Browns Plainly Podcast

The Browns are expecting to contend this year and that means the spotlight will be back on Cade York as he enters Year 2 as the team's kicker. York is the subject of one of our 23 questions for the Browns in 2023.

Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe start today's Orange and Brown Talk Podcast by discussing York. What impact will Bubba Ventrone have on him? How will York bounce back from an up-and-down rookie season?

Then they look at the wide receiver position. What does the future hold for Anthony Schwartz and David Bell. Does either player have a role? Could they both be on the bubble?

As the Cleveland Browns get ready to travel to West Virginia to begin training camp there are still some final questions about the roster. We discuss this and Pete gives us his Browns Mount Rushmore and see if Myles Garrett is on a path towards that accolade.

The running backs behind Nick Chubb is still a talking point, will the young kids get a chance? Is there a veteran coming through free agency or trade?

The offensive line is shifting most likely to more pass protection, but it's hard to believe this group of veterans aren't up for the challenge.

We all know about the newness of the Defense, which should take some time to marinate.

Cornerback two and edge rusher four and five should lead to some to some tough decisions over the next six weeks.

The Browns and Bengals both have their franchise quarterbacks in place, so we got the crews from both Orange and Brown Talk and Strictly Stripes together for our third annual NFL quarterback draft.

Mary Kay Cabot and Ashley Bastock join Dan Labbe from our Browns beat are joined by Bengals reporters, Andrew Gillis and Mohammad Ahmad for the annual tradition of drafting quarterbacks.

The intrigue, of course, is where Joe Burrow and Deshaun Watson land. The five go through three rounds, picking 15 quarterbacks and discuss each one. How high does Burrow go? How much are we betting on Watson's return to pre-Cleveland form?

Check out our draft on this special crossover edition of the Orange and Brown Talk and Strictly Stripes podcast.

The Training Camp Preview series continues as today's focus is on the Quarterback position.

Deshaun Watson had the Browns make a major investment in him at a time when he was in a low place. The same folks who aided him now need him to back up their play by being the elite player he has shown to be in the past. Deshaun needs to play at top level and allow head coach Kevin Stefandki and general manager Andrew Berry to secure their futures in Cleveland.

The back-up quarterback race (which hopefully never matters( is more interesting then most think. If it is a legit battle Dorian Thompson-Robinson should be able to beat out veteran Josh Dobbs.

Deshaun Watson will break a bunch of Browns passing records this year.

Where do Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski and Bengals head coach Zac Taylor rank among NFL head coaches and AFC North head coaches?

It's a question we set out to answer with our third annual NFL coaches draft.

Browns reporters Mary Kay Cabot and Dan Labbe are joined by cleveland.com Bengals reporter Andrew Gillis to draft NFL coaches. They go four rounds, picking 12 total. Did Stefanski and Taylor get picked? If so, how high or low did they go? Why did they land -- or not land -- where they did?

They pick coaches and discuss their reasoning behind each pick.

We continue the Cleveland Browns training camp preview series with this episodes focus on the Offensive line.

The Browns starting offensive line returns in tact for the 2023 season. Bitonio, Teller, and Pocic on the interior were a terrific group last season and the thought is that will continue as this team transitions on offense.

Jack Conklin is back and healthy with a new contract the Browns could use a full year of him as the passing game becomes the focal point.

Jedrick Wills hopes to finally put it all together in year four otherwise it makes for an awkward off-season between he and the franchise.

The Browns have nice youth in the room for a change in Hudson, Jones, and Wypler but can these kids develop with-out much playing time?

The whole offensive line will be in a new to them position as this team may attempt 500 passes this season.

Are you ready for the first full NFL season in Ohio with legal gambling?

On our Friday podcast today, Doug Lesmerises and Dan Labbe got together to figure out some bets they're keeping an eye on as the Browns season approaches.

They start by digging through some Browns bets. How bullish do you want to be on this team with Deshaun Watson? Could they win the North? What's the right win total?

Could some Browns players win some awards? They throw out some opportunities.

Then they look at the NFL and come up with some interesting long shots to watch and some other bets they like.

The Training Camp Preview series continues as we focus on the wide receivers. This room is deep and ready to produce.

Amari Cooper was very impressive in '22 with a difficult quarterback situation and although he will likely see less targets this season the production should stay around the same as Cleveland will be throwing the more frequently.

Donovan Peoples-Jones enters his contract year, he's been a fascinating player to watch develop from former sixth round pick to starter.

Elijah Moore was a huge get for General Manager Andrew Berry. He differs from other Browns wide receivers and the slate should be set for career numbers.

Marquisse Goodwin brings a skill set and has looked good thus far but there's plenty of young competition.

David Bell and Cedric Tillman will find playing time if they contribute those reps could grow.
