Baker Mayfield‘s going to get plenty of exposure http://www.officialsharks.com/authentic-adidas-logan-couture-jersey , particularly when Hard Knocks cranks up to document the Browns and their No. 1 pick in training camp.
But for the moment, the Browns are trying to ease him into life in the NFL, on and off the field.
Via聽Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the Browns haven’t made Mayfield available for interviews during their two open OTAs, and he’s still working with the third string, behind Tyrod Taylor and Drew Stanton.
“He’s done some good things,” Jackson said. “He obviously is learning the National Football League game, but he’s working at it each and every day. He goes in there and gets his reps Patric Hornqvist Jersey , and he makes the most of them. As I said before, we drafted a very talented player. Glad that we have him. He works extremely hard. He’s competing hard. . . .
“As we go, there will be more that he gets. We’ve got to start him off and get him acclimated to all of this and how it all works through meetings, his teammates, the locker room, being on the field and being coached.”
There has been a specific emphasis on getting him comfortable under center, since he worked mostly from the shotgun in college. But Jackson said there has only been one ball on the ground, a sign of progress.
And they’re apparently willing to let him learn at his own pace.
WASHINGTON REDSKINS (7-9)
New faces: QB Alex Smith Derrick Henry Jersey Big , RB Adrian Peterson, WR Paul Richardson, DT Daron Payne, DT Tim Settle, OLB Pernell McPhee, CB Adonis Alexander.
Key losses: QB Kirk Cousins, WR Terrelle Pryor, WR Ryan Grant Lars Eller Jersey , TE Niles Paul, DL Terrell McClain, LB Will Compton, CB Bashaud Breeland, S DeAngelo Hall.
Strengths: Smith gives Redskins stability at most important position under QB guru coach Jay Gruden. Peterson has potential to boost running game after season-ending injury to rookie Derrius Guice. Richardson gives Smith speed at wideout that Cousins lacked last season. Offensive line has five starters back with LT Trent Williams returning from major knee surgery. DL Jonathan Allen should improve run defense after missing most of rookie year.
Weaknesses: Injury woes that derailed last season continue to deplete depth. Running game and overall defense no sure things after 2017 struggles. If Peterson doesn’t have much left at 33, Rob Kelley and Samaje Perine are same RBs who couldn’t establish consistent presence last season. Gruden has lost all four season openers since becoming coach. Secondary is untested beyond CB Josh Norman and S D.J. Swearinger.
Fantasy Players To Watch: TE Jordan Reed. After undergoing two toe surgeries, Reed could be back to 2015 form, when he had 87 catches for 952 yards and 11 TDs. Gruden’s offense is predicated on spreading ball around Rick Nash Jersey , but 6-foot-2, 245-pound Reed is matchup nightmare who could become popular target for Smith.
Vegas Says: Super Bowl 90-1. Over/Under wins 7 .
Expectations: If everything goes perfectly, Redskins can challenge for NFC East title and make playoffs. More likely they’re again fringe playoff team and can finish anywhere from 6-10 to 10-6. Difficult schedule on paper makes start at Arizona and against Indianapolis crucial. Guice’s injury puts pressure on Smith and Peterson to carry offense in their 30s. If run defense and pass rush are better with Payne and healthy Allen and young secondary overperforms, this is playoff-caliber team. Questions remain about Smith and first-team offense being able to jell after limited preseason work. Another rash of injuries like last year could derail season. Drop-off in performance absent injuries could put Gruden’s job in danger.
