    All the minicamps and OTAs are over for the Browns. At no time did Josh Cribbs jump over to the defensive side of the football to play safety or nickel back. It could happen in training camp, but the switch is unlikely. "We've really only worked him on offense to this point," head coach Eric Mangini said. "I wanted to do that to get him the most familiarity with the system. Like all the guys at this point, there are good things and there are things that aren't as good. Some of it is just familiarity - new system, new routes, new expectations in terms of depths and reads, sights and hots, and tons of information. We will keep moving down this path, see how it goes, and at some point, hopefully it builds flexibility into where we will work on defense as well."
