Browns
Browns WR Amari Cooper has been absent during spring practices as he looks for a new contract. Eagles CB Darius Slay feels Cooper is the most underrated receiver in the NFL and thinks Cooper is worth the money heโs asking.
โI really be thinking heโs the most underappreciated receiver in the league,โ Slay said, via the Green Light podcast. โIโm seeing right now that Cleveland donโt want to pay him, they need to pay that man that money.โ
Ravens
Ravens OT Ronnie Stanley said his recent play hasnโt been up to his standard and heโs looking forward to regaining form.
โWe may have been playing well, but it was really killing me on the inside just knowing that I wasnโt playing to my potential,โ Stanley said, via ESPN. โThatโs something that is harder for me to live with. But, moving on from last year, I feel very good about this upcoming season.โ
Ravens HC John Harbaugh confirmed that Stanley is ready to go and fully anticipates on him being 100% this season.
โHeโs ready to go,โ Harbaugh said. โI love Ronnie. I love who he is โ his personality โ but I also love what heโs capable of doing on the football field. If we get Ronnie Stanley out there playing to that level, that would be wonderful.โ
Steelers
Steelers WR coach Zach Azzanni said WR George Pickens has all the tools to be one of the best wide receivers in the league.
โItโs right there for him,โ Azzanni said, via PFT. โHeโs just got to . . . pick it up and take the cheese, do the things we asked him to do and he can do anything he wants. Heโs that talented. I think you guys all know that. Ray Charles can see that. You donโt need to be a coach. So we know thatโs out there for him if he wants it. Now, heโs just got to keep stacking the days and thatโs my job, too.โ
Azzanni doesnโt seem too bothered at the teamโs depth chart behind Pickens.
โI know that a lot [of] people look at the one, the two, the three,โ Azzanni said. โListen, these days we move everyone around and guys get good balls depending on matchups so that number thing is a little overrated to me. But yes, weโre trying to find the best three or four we can put out there for sure.โ
