Browns At Buccaneers: Players To Watch

by Gareth Rees

A few players to keep an eye on during the Buccaneers/Browns matchup this weekend:

Josh Freeman

#5 / Quarterback / Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Height: 6-5

Weight: 248

Born: Jan 13, 1988

College: Kansas State

Will Josh Freeman take the next step and mature into a franchise quarterback? How will his injured thumb affect his passes?

Jake Delhomme

#17 / Quarterback / Cleveland Browns

Height: 6-2

Weight: 215

Born: Jan 10, 1975

College: Louisiana-Lafayette

Jake Delhomme has been the Bucs’ kryptonite over the years with Carolina. He is 5-1 at Raymond James and an incredible 9-2 lifetime against the Buccaneers.

Gerald McCoy

#93 / Defensive Tackle / Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Height: 6-4

Weight: 295

Born: Feb 25, 1988

College: Oklahoma

The No. 3 overall pick in the draft hopes to make a splash immediately. Cleveland’s offensive line may be one of its biggest strengths so expect Gerald McCoy to struggle in his debut.

Jerome Harrison

#35 / Running Back / Cleveland Browns

Height: 5-9

Weight: 205

Born: Feb 26, 1983

College: Washington State

Can the Bucs' weak run defense contain budding star Jerome Harrison?
