Broncos named Travis Siemian their starting QB today. Weird. Sanchez might not even make the team.

And all of Denver is trying to accurately pronounce his last name before the first game.

Maybe Sanchez ends up in Dallas

and the rest of us are trying to get his first name right.

Loved Siemian in college (lived in Chicago for two years of Siemian, one shared with Cain Coulter though_. He threw a nice ball when he was in a rhythm. Then sometimes he'd just be off. I think that is mostly was fundamentals.

Always liked him a lot though. When he had it, he had it. Although I wouldnt say he has a powerful arm with a deep ball the likes of RG3, but he would throw these great mid-range passes when he was rollin. On the money, making the right decision. It was great. He just made it look easy. Like someone playing Madden or something

Loved Siemian in college

Little college experimentation going on there lol

Reports are Broncos are trying to trade Sanchez.

Dallas. 49ers?
