As @ProFootballTalk said, the Browns have claimed (now) WR Terrelle Pryor off waivers. https://twitter.com/AlbertBreerTwo questions. 1. Who lasts longer w/ Cleveland-- Vince Young or Terrelle? 2. How many pages before this turns into a Brian Hoyer topic? Ready.....GO!

I bet he'll make a better WR than Hoyer would.

Why? He's a straight up project at any positions. Obviously he's no QB and obviously we are looking at a WR/TE switch for him, but the signing makes no sense. I'm giving this a  and I'm a HUGE OSU Bucs fan. Just can't find anything to get happy/excited for about this.

Nothing bad can come from this. He either figures out the receiver position or doesn't. If he doesn't we cut him. If he does then we found a useful player for nothing.
No one can question Pryor's physical gifts, there is no risk in this move.

Actually.
This signing makes sense.
We lose nothing by inviting him to camp. If he doesn't work out, we cut him, end of story.
If he has something to offer and makes the team, more power to us for taking a chance and claiming him off waivers.

If he makes the transition to receiver it would be shocking.
Really hard to wake up one day and say I think I will be a receiver in the NFL.

He's an athlete and can run. Why is this a bad thing. At this time of year, with no real expectations, this makes perfect sense. I also get the feeling that had he agreed to play WR prior to this, he'd have been here sooner.

so, you're saying that we have zero QB's. it'll be interesting to see if he can stick to the roster.

Pryor should have made this switch years ago IMO. He wasn't ever, in my eyes, set to be a NFL QB.

him as a bum QB still beat the steelers in his first try, something we get lucky doing time to time.
the guy has some serious talent. he's fast, he might have hands too.
i don't see what the problem is. one of these WR deep in the back might have cut.....so? they was more likely camp fodder anyway.
Hawk, Gabriel, Bowe and Hartline aren't going anywhere. i don't care if we lose anybody after that.

This time of year, you gotta look at the bottom half of the roster as if it's a funnel. you gotta put a lot in to get a little out. It's no big deal I think.

Report: Bengals upset Terrelle Pryor shared practice video Posted by Josh Alper on June 22, 2015, 4:29 PM EDT Terrelle Pryor is now a member of the Browns, which means that he’s now a rival of his former team in Cincinnati. That may not be the only reason for animosity toward Pryor around the Bengals, however. Coley Harvey of ESPN.com reports that Pryor upset the team by posting videos of full team drills from their practices on Twitter while discussing his decision to switch positions to wide receiver in an effort to extend his time in the NFL. “I haven’t been around another player who has done that,” a team source told Harvey. “By no means did we think a player would do something like that.” That source also theorized that other teams might be averse to signing Pryor because of the risk that he’d share their information as well. It’s not clear if the Browns claimed him off waivers before or after the videos went up. The videos have been removed from Pryor’s Twitter account. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/201...practice-video/

http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/news/arti...b0-2644c029decaThe Cleveland Browns on Monday were awarded Terrelle Pryor via waivers from Cincinnati. General Manager Ray Farmer made the announcement. Pryor will compete for a roster spot at wide receiver. To make room on the roster, the team waived defensive back Landon Feichter.Pryor is a 6-4, 233-pound veteran officially in his fourth NFL season out of Ohio State. Originally drafted by Oakland in in the third round of the 2011 supplemental draft, Pryor has appeared in 15 games with 10 starts at quarterback. He has completed 170 of 302 passes for 1,953 yards with nine touchdowns and 12 interceptions. He has added 627 rushing yards with three scores and one reception for 22 yards. He spent training camp in 2014 with Seattle and spent parts of the 2015 offseason with Kansas City and Cincinnati. He led Ohio State to a 31-4 record in three years as a starter. A native of Jeannette, Pa., Pryor attended Jeannette High School. After participating in the Browns’ rookie minicamp on May 8-10 on a tryout basis, Feichter signed with Cleveland on May 11 as an undrafted free agent from Purdue.

I'm hoping maybe we just signed him to get a quick view at the Bengals playbook....There's no real downside to signing him at this point of the year but there's no real upside here either.

Maybe Flip has some ideas as to how to use him as a weapon on offense, since he has coached him in the past and knows his abilities?

DeFilippo, who got the best out of former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor when they were in Oakland together in 2013, stressed that he's not about to take the "Football'' out of "Johnny.'' "I watched a lot of Johnny's tape his year coming out of college and I gave him a draft evaluation grade,'' he said. "They ran a lot of the same pass concepts as you run in the NFL. Johnny's game is just a little unorthodox. He likes to escape the pocket, he does a lot of impromptu stuff and the thing Johnny's doing right now is he's improving his game of being a NFL quarterback and he's making great strides in doing that. "I'm the last guy - the last guy -- that's going to take Johnny Manziel's athleticism away from him. I will not do that. I refuse to do that. Okay? And I told Terrelle Pryor the same thing. 'That's part of your game.' Now, we need to refine the other part to make you the complete quarterback.' http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2015/05/browns_oc_john_defilippo_johnn.html

emergency 3rd QB and a 7th receiver. why not? and you can still put shaw on the PS. Joker took another QB in Randall Cobb and turned him into a pretty good receiver. If Pryor can catch? I dont see why not.

I guess Flip plans on finishing up the work he started with Pryor? The really great news is he probably is better then anyone else we got so why not? Who else did Oakland have on the QB roster so I know who will be picked up next. That stud outfit is a great place to find our upgrades....

He had numerous rules infractions at OSU, said he would stay w/the team, and then decided to leave the Buckeyes and enter the Supplemental Draft. He now posts videos of full team drills in order to promote himself? Pffftttt. He is the antithesis of a team-first player. Someone said OSU pimps would be happy? Why? The guy caused Ohio State fans plenty of heartache w/his selfishness and indiscretions.

I've been saying since his days at QB at Ohio State he would be a freak of nature at WR. He did catch a touchdown pass from Todd Beckman while lining up at WR when playing for OSU.
He has size and speed. Can he learn to run good routes? Can he display good hands in tight coverage? Those questions have to be answered. He has all of the athletic ability needed to play the position.
