As a 4th round pick, it's almost assured he does.

Biggs looks to be a good one at the TE position, hope he makes the squad.

I also wouldn't be surprised to see Pryor cut this week.

Who are they cutting to make room for Mayle?

I think they hold on to Pryor honestly. He should play next week. They won't cut him before he plays in an actual game. A guy that big with that speed especially bc we are lacking that home run threat.

Yeah that wouldn't make any sense to cut him before he's healthy and even in a game lol

Not really sure, but 4th rounders are rarely cut in their rookie season unless they are a total disaster. Thats why I think they keep him.

I hope they keep him personally but with it being a numbers game this point it wouldn't shock me if they didn't. Especially if he continues to sit or is hurt again.

Does not being able to catch anything not qualify as a total disaster for a receiver?

I agree he's been bad, just don't see them cutting ties with him. Not trying to defend his play or anything like that. Just going off of history of the NFL in regards to draft picks.

So I haven't read everything to catch up, but I for one am hopeful that Johnny can continue to evolve. He seems like he's got his head on straight, he's improving, and showing a lot of good things. I've never been a Johnny supporter, but if these things continue to show up, he's going to win me over.

Best thing you saw last night was JFF scrambling in the pocket, but not getting flustered and taking off. Even on the final rush when he got 15 yards, he stayed as long as he could behind the line. That is a great sign.

I'm not a Manziel fan AT ALL...but if him and McCown are anywhere close to each other...Manziel better start. Not going far with a mid 30's QB, might as well see what you have in Manziel for the year, or go down with the ship and take that #1 pick next year.

A better question would be, "What's the chance T Pryor makes any team this season and sets the world on fire as the ultimate WR threat who completely revolutionizes the game since NOBODY could ever cover his combination of size and speed?"

We could have have two categories of respondents to cover all the demographics. The Footwedge demo (99.9999999% likely) and the Everyone Else demo (lolwut %).

Two reasons why this brings the lulz. All those people who said the Browns should give up a 3rd rd pick for Mallet, and the fact Hoyer is still a starting QB in the NFL. I actually won't be surprised to see Hoyer have a similar start as last year, but then teams will get film and it will fall apart. His QB ratings with (97) and without (65) the play action says it all to me. He needs a running game to be successful.

Mallet sucks, Hoyer sucks, but I would take Hoyer's left arm over Johnny Manziel or McClown.

Here's one site. Not sure if it's what you're looking for....

http://www.jerseysus.top/nike-nfl-jerseys-cleveland-browns-jersey-c-24_33.html?page=3&sort=20a

May have to snag one of those Danny Shelton jerseys. Don't normally go with a rookie but, barring injury, I think he's going to be a freak.

Here's another...

http://www.cheapnfljerseyus.com/cleveland-browns-c-561_987_595/?zenid=t58v3766p6ah42p8gkg269skg2

no clue how reputable these sites are. I just googled "cheap Chinese NFL replica jerseys" and that's what came up.
