dswerdlw Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 By his height and weight, I'm guessing that Keyes plays inside linebacker. Does anyone know for sure? I would like to see a QB on the practice squad, but I guess if we're down to our 3rd quarterback, it won't really matter who it is. And I'm crossing my fingers that Casey Dunn is a quality linemen.

Nope, I just got something regarding this. So Byron Marshall has been put to IR officially and Keyes has been signed to replace him. I haven't found a word regarding Nic Shimonek though, but it's been a weird day regarding those moves, Cutting Lyons 30 hours after signing him is Franck Kearse worse. And we'll work out WR Devin Lucien tomorrow. Maybe to replace the QB. Standig is usually well informed regarding this (he got nearly all the PS correct before anybody else), I just found it weird that it wasn't backed up by anyone. Riggo's Rag usually post something on guys that got signed to the PS, even the less known ones. Maybe they'll do somethng later in the evening, which I'll get tomorrow morning then.

bowhunter Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 QB Brogan Roback was released from the Browns. Draft Reports stated that he had a strong arm and was a good leader, needed some time to develop footwork and reads. In essence a raw talent. Seems like a great candidate to learn behind Alex and Colt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malapropismic Depository Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Keyes is another ex-Brown, and who has played for 6 teams in 3 years. That's an average of 2 TEAMS PER YEAR ! What did they see in this guy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, this FO has been so successful in recent memory that fans aren't allowed to question even minor roster moves? Please. That argument never has merit on a sports discussion forum but its even more ridiculous in this instance. To hold up our FO as some paragon of scouting excellence when discussing the worthiness of our 53rd player. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I would say guys like that are easily disposable unless they're just so awesome at it (like maybe Steve Tasker good). I also suspect he may be cut after Week 1 to sign a veteran as their contracts no longer have to be guaranteed after Week 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if Harrison is the best example. Dude played till he was 40, which is unheard of for a LB, so he's probably an exception to a few rules.

I was thinking he would be good practice squad material as I watch the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this guy, I think he would have made the Browns squad if they didn't have 2 NFL vets and Mayfield, he's super confident for someone who's never done anything and looked good in that last preseason game when he finally got some reps.

After that he had a great career, but it took him some time. Sure, it's unlikely this guy will do much, but if you don't take a chance sometimes you miss out on someone like Harrison.

I'm just surprised they cut Spaight for him, because he strikes me as a poorer version of Spaight. He'll mainly be used on Special Teams, and probably a fringe LB. Sort of like Chris Carter last year. He does appear to have good form on his tackling, though borderline helmet hits. Here he is, tackling Chiefs backup in preseason. Probably enough to get a few man-crushes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
