The Browns have added another veteran, but this one has never played for the Jets. On Tuesday, the team signed wide receiver Mike Furrey. That follows the team's signing of receiver David Patten in March and drafting Brian Robiskie and Moahamed Massaquoi.

Furrey has played football professionally since 2000, catching 198 passes for 2,128 yards. His best season came in 2006 with Detroit when he had 98 catches for 1,086 yards.

In nine games last season, Furrey had only had 18 catches for 181 yards.

The Browns are faced with a dilemma at wide receiver where the availability of Donte' Stallworth is unknown and Braylon Edwards has voiced his displeasure with the team.

Something is likely to happen in the team's receiving corps before the season starts. The Browns currently have Edwards, Stallworth, Furrey, Patten, Massaquoi, Robiskie, Josh Cribbs, Syndric Steptoe, Lance Leggett and Paul Hubbard.

This is a new one. Chuck Ludwig, the Bengals beat writer for the Dayton Daily News, thinks the Browns could release starting left guard Eric Steinbach.

And my sources in Cleveland tell me that Eric Steinbach is in deep trouble. Eric Mangini likes big, bruising maulers on the offensive line.

Steinbach doesn’t fit the mold. He’s more finesse. I look for Steinbach to get released after the 2009 season. If fact, with his fat contract, he’ll be fortunate to make the 53-man roster. Don’t be shocked if he gets terminated before the ‘09 opener.

Fair enough. Ludwig has some other not-so-kind things to say about the Browns, but does predict the team will finish 6-10.

Former Browns head coach Romeo Crennel won't coach in 2009, according to the Boston Globe.

In a story by Mike Reiss, Crennel said he wants to spend 2009 getting healthy following February hip surgery.

By the end of his coaching career in Cleveland, in which he went 24-40, it was easy to dislike Crennel. The Browns were at times very terrible. Make sure to check out that story to understand why, regardless of how poor he did in Cleveland, Crennel remains a likable person.
