First, Lance and Dan Labbe look back on Tuesday's training camp practice and what stood out. It was Lance's first chance to see the 2023 Browns in-person, so he runs down what he noticed.

The Browns had their first practice of training camp back in Berea.

Jim Schwartz talked about the defense not being there yet which is certainly understandable, then the defense went out and stacked together another strong day.

Myles Garrett was relentless all day and rookie cornerback Cameron Mitchell had a pick six return.

The practice featured more game like conditions, two minute drill and no huddle offense.

Cedric Tillman and Donovan Peoples-Jones had highlight reel catches, while second year kicker Cade York had a flawless day.

National media seems to be turning towards being in on the Browns, the reason is simple. The roster is loaded and Jim Schwartz is a top notch boss on defense.

Anthony Joki and Jackson McCurry are back with another update from Browns' Training Camp as they conclude practices at The Greenbrier and return to Berea.

On today's episode:

- Browns bring in Shelby Harris for a visit/workout

- Elijah Moore the star of camp so far

- David Njoku also building a good connection with Deshaun Watson

- Denzel Ward looking to bounce back under Jim Schwartz

- The guys touch on the Guardians trade of Aaron Civale

With the Browns back in the building in Berea, they hosted veteran defensive tackle Shelby Harris.

Harris fits the defense very well as he can provide interior pass rush. He visited Denver, and Seattle is still interested so if the Andrew Berry and company want him the are going to have to be aggressive.

The move would make sense as the team has plugged their other weakness' on defense with veterans already.

Some thoughts on Joe Thomas as he heads toward Canton to enshrined.

New midfield logo coming, as long as it's not elf . Jeff is fine with it.

The Cleveland Browns concluded their training camp getaway at the Greenbrier in West Virginia. In what had been a week of the offense showing out today the defense got their revenge in. Even though in shells the defense had plenty of would be sacks and even the plays the coaches let go on the secondary had stout coverage all day.

Myles Garrett and Obo Okoronkwo were menacesall day.

There were some fights at today's practice which Coach Stefanski dealt with by forcing the guys to run sprints.

The secondary has been getting very tough reps with the wide receivers and tight ends which should help with the Bengals waiting week one.

Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson was one who stood out on offense and let's see if he can keep that going as we figure he sees a lot of playing time in the Hall of Fame game on Thursday.

Mary Kay joined Dan Labbe on Saturday night to answer questions from our Football Insider subscribers about what they saw in training camp over the last week.

Then they answer questions about which positions they feel good about after this week, players who stepped up, potential breakout players and much more.

As the training camp road trip in West Virginia winds down it's been apparent to this point the offense is looking vastly improved.

Deshaun Watson has been throwing with great velocity and great accuracy all week at camp, it really looks like he's getting back into his comfort zone.

Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson is starting find some footing and should challenge for the Browns back-up job sooner than later.

Elijah Moore, Donovan Peoples-Jones, and even Daylen Baldwin have showed to reliable targets through seven practices.

David Njoku is just a mismatch nightmare, too athletic for linebackers and too big for defensive backs to cover.
