Jabrill Peppers - Winning over Ohio, one scrimmage at a time
As predicted by yours truly the day he was drafted, our own Mr. Jabrill Peppers is quickly ending any of the" TSUN" hater nonsense from Browns fans & media through his play on the field. Last night the Browns held an open scrimmage at First Energy and the two players that stood out the most were Myles Garrett and JP.
I've been telling everybody here since the day he put on his #27 #22 Browns jersey by seasons end he will be the most popular player on the Browns. Even with those who wear their OSU crap to Browns games.

The more I see Jabrill Peppers the more I like him; think he has the potential to really help the #Browns defensively & in the return game

I think @BeauBishop just said it best when it comes to Jabrill Peppers: "You see a picture of him in a uniform and he just looks cool"

Hopefully he doesn't return that many kicks.

He sure returned a shit-ton of them for Michigan. Did it worry you last year when he was doing it for us instead of the Browns?
BTW they didnt show it last night but the FIRST thing they worked on with Peppers in the Browns first practice was running the Wildcat offense. Hue Jackson has said he wants the ball in Jabrill's hands 5-7 times a game. Said he'd be "crazy" not to.

Want him to have as long a career as possible.

There was an open scrimmage and there was no video footage? Help out people like me who are too lazy to look.
I've caught bits of it via footage captured by reporters there who posted on twtter. Here's the cliffnote version:
1. Defense looked good but but disclaimers cause the offense looked terrible. Garrett and Peppers stood out.
2. The Browns QB derby is still even. They all sucked.
3. Brock sucked the leasted of them all and will prolly start to get some 1st team reps starting today.
4. Nobody got hurt.
On to the next one -New Orleans Thursday night.

He was there at #21. Enjoy the greatness that is Jarrod Davis-we'll keep Jabrill here in Cleveland thank you very much.

Had it right in the title & wrong in the body. FWIW I'm posting this on a Surface Pro 4 tablet and font size is somewhere between ant size and microscopic so I actually thought I had the second "l" in there.

I even locked in his comment, upvoted it and explained why I did it. The cowards way out would've been to make the change, say nothing and make it look like he misread what I typed.

Because clearly this $639 tablet is WAY fancier than anything the great unwashed are posting on in this thread.
Suck that LOSERS.

Never really thot about before but I'll be the dismal performance of the Browns since the late 80's fueled much of the OSU "love" since then. i mean you see people that went to OU, Toledo, BG, Cinci, Kent, Akron, you name it, all rooting for the fucking Buckeyes instead of their own school.
But I'll bet if the day ever comes (and hopefully it's coming soon) when the Browns are a good football team again that will start to diminish some. That's an excellent point you made.

There will be a lot of GM's kicking themselves in the ass for buying into the "tweener" talk about Jabrill leading up to the draft. Dude was one of the best football players in CFB last year. A true football player is rare and he is going to be a great one in the NFL.

with the #23 pick. I hope we don't end up regretting that decision...

one-gajillion percent!

As a fellow Giants fan, I also would have been stoked, but we already have Landon Collins. Not that we couldn't also use Jabrill, but the Giants were one of the teams in the draft for whom Jabrill was the poorest fit. There were definitely areas of greater need to be addressed, although TE was certainly not the most pressing. Still super excited to see what Eli can do if all those weapons stay healthy!

That's not your typical Ohio fan though (MGrowOld excluded).
The Browns drafting him was a win-win for them. He either helps their team win, or he's a bust and they get to preach about how they told everyone he was always overrated.
I live in Ohio and sure I get ball busting for liking Michigan, but it is all in good fun minus a few dbags. Sorry to kill your sad negative narrative.

has been able to unlock his potential after it was so wasted at UM /s.
