Watson has Zero NFL snaps.... but gets 3 weeks on roster ahead of Alex Leatherwood? Looks bigger than 260 lbs, if that's on a 6'5" frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Harris is only 6'1" so I'm guessing we won't see him filling in at Left Tackle. Where I could see him helping is lining up at FB even more frequently to chip the edge rusher across from the LT filling in. Another option the Browns have that we haven't seen them do yet this year - is to go with an unbalanced line where they can line up any offensive lineman they want to the left of the guy filling in at LT. This could be a spot where they would consider using Harris unless they would still prefer a longer wing span to the left of the LT. Last year, the Browns did an unbalanced line when Conklin got hurt early on at RT - I think they used Hance and Dunn as the 2 OL to the right of Wyatt Teller. As short term as it was, it was an efficient formation for the Browns' situation at the time. It'll be interesting to see what they do.

If we have to joel can slide to tackle (was it in 21 when he played 2 games there ?) and nick can hold his own at guard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't trying to put words in your mouth as much as I was thinking out loud in how many different ways he can help us. We can also line him outside of the Left Tackle further away from the QB (as either blocking TE/or extra linemen in an unbalanced line. I say this because some teams like to also blitz a LBer to the outside of their edge rusher. We can also continue to line Nick up as a FB to chip the edge. These are ways the Browns/Nick can help the backup LT position if he needs it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
