Cleveland Browns 2010 Training Camp Preview
Football Betting Lines
07/23/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) -
REPORT DATE: July 23rd (Rookies), July 30th (Veterans)
SITE: Cleveland Browns Training Facility, Berea, OH
CAMP OBJECTIVES: Eric Mangini's second training camp as head coach of the Browns should go much more smoothly than the first, even if there is still some uncertainty facing this team. Jake Delhomme appears established as the No. 1 quarterback, though the play of both Seneca Wallace and Colt McCoy will merit watching. The wide receiving corps is a major question mark, however. Young wideouts like Mohamed Massaquoi, Brian Robiskie, and Chansi Stuckey need to be consistent to keep Cleveland from making a panic move (T.O.?). The division of the running back reps among Jerome Harrison and rookie Montario Hardesty (Tennessee) will be an intriguing storyline, as it is thought that Hardesty could be the team's back of the future. The defense has been improved on paper, but the new pieces must jell in the preseason. Linebackers Scott Fujita (ex- Saints) and Chris Gocong (ex-Eagles), cornerbacks Joe Haden (1st Round, Florida) and Sheldon Brown (ex-Eagles), and safety T.J. Ward (2nd Round, Oregon) need to generate an impact. Up front, Mangini and defensive coordinator Rob Ryan must locate some options in case Shaun Rogers, who was involved in a handgun incident at the airport in April, is suspended.

Aug 14 - at Green Bay, 8:00 PM Aug 21 - vs. St. Louis, 7:30 PM Aug 28 - at Detroit, 5:30 PM Sep 2 - vs. Chicago, 8:00 PM

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.
Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.
Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.
A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.
Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.
Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.
Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.
And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
