During our training camp preview on the safety position for the Cleveland Browns, we asked four poll questions to fans.
In Part 1 of our Safety Preview, we asked who fans thought the team’s starting free safety would be. 58% went with my guy, Ed Reynolds, while 32% said Jason McCourty. The 11% in the “other” category can probably be chalked up to support for Kai Nacua.

Our other question basically asked, “If Jabrill Peppers plays a Swiss army role and the team thus needs a third [strong] safety, who would that guy be?” Newcomer Calvin Pryor led the way with 59%, followed by Derrick Kindred (36%) and Ibraheim Campbell (4%).
Poll
Let’s assume Jabrill Peppers has a clearly defined role, but the team also has a regular "strong safety" who essentially sees starting reps. Who would that be?

In Part 2 of our Safety Preview, we asked if fans thought Kai Nacua, an undrafted free agent, will make the 53-man roster. 60% of fans believe he will.
Poll
Do you think Kai Nacua will make the Browns’ 53-man roster this year?
Our final poll asked about whether fans thought Ibraheim Campbell and/or Trey Caldwell will make the final roster this year. 46% of fans believe that both will be cut, and only 7% believe they'll both make the roster. When it comes to individual support, only 34% of fans think Campbell will make the roster, and only 27% think Caldwell has a spot. Those aren’t good numbers for either player.

That wraps up all of our training camp positional previews! Training camp officially begins on Thursday, but our preview coverage isn’t done yet. We’ll recap what the top position battles heading into camp are, and I’ll also provide my first 53-man roster projection of the year.
