Cleveland Browns

Frye traded to Seattle

The Browns got a sixth-round pick for Charlie Frye.
They had to make a move. Charlie was a complete disaster in the Pittsburgh game. He has no pocket presence, and he has no clue where to throw the ball.
Yes, the line was bad, but Anderson was able to buy more time at times by simply stepping […]

Browns pick Joe Thomas with first pick

What a relief!
I was terrified that they might pick Brady Quinn. #3 is just way too high for Quinn.
Also, I liked Peterson, but that injury changed my mind and had to affect their thinking as well.
Thomas is a stud. He excels against speedy, athletic pass rushers. He will be a huge asset against teams like […]

Winslow on track?

Kellen Winslow claims the Internet rumors that he would miss the 2007 season are false. He claims he’s ahead of schedule in his rehab.

Browns stay busy

Eric Steinbach was the high-profile signing, but the Browns have been busy adding more players that will help fill out their roster. Defensive lineman Robaire Smith should be a starter at right end and can move to the middle on passing downs. Offensive lineman Seth McKinney was injured last season and might be a risk, […]

Browns deal Droughns

Trading Reuben Droughns makes sense now that we have Jamal Lewis.
This is definitely an upgrade at the tailback position. If Lewis is healthy, the Browns will have a legitimate offense next season, especially if they add another lineman as everyone expects. It’s hard to warm up to the former Raven, but he can be a […]

Lewis says he still has speed

Now that he has had bone spurs removed from his ankle, Jamal Lewis says he can still run with the best of them:
He said he is fully recovered from off-season surgery to remove bone spurs in an ankle and, when in condition, could run a 40-yard dash in the low 4.4 (seconds) or high 4.3s.
Meanwhile, […]

Grossi speculates that Browns might cut Droughns

Tony Grossi provides some info that might help explain the Browns’ strategy:
Droughns is due a $1.75 million roster bonus on March 17. He also is due a $1.25 million base salary, which means he is a $3 million player if the Browns keep him.
That might have been the figure that Lewis agreed to. He […]

Browns sign Jamal Lewis to one-year deal

What are they thinking? Are they still thinking of taking Adrian Peterson? Does this mean they will release Rueben Droughns?
Maybe they’re not sold on Peterson, or maybe they’ll dump Droughns and still go after Peterson.
Lewis does give them a power back that will help in the tough AFC North, but I hope this doesn’t mean […]

The Brady Quinn rumors are heating up again

From John Clayton at ESPN:
QB Brady Quinn had his workout Sunday at Notre Dame. He was OK. Quinn did a good job on the inside pass. What was interesting was who was there to watch the workout. The Browns, Vikings and Texans attended with big collection of owners, coaches and general managers. The Browns asked […]

Browns get good start with free agents

By adding G Eric Steinbach and LB Antwan Peek, the Browns are off to a good start in free agency. They also go good news from Ryan Tucker, sho said he’s ready to reclaim his starting right tackle job next season.
They still need to fill the right guard spot and the need help on the […]
