Should be interesting as they will have Adams at LT and will be sliding Colon from the right side, where he played tackle, to the left side to play guard. They'll have a rookie at LT and a guy not only switching positions (tackle to guard) but sides of the line (right to left). They will also be relying on these guys to protect Roethlisbergers backside.

Tucker said there's no guarantee that Colon will make a smooth transition since there have been plenty of solid tackles who have tried to move to guard and have failed miserably. He said that the game is "faster" at guard as tackles have time to adjust to a rusher where at guard the defender is right on top of you immediately.

Hopefully this doesn't bode well for them.

Haden had a down/mediocre year last year but he's not a mediocre player.

So we're in the checkout and I can tell the cashier is kinda white trashy and should cut back on the carbs. I'm about to hand her my money (paid cash, rarely pay cash) and she notices my Browns hat & t-shirt. She proceeds to get an attitude and says "I can't take your money, you're a BROWNS fan....it might have some disease or voodoo curse on it or something." After I paid I said to her "I'm surprised you know what 'cash' is as I'm sure you're used to paying for everything with a plastic card that says 'State of Ohio Department of WELFARE' on it." She just looked at me dumbfounded....and I emphasize "dumb."

2. Weeden indeed was superb in rookie camp. One Browns football man told me, "He wasn't just accurate, he was ridiculously accurate. And his arm is strong." They had him under center more than 90 percent of the time. He had "zero" problems making the adjustment from the shotgun, which he used at Oklahoma State most of the time. Maybe this will change once people are being rushed and tackled, but the Browns went into rookie weekend with high expectations -- and Weeden exceeded them.
