Around the Dawg Pound: Late Sunday Night Cleveland Browns Links

The Cleveland Browns begin their second round of OTAs this week, which is all well and good, but it won’t provide much insight into the

team’s roster plans for the upcoming season. There will continue to be plenty of speculation, especially at the quarterback position, but the fact remains that this is only the last week of May and nothing substantial will come from these practices.

However, OTAs are still a great opportunity for the team to get used to each other, to understand the system, and to include the rookies. That alone is exciting enough about these practices, even if their results are somewhat of a mirage.

In any case, here are some Cleveland Browns links on this late Sunday evening:
