Zombo Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 The Cleveland Browns have claimed RB Darius Jackson via waivers from Dallas. To make room on the roster, the team waived LB Corey Lemonier. Jackson is a 6-0, 220 pound rookie out of Eastern Michigan. Originally selected by Dallas in the sixth round, he was inactive for all 13 games this season. Jackson rushed for 1,078 yards and scored 16 touchdowns during his senior season at EMU. He is a native of Sparta, Ill. Lemonier appeared in eight games this season and logged nine tackles, two sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

Zombo Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 I think Lemonier had a sack Sunday ... surprised we didn't cut Atkinson, we never use him. Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I realize the kid "got Zeke'd" but am in draft mode here...Can't find nothing on the crucial Hand size law on this board? nor a Fumble issue guy nor injury background on this kid? Crow & Duke want facts not whacked..I need more ScoutMaster Time!! Dude can fly for 6ft. 220lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clevfan4life Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 wtf? not that lemonier was killing it but he was like 3rd on the team in sacks without getting a whole lot of playing time. And we cut him for a RB of which we already have two pretty good backs. Help me understand. If there's anything on this team that shows a semblance of competence it's our running game. Calm down i said semblance. But nothings gonna look spectacular behind that O line. I don't understand getting rid of a pass rusher that's been seen around the QB in a year where we don't see alot of pass rushers in orange helmets around opposing QB's. Another head scratcher.

Orion Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I think Lemonier had a sack Sunday ... surprised we didn't cut Atkinson, we never use him. Zombo ^^this Can he block a nose tackle? We could use someone like that... I read where his pro day #'s do not match the tape on him. Dances behind the LOS type of guy. I understand, what have we got to lose at this point, try him on for size. He looks good getting off the bus. But why not keep the Lemon guy? Would we even miss Atkinson?

gftChris Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Ray Farmer used to do it a lot - I remember lots of complaints about how he was more worried about the guys numbers 50-53 on the roster than the starting line up. Now, it seems, our FO has had some moderate success on the OL with Reiter and Cooper. So, that's something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombo Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Lemonier is terrible. Though, I'm surprised it wasn't Can Johnson who has been inactive a lot recently. I think he starts every week and had a sack Sunday too. Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gftChris Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 He does start. But I'm yet to see him do much with any consistency. Maybe I'm missing something but it seemed every time a run got bounced outside because of good play upfront, Lemonier was the one who couldn't make the tackle or funnel it back inside.

Opal312 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Instead of drafting at 2, 4, or 22 we get Darius Jackson an undrafted free agent nobody ever heard of. Meanwhile, Khalil Mack is killing it! He leads the league in sacks while Justin Gilbert is where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, Khalil Mack is killing it! He leads the league in sacks while Justin Gilbert is where? So, you are opposed to this adminstration picking up a RB on waivers because the past administration whiffed on Mack and Gilbert? Makes a lot of sense. Good teams never try to add talent to the bottom of the roster. Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudfly Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Good teams never try to add talent to the bottom of the roster. Zombo Right.....a complaint that I hear, but dont really understand......heard it a ton last year too(Gip)..... that is.....we spend all our effort adding to the bottom, while ignoring the top/... and the simple answer/explanation is that, during the season, the primary(only) source for signing talent is the waiver wire. So, it only stands to reason that.....1) we will sign someone who is an unemployed, waiver player......2) once signed, someone will be cut to create a roster spot....and that person will be #50-53 on the roster.... Thats how it works......no superstars available during the season.....so, yeah, we focus only on the bottom....almost exclusively and HOPE that one of those pick ups climbs the ladder..... exception???.....mid season trades(which rarely happen)......Collins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Darius Jackson and waiver pickups have what exactly to do with a past draft under different leadership? Was Mack on waivers and I missed it?
