The Browns' calculated gamble on Anthony Schwartz and how his speed might pay off: Gotta Watch The Tape May 20, 2021

Show notes

Gotta Watch The Tape continues to dig into Browns draft picks with numbers and film, and up next is third-round pick and speed receiver Anthony Schwartz.

On this episode, Scott Patsko and Doug Lesmerises dive into the Auburn receiver; his size and speed; how he most effectively gets the ball; how he fits into the Browns receivers room; and his potential production this year. A few film clips from Auburn vs. Alabama show how Schwartz can help an offense without touching the ball, and also show where he can improve as a receiver.

Thanks for listening to another Gotta Watch The Tape in the Orange and Brown Talk feed.

The ideal role for every Browns draft pick in 2021 May 17, 2021

Show notes

The Browns held their rookie minicamp over the weekend. There wasn't much to see considering the reduced size of the roster for the minicamp, but we did at least get to see all the rookies on the field -- or, at least, most of them.

Mary Kay Cabot, Scott Patsko and Dan Labbe go through the 2021 draft class and figure out what the ideal role for each player will be in 2021 in today's edition of the podcast.

How Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah may disrupt opposing offenses in unique ways: Gotta Watch The Tape May 14, 2021

Show notes

On this Gotta Watch The Tape episode, second-round pick Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah gets the full numbers breakdown from Scott Patsko and the full film breakdown from Ellis Williams.

Scott, Ellis and Doug Lesmerises discuss how JOK’s smaller size at linebacker fits into the Browns’ defense; how he’ll mix with Malcolm Smith as a coverage linebacker; and how much he should actually be on the field as a rookie.

Then the film shows Owusu-Koramoah breaking up bubble screens, reading quarterbacks and dropping into coverage, disrupting plays and allowing teammates to pursue, and then also what happens when he bites on play-action or has to cover in the slot.

GWTT hit Greg Newsome last week and now it’s time for another draft pick. Thanks as always for listening in the Orange and Brown Talk feed from cleveland.com.
