Kevin Hogan. Jesus, remember the 20+ page Saquon Barkley thread he had in the run-up to the 2018 draft? In fact, the months leading up to the Browns drafting Captain Cheesecakes and Denzel Ward was probably the busiest this board has ever been.

ballpeen Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 Camp arm? Maybe, but I think the Browns are still looking for that developmental QB. After Winston who is the clear #2 QB, everybody else isn't what I would call developmental. We aren't looking at Huntley as a long term player. For whatever reason, DTR is on the ropes in that regard. I think Sirmon has a chance to stick. Obviously it will boil down to how he shows in camp. IMO Huntly was signed to become a trade chip. As teams get in to camp some will come to the realization they aren't good enough behind their starting QB and will start looking for other options. Huntley has played and some team might be willing to toss a 5th rounder our way to secure his services. One could insert the name DTR in to the above situation. Just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noted. so you are saying that the 49ners wanted to lose when they started Brock Purdy? you are saying the Patriots wanted to lose when they started Brady? You are saying the Browns wanted to lose when they started Brian Sipe? etc etc etc. Maybe he could be a starter the next few years - he seems to have serious skills. But you are saying he's a loser qb? duly noted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing says serious skills like transferring from the U of Washington to Northern Colorado I Have Zero Idea What Their Nickname Is and throwing for 1355 yards and eight touchdowns passing in his senior year, but hey, you might be right. It's obvious from his photo that he has copious amounts of character. He has that certain characteristic you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 I'm certainly not pinning any hopes on this Sirmon guy that they invited to come to the rookie festivities. But he's got good size. And he did enough to get signed. He's got a couple of development QB's ahead of him, one that we drafted. His odds are long but he's currently on our team and I wish the guy well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I was expecting better, like multiple answers to himself. He's falling down on his job.🤫⌛ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they added another kicker to compete with Cade York for the practice squad kicker spot. I have been thinking about this and am not so sure these guys are competing for a PS position. With the new kick-off rules, kickers are going to be more involved in the actual defense of that play. I don't think the team wants Hopkins having to run around covering kicks. He is older and has a history of pulling leg muscles when he does. Since it looks like a few more starter types will play on kick-offs, you won't need as many traditional special teams players like gunners, so teams could opt to keep a 2nd kicker on the team. A younger, more limber kicker whose job will be to kick on kick-offs and make tackles if needed, the other to do the place kicking. New rules might require new thinking.

I was actually thinking that the kicker would have less tackling to do under the new kickoff rules since he'd be the only one set way back. He'd be the last hope...and we know how useless kickers are as the last hope. But I'm anxious to see the preseason start for to see how teams place their kickoffs as opposed to kicking it through the end zone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know all the rules to this, but if you kick it out of the endzone isn't the ball placed at the 35-40 yard line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was going to be the 35 but in the 11th hour they changed it to the 30. I think I'd probably just try to kick it through the back of the end zone, but I'd try some 'stuff' during the preseason to see what happens.
