Is Weaver the reason the Browns didn't draft a DE?

His hype is building, it seems; I hope he can produce.

In camp we will find out.

The coaches are high on him. The issue so far is he has yet to play for any length of time because of injury.

He will have to come on in a big way. Takk and Clowney are playing for new contracts.

They will get the bulk of work most likely.

Weaver will have to show some serious ability. We have three DE that are first round picks. Two were the first picks.

Stiff competition.

In some ways we can view him as a drafted DE.

After seeing the workout pictures of Myles, Clowney and Takk.

I would be afraid to stand next to them.

I would not know but I think it would be kind of intimidating being in the DE room.

When I started playing football in junior high. The first team meeting the coach said the game would be won or lost on the line of scrimmage.

I know that is an old adage. However, there is lots of truth in it.

Even though the DT position remains in question. The competition there should produce good play.

The Browns are really good on both sides and deep in talent.

Good point. A weird toe injury kept him out all last year. If he's "all that" I will officially declare Berry a super ninja warlock warrior.

Wasnt he 5th rounder

I keep hoping that he’ll be a good DE rotational dude. I think there’s a real chance he does.

No injuries in college so and his injury is to the big toe which during the season is hard to play on but he got it early in practice and immediately had surgery on it so that he should be 100 % after his rehab is/was completed.

5th round pick contract that we expect to be a big time contributor and edge player for us.

Possibly even our future for the other side of Garrett He reminds me of Von Miller.

jmho - can't wait to see him play!

That's some good stuff right there, Troop. Thx.
