The Gipper Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Here are a few names of guys released today. Just wondering if any could be upgrades from what we have now.....I am mainly looking at backup OL...or WR....or QB or anything else that looks interesting: OG John Moffit Eagles OG Mike Leidtke Dolphins OT Donald Hawkins Dolphins WR Rasheed Bailey Eagles WR Andre Davis Bills (not the same guy we used to have, is it?) I will add more as they start to come out......thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gftChris Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Also look at TEs I would say. Barnidge, Dray and Bibbs/Housler are solid, but not going to scare anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Think we're set with West, Crowell and Johnson. Just my opinion though, can't see any of those guys getting cut or traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudfly Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Id be surprised to see them claim any skill players, unless someone really special comes available...... Really....the only positions Id expect to see them go after are OL and QB...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hx214 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I would say after last night that they will be looking to add a backup OLmen cause I don't see any of those guys making the 53 man roster.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 (U)pgrade, ©ut or (T)rade. QB-Lewis Devilin(C or U) RB-Draughn(C or U) WR-Mayle, Moore, Jennings( U or PS) TE-Housler © OL-After Cam as 6, I would try to trade McDonald or Painter to Squealers who's OL are dropping like flies and dumpster fire the rest. DL- B & D Wynn(T or U Dylan(PS)) ILB-T. Carder(T or U) S-Poyer (T or U) CB-Bademosi (T or U) K- Coons (cut and experience U) realize a lot of STers but their position depths causes that factor and will also upgrade ST with better talent.

Flugel Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Here are a few names of guys released today. Just wondering if any could be upgrades from what we have now.....I am mainly looking at backup OL...or WR....or QB or anything else that looks interesting: OG John Moffit Eagles OG Mike Leidtke Dolphins OT Donald Hawkins Dolphins WR Rasheed Bailey Eagles WR Andre Davis Bills (not the same guy we used to have, is it?) I will add more as they start to come out......thoughts? This is a different Andre Davis than we had. This one was undrafted. Did Buffalo really cut this guy? I read he had a really good camp; and repeatedly beat Gilbert as easy as breathing. Beating corners wasn't exclusive to Gilbert though. I could see this kid going to GB, getting reps and succeeding there if we're not interested. I walked away more impressed with Olsen than Seymour as a Center, whom I'm guessing could play OG as well. I think Erving can play Center and OT reasonably well if needed (but not at the Joe Thomas standard we're used to as others have point out). It looks like they wanted him familiar with OG as well. Oline is a chemistry thing so guys that have barely shared game action together in Guard-Tackle tandems probably weren't going to play their best football with a QB like Lewis and whatever we had left playing RB. Having said that, a couple weeks ago (w/ Manziel at QB) they didn't look nearly that bad. Some of our fans cautioned not to get too excited about Manziel elevating the level of play around him.

Tour2ma Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 TJ Yates in an interesting name. I like Yates as well, but don't want a third QB on the active roster... just like Chip Kelly...

Tour2ma Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Browns trying to add veteran running back Posted by Zac Jackson on September 5, 2015, 12:17 PM EDT As the Browns finalize their roster cuts and sort through their outside options, a team source tells PFT the team has prioritized finding a veteran running back either by trade, waiver claim or signing at some point this weekend. The source said veteran players have relayed to the coaches their feelings that the younger backs and the offense in general will benefit from a veteran presence, on and off the field. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/09/05/browns-trying-to-add-veteran-running-back/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
