Podcast: Which Browns stood out and who struggled vs the Eagles?

Who helped their stock and who hurt it on Thursday night?

The Cleveland Browns have their third preseason game in the books as they tied the Eagles 18-18 on Thursday night. Wide receiver Austin Watkins Jr continues his great preseason as he made play after play. He showed great body control to adjust to the ball in the air to go along with nice physicality and route running.

Add Cedric Tillman to the mix and the team has some really tough decisions to make at the position. Another young player making a statement is linebacker Mohamoud Diabate who plays with great range and physicality and his athleticism makes for a good coverage linebacker as well.

The struggles of Cade York continue as he isn’t showing any signs that he is figuring something out. He continues to push the ball right and after getting a second chance at a game-winner he way overcorrected missing it wide left.

We go over these players in more detail in this week’s episode which you can watch by clicking here.

PFF’s 10 highest-graded Browns on offense vs. the Eagles

Who shined the most on offense against the Eagles

After several brutal practices with the Eagles in Philadelphia, the Cleveland Browns faced them in their third preseason game on Thursday night. The Austin Watkins Jr. story continued as he made even more impressive plays this week.

He understands how to attack a defense and mixes good size and body control with reliable hands making his case for why he should make the roster. Whether he makes it here or somewhere else Watkins Jr. will be on an active roster this year.

Outside of that, the offensive line depth continued to play at a high level with the two Ohio State rookies, Luke Wypler and Dawand Jones, playing well again. How did the top offensive players grade out in Philadelphia according to those at PFF?

Browns Twitter reacts to Week 2 preseason tie vs. Eagles

How did twitter react to the third preseason game?

Though not many significant starters played for the Cleveland Browns on Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles, there were still plenty of highlights to watch. Wide receiver Austin Watkins Jr. continued his excellent preseason making play after play and forcing the team to possibly make a tough decision come roster cutdowns.

He has nice body control and he understands how to attack a defense and has reliable hands. On the other side, it was undrafted free agent linebacker Mohamoud Diabte who made a ton of plays for Jim Schwartz.

Let’s take a look at how Browns fans reacted on social media to the win over the Eagles Thursday night.

WATCH: Browns LB Mohamoud Diabate forces another turnover vs. Eagles

Another big play from the rookie

The impressive preseason for rookie linebacker Mohamoud Diabate continues as he punches the ball out to force a fumble and turnover for the Cleveland Browns. He started out the night making a massive play in the run game to score a safety and now he gets the ball back for his offense with the fumble forced against the Philadelphia Eagles.

He used the move that was made famous by Charles Tillman with a perfect punch of the football to get it lose. The guy can flat-out play with terrific range to cover a lot of ground on the field in the blink of an eye, he gets closer and closer to earning a roster spot.

WATCH: Another week, another interception for undrafted safety Ronnie Hickman

The Ohio State product continues to make plays

During college, rookie safety Ronnie Hickman had a total of three career interceptions for Ohio State. In the past two preseason games for the Cleveland  Browns Hickman now has three interceptions after another takeaway against the Philadelphia Eagles. After going undrafted this year it was an uphill battle for Hickman to make this roster but he is making a statement in the preseason that he should.

He continues to find a way to be in the right place at the right time and made an impressive scoop to keep the ball from hitting the ground before he could catch it. It’s a battle between Hickman and D’Anthony Bell for the final safety spot and right now Hickman may have the leg up on Bell.
