In a sign that Browns news will be starting to pick up again, we get word that the Browns have signed two of their draft picks. Good start. With all the other teams' signings I've been hearing about, I've been wondering what was happening in Berea.
I'm curious how the offseason tasks are working right now with Lerner filling in for John Collins' role. Is Lerner out there working on these deals? Doesn't sound like an ideal situation. Fortunately, at least these latter round picks have their deals essentially decided already. Its not until the first few rounds that they really have to be on top of the negotiating-ball to get good deals done in a timely manner.
Believe you me, if the pace doesn't start picking up, and if there are any guys who don't make it in to the start of training camp, there's going to be hell to pay. Lerner will hear about it every day once the Browns Press gets back in the action.

So we have a new fullback. This guy got some good reviews. Sounds like he can actually catch and carry the ball, instead of being a slightly-more-mobile-guard ala Terrell Smith.
Are we really going to carry multiple fullbacks on the roster? I guess that I can see it happen for Vicker's first year, but I have to assume that by this time next year either Smith will get the boot or Vickers will be demoted to the practice squad. I'd say we should put him on the practice squad now, but then he'd be fair game for other teams to sign.
Ace Davis has a very useful projected roster up. He invites people to propose changes (although his comments section is a pain to use). I tried to come up with some changes, because I doubt that Nick Speegle or Lee Suggs will get cut, but I just can't open up any holes on the roster.
