Cleveland Browns Undrafted Free Agent Signings

It seems as though teams have already been negotiating, and perhaps signing, undrafted free agents. The past few years, this website has been a great resource for following all of the latest UDFA signings. Use this as an open thread to discuss any players who the Browns have signed, especially if you've witnessed them play and can give a brief little scouting report on them.

Damn, the Saints got DeAndre McDaniel.

It would have been nice to get McDaniel. I’m not claiming to be an expert about safeties, but he was probably the 2nd most well known guy on the defense after Da’Quan. He was pretty good.

Flacco's first 3 years vs. Brady's, Manning's and Brees' first 3 years

Flacco threw for just 21 fewer passing yards than Brady and tossed four fewer interceptions. Flacco threw for 1,655 more yards than Brees, two more touchdowns and four fewer picks. Manning, who averaged 88 more passes per season, threw for way more yards and touchdowns than Flacco, but also tossed 24 more interceptions.

uhh, no you can’t. An random statement like “it could be taugh” isn’t even conceivable; how actually would you teach soft hands? Like algebra?

That’s the reason why catch problems plague players their entire career. How do you expect to “teach” hands to Mitchell when much, MUCH better players like Braylon and TO didn’t get it. And yet it came natural to players like Little with less experience?

conjecture

by The Licensed Pessimist on Jul 26, 2011 12:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

Its hard to teach feel but you can do it and you can definitely teach someone how to catch. For example, teaching them to use their hands instead of letting it get into your body.

by HenryDawg on Jul 26, 2011 12:53 PM EDT up reply actions  

You cannot not teach a grown man how to catch, simple as that. As a WR these player are expected to catch with their hands in certain catch situations. So they all know how to extend their arms and attempt to catch a ball with their hands, the problem is they suck at it.

That’s what it boils down to and that’s why your argument is wrong. The players already know how to catch with their hands, the problem is that they suck at it because it’s very mental. If they didn’t get it throughout high school and college then their not going to develop out of nowhere. Especially not a mediocre catcher like Mitchell.

Route running is more like math and is teachable. Not muscle manipulation

by The Licensed Pessimist on Jul 26, 2011 1:03 PM EDT up reply actions  

Muscle manipulation and mental blocks are completely teachable and are often overcome. If they weren’t nobody would ever take a golf lesson, they’ld be stuck with their crappy swing for life. Is it easy? No but these guys are pros now and they have lots of time to work on it.

by HenryDawg on Jul 26, 2011 1:09 PM EDT up reply actions  

That’s because for one, golf swings are done standing still focusing on a still ball.

A WR is running at full speed, the ball is flying through the air, a CB is on their neck, and they have to be aware of their environment(bounds). So you are using every muscle in your body and processing information all at once. That’s a LOT of mental and physical information being processed at once. It’s not as simple as reaching your damn hand out. The two are not comparable at all

by The Licensed Pessimist on Jul 26, 2011 1:17 PM EDT up reply actions  

These are pro athletes. Yeah its hard but it can be done and is done. Yeah its not reaching your hand out. If it was easy anyone would love to get paid hundreds of thousands, to millions of dollars to play a game.

by HenryDawg on Jul 26, 2011 2:25 PM EDT up reply actions  

I tend to agree with LP here, I don’t know of many guys that go from having terrible hands to good hands. I think route running is really the only teachable WR skill.

That sounds like a good idea, but you only have a finite amount of time to prepare your team for the upcoming season and a finite amount of resources to do so. Do we really want to spend our time and resources evaluating UDFAs? I would imagine that we’ve already done quite a bit of due diligence on these guys prior to the draft and before that we would not need to bring a bunch of them in to sift through.

Darian Hagan spurns Houston for Cleveland

I’m a Cal fan so I think all of our guys are great, but I think you guys got a really good one here. He had an up-and-down career in Berkeley for sure, but he was a lockdown RCB in 2008 and had a lot to offer in 2010 when he wasn’t injured. (A good example of that is the Cal vs. Arizona game in which he locked down the Pac-10’s best receiver in Juron Criner in single coverage up until about the last minute of the game when Criner hauls in a Hail Mary on a split possession ball.)

He was pretty much terrible on the field in 2009, but he was going through a truly harrowing experience with his 1 year old daughter having cancer that almost convinced him to leave school entirely, so he probably deserves a mulligan.

Physically, he’s fast and rangy and he isn’t afraid to come up in run support. He’s a tough kid with a great attitude and some damn fine results on the field. Had his life off the field w/r/t his family life and injury history gone differently, I think (unqualified opinion, grain of salt) that he would have been a mid-round draft pick with upside. I hope he sticks with you guys, I’d like to see him play on Sundays.

True story: I tried to watch Dumb and Dumber last week, but the tape was messed up. Watched Almost Famous instead.

Was one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen and I’m upset at myself for never watching it before.

This used to be my second most viewed site, behind only Yahoo! Sports. It’s passed that by far. The rest, according to Chrome, are: YouTube, Amazon, Twitter, Gmail, Along The Olengtangy, Facebook, in that order. It’s been keeping track since I built the new desktop about a year ago. The home screen only shows my top 8.

Jeff Wolfert set some NCAA records as a placekicker at Mizzou. Very accurate kicker. Have no idea why he wasn’t given a shot by a team like the Steelers or Redskins or Cowboys who had some miserable kickers.

It’s not, but Golan has one of these:

He just gets out a marker, updates his home made depth chart, and plugs it in for hours of Madden fun!

I have one in the basement. I never got the hang of kicking and I’d always lose about twenty yards running the ball.

Same. If memory serves I think we loosened up some screws so it would increase the vibration. Players flying around like crazy. Endless hours of fun. Wish I still had that thing.
