No Hitner, Indians struggles and Akron yodels … While We’re Waiting

The Browns concluded day two of mini-camp on Wednesday. Practice was once again indoors due to inclement weather. Here is what some of the media assembled in Berea had to say about the squad’s second practice session.
#Browns DE Desmond Bryant is practicing today. Had cardiac ablation in Dec. Missed minicamp yesterday for personal reason.

#Browns DE Desmond Bryant said he chose to undergo cardiac ablation to decrease putting himself at further risk. Confident it'll work.

#Browns LB Karlos Dansby on ex-teammate Dockett saying he chased $: That's his opinion. I'm a visionary, a leader. Opportunity to win here.

New O-lineman Keavon Milton (6-4, 300), the pride of Canton (Texas), played in only 14 snaps as a Browns TE in 2013.

Quentin Groves just said he thinks Manziel a little faster than RG3 who has longer stride; how to defend him? "pray for help"

#Browns LB Donte Whitner is no longer considering legally changing his last name to Hitner: "I don't like paperwork.''

Sigh. He’s not a linebacker.

Don’t get too big Barkevious. You need to stay fast to play safety!
“I’m a visionary”
Oy. Dude, it’s ok to chase the cash before this violent game chews you up and spits you out walking with a limp for your remaining days. Just play hard while you chase the cash and everyone here will love you plenty..
Am I understanding that Keavon Milton added weight to switch from TE to OL? Well that’s pretty interesting, isn’t it? That happens all of the time when guys move from high school to college, but pretty rare at the NFL level, no?
I feel queezy…
Pettine was even telling Alex Mack during negotiations that he better be taking Mingo out to steakhouses so he packs on the beef. Sorry RGB, no safety for Barky.
If the Browns make the playoffs this year, then he is a visionary for seeing that he can be part of the success.
(hey, it’s April, gotta read these things with the orange tint)
I am guessing that fringe players will switch positions in a desperate attempt to remain on the roster if a coach asks them.
fine.
we put clowney at safety after drafting him as per the #KRM.
We’re gonna be putting some WRs in the ER! 😀
I like your style!
Matthew Campbell played TE at my high school and then the University of South Carolina. He bulked up and switched to OL in the NFL for the Carolina Panthers.
How about this for a question to be answered. What kind of shape is Chris Faulk in? Can he be a contributor in a zone blocking scheme as a guard or tackle?
Wow. What a great wrap-up of minicamp. Yea Twitter!
(So, did anything happen at minicamp, besides drama?)
Just remember this moment when he catches a tackle eligible touchdown to put us into the playoffs. Pettine is a planner 🙂
