FB Owen Marecic: Two concussions in his rookie season have to be a concern.

WR Mohamed Massaquoi: Was second-most targeted player but finished with fifth in receptions.
I just threw up.

I think Owen is going to be a fine FB. Massaquoi has a lot of work to do. Unfortunately we really didn't get anyone on the roster to push him smh. Maybe since Moore is converting a WR, he will push Massquoi? Also, I hope the Browns give Cameron more looks now. They need to find out if he is worth it or not. I hate keeping "projects" on the sidelines.

I knew you'd come running to defend him. He didn't play well, plain and simple. That with his concussions makes him a player I don't want to count on. Wasted pick by heckert, should have kept Vickers.

I think mo mass will do pretty well this year. He has shown flashes, just needs to be on a team that's competitive.

I knew you would still have Vickers' penis in your mouth. Might as well get rid of Little with that idiotic logic.

Oh, I know. Should've said "good find."

I think Smelley has a chance of bumping Marecic.

Yep. Great at Twitter...not so great in getting on the field.

Agreed. OBR seems to think that will be case.

Still don't understand that, not one bit. Robo was "starting" for us and giving us nothing.

I called out Mitchell on twitter, but he didn't have a response. Just said "i wasn't worth the time" and stopped following me. He sucks at twitter too.

He must not be able to catch the football because anybody with that speed should be able to get on the field to at least run a 9 route.

Might make the competition more competitive, but I think Smelley was a reach pick.

I don't think that's it since it's not like the rest of the receivers have Jerry Rice hands. My guess would be that he doesn't know the playbook and therefore they CAN'T put him out there.

Complete guess though....don't see any other reason why he wouldn't at least be given an opportunity.

I'm guessing that was sarcasm? No such thing as a 7th round reach pick.

So besides the fullback, are you guys liking that lineup? I personally get a big smile when I see Trent Richardson as our starting RB. :D

I see the Richardson jerseys are available on the nfls webby....I will probably grab on at Kohls when I get one of their 10 dollar off thingys. Rule of thumb, never invest a lot of money in cleveland players. Lesson one stares at me everyday....my Gerard Warren jersey. Lesson two was given to good will...my Lebron gear.

I'll get one of my buddies to pick one up for me in Korea. For 22$. And they look amd feel identical. I have a few osu jerseys from this lady and I swear to you that you'd never be able to tell it wasn't bought from the team shop.

It's amazing. My buddy married a Korean girl and her aunt worked at a real shop that made authentic jerseys for us customers. And then she quit and started doing them herself. Makes some awesome stuff.
