OT- Bitonio, Hubbard, Harrison, Robinson .. Now that makes me nervous ..
its certainly not how it has looked since 2007
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
In addition, or in place of Willies? CJ just seemed to struggle on ST, where I've heard Willies has shown well.
WATER...
No doubt. That said, I've visited a lot of team message boards...there aren't many teams who have good OT depth. Look no further than our last 2 preseason opponents. Vaitai was a starter on the Eagles SB run, and got abused. and Dion Dawkins is the starter for Buffalo, for ____ sake! At this point, I'm just happy to have starters we're comfortable with & a developmental guy. A spot to solidify next offseason for sure.
FWIW, Baker and Willies seem to have good rapport, at least from what I've observed
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
I have watched more Pre-Season football this year than I have in years .. Talking to my son Yesterday , and we both agreed on the lack of quality OL in the league right now .. If any team looses a starter up front they be in trouble . Tackle obviously being highlighted ..
dna, History has shown, I think you have to cut one more Offensive lineman and add a defensie player somewhere. The o line always shakes down to 8, and when it doesn't it's because they keep a bad one to roster spot waive when they want to pick someone (not o-line) up from another team about 3 days later
According to Joe Buscaglia of WKBW, Corey Coleman isn't a lock to make the Bills' roster.
Coleman made little impact in his last preseason game, catching just one ball for seven yards against the Browns. Despite his first-round pedigree, the Bills only gave up a seventh-rounder for Coleman and the team won't hesitate to cut him loose if he's undeserving of a roster spot. He may need a good showing in Sunday's dress rehearsal against Cincinnati to make the Bills' final 53.
That kid is going to let stupidity and ego keep him from working for what he could have. As a result, his career is going to be over and he will probably blame everyone but himself for it.
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

on HK he seemed extremely dumb to me ... it was like he didn't "get it" and couldn't even communicate.

I like Corey Coleman I think the Browns were a better team with him on them, I'd like to see him back on the Browns TODAY! Never going to happen!
I think if I recall correctly there were games where the Browns only scored one TD on the day and it was a Corey Coleman catch, divisional games,
maybe a game where he had 2 td's and nobody else had any, You just don't throw that you just don't throw that You just don't throw that away, it it it it it it
It makes the other team play you differently and makes all your other receivers that you guys are in love with better overall because the defense can't just ignore him like they may ignore guys who don't belong on the field.
I'm still bummed they cut Coleman, was thinking about it 2hours before I read this thread.
They don't have Ricardo Louis, they don't have Kasen Willliams, they didn't go a couple other ways, It's like the Browns don't ever want to have 4 real threats, and every year they lose, and every year somebody like CJ Board, makes the final 53.
It's the same circus, remember when Brandon Weeden was a rookie Qb, that was a ton of years ago, they've had a rookie QB almost every year since.
I went to talk smack last year after week 1 when the Browns came close vs. the steelers to one of the thousands of steeler fans in my everyday life,
And the first words out of his mouth were " And they're doing it with a rookie Quarterback."
And he's right.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

Can he be put on the PS for the Bills with his proven "pedigree"? The rant I saw on HK clip, proves the ol' chestnut, "Be careful what you wish for." Dropping passes regularly. There is still a fanbase for that (see below). LOL
Wonder if he will get it in time.

Coleman had the skills, but, IMO, not the drive. I really liked him, but he seemed to not be able to learn what it takes to be a pro. He had flashes, but mostly he did nothing when on the field. His statement to Hue on HK, showed me that he thought he was deserving, without the effort.
He has talent, but no drive to be the best. Simple case of a kid thinking he was entitled just because of his draft status.
IMO, he will be a player that goes from team to team until his act grows old. Maybe he was ruined by Britt, who knows.

Thank you, Sashi.
starting to think this Dorsey fella might actually know what he's doing

So .... anyone think that 2 catches for no yards, and a big, dumb mistake help Corey make that roster?

I'd say ... no

Put this together to refresh the memory of Seth Devalve.
I have a hard time believing that Seth Devalve is gonna get beat out by Cajuice.
Nothing against Cajuice, he's had a good camp. But Devalve is young and was one of our better producers last season. I doubt Hue has forgotten about that. And Haley certainly has watched last season's tape
I think that Cajuste could make it as a 4th TE, in place of our FB, Vitale, from last year.
We'll see.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
I don't even remember seeing Vitale play at all this preseason ... I don't really even remember us lining up with a true FB?
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
Vitale falls into the same risk group as DeValve does, in that he's been injured in camp for 3 weeks now. He only touched the ball 3 times last year. He's a solid enough blocker, but I don't know that we'll do with a 1 dimensional FB, and him missing as much time as he has doesn't allow for him to show that he can do anything more in Haley's offense.
Both guys are at risk, but I think that if it comes down to keeping a FB who has missed 3 weeks, and who has a very limited resume in a league that devalues the FB position, or a TE who has a track record, and/or another TE who has shown some promise, and who has been a very good special teamer, I think that maybe Vitale is at greater risk of being out in favor of a 4th TE.

Does anybody else think Drew Stanton gets cut? I think there is a decent chance he gets cut and BRObie makes the practice squad.
I could see it, but I don't think it will happen. Stanton on the sideline working with Baker on surface pros and clipboards is worth more that the bottom rung special teamer. If Baker had a year under his belt Stanton would definitely be gone.
I'm not sure Brobie has done enough to stash on the PS, but the way we go through QBs some years it wouldn't surprise me. Personally I think he's watching from the couch at home opening day.
I think that Cajuste could make it as a 4th TE, in place of our FB, Vitale, from last year.
We'll see.
I think Cajuste makes the team, just not sure how. He might go to PS if he's still eligible too. He's a good story and damn sure plays with heart but he's far from being a must have guy.

Pssstttt I think one of your Steeler buddies hacked your account.

There is little doubt that we will be cutting decent players this year. Devalve, Vitale, Orchard, Nassib, Janis, Dayes, Ratley, Willies, Board, etc. These guys and others that can play at average level are on the bubble IMHO. I think Nassib is a stretch but not by much.
I just remember how many AWFUL throws he had in the red zone alone

The busiest week of NFL transactions is upon us, as all 32 teams must trim their rosters down to 53 players by this Saturday 4 PM EST. A flurry of moves awaits.

Apparently, Browns have first fights on a player released.
On the scorecards, or by KO?
