I tihnk this is a great pickup for the Browns...I think Simon Fraser has enough ability/intelligence to play in the league for a while...I was very happy overall with the Brown's moves, I think Charlie Frye is a great pickup...
Honestly, I'm surprised about the Mo Hall pickup, he must be doing really well in his recovery...it would seem that his history of knee problems would make teams a lot more hesitant...I definitely see it as a special teams pickup, and I think that is the one place Mo Hall could succeed

Has anyone heard what happened with Brandon Joe? I hope someone will at least give him a look.

I love the idea of Fraser being a Brown as a DE/OLB prospect. Mo Hall would make a good third down back if Tomlinson would ever get his ass off the field. I do think that Mo's usefulness, right now, will be as a kick returner, and probably will be on kick coverage too.

They both get a pat on the back and as for Fraser specifically, I think he has a great chance at a solid career and even though he'll probably never get the chance, I hope he gives Braylon Edwards a shot in practice someday. Just my little fantasy.

Doubt Mo Hall will get much of a shot with the chargers since they drafted sproles, an ideal third down back |

I'm happy to see Fraser end up in Cleveland...I was surprised to see that he didn't drafted...though not nearly as much as Shazor not being drafted..
BTW osugrad21....thanks for the invite...I told you I'd make it here eventually..

Well, as Fraser majored in Criminology, after a couple of years (hopefully more) perhaps he will do a stint in the NFL's enforcement office.

If Fraser can make an impact by rotating in on the line he should be able to have a few good years in the league. Kenny Peterson has done that over the last few years and he's still with the Packers. He hasn't made a huge impact but he's played the roll they need him for... that's what Fraser needs to do.
