The esteemed Mr. Adkins gives a minute-by-minute breakdown of all the camp happenings in Berea today, neatly Twitterized for your consumption.

- James Davis not practicing due to having dental work done

- Offensive linemen beating on the blocking sled as practice begins

- Special teams units walking through responsibilities

- Defensive linemen working on hand fighting and clubbing

- D'Qwell Jackson and Eric Barton working with LBs coach individually

- QBs playing long toss

- Rookie Jordan Norwood is the kick returner in walk-through drill

- LBs beating on the sled -- David Veikune and David Bowens hitting it with a purpose

- WRs and DBs working on getting-off-the-line drill

- Norwood uses quickness to get off line -- Mohamed Massaquoi strong hand swipe

- LBs working on live coverage drills against RBs

- Kaluka Maivia and Jackson displaying good footwork and skill

- Barton bites on move by Noah Herron, gets beat down sideline

- Bo Ruud bites on move - Charles Ali beat him down sideline

- Beau Bell hits a ton moving forward but lateral quickness is below average

- DC Rob Ryan working with OLB - pass rushers

- Rookie DB Coye Francies pushing for more reps due to solid camp

- Run responsibility drills on one field -- pass-route drills on another while defensive line and other LBs work on gap drill

- Offensive unit working on walk-through using game responsibilities and technique

- Defensive line running stunts with differing personnel groups vs offensive line

- Browns ask media not to give up specifics on specialty or trick-type plays - but the packages on stunt drill is intriguing

- Defensive line with Kamerion Wimbley getting better of the drill

- Team now working in 11-on-11 drills -- though pace is somewhat slower than game-type conditions

- All the QBs working on reads which leads to plenty of dumps -- plenty of rushing attempts for Jamal Lewis

- Derek Anderson throws nice pass to TE Aaron Walker while rolling to his left

- Defense playing with more energy this afternoon -- passing game struggling

- Brady Quinn, DA, and Brett Ratliff out of sync with receivers

- Defensive backfield playing solid coverage -- QBs holding onto the ball far too long

- Protection breaks down and a sack was likely -- but play continues as Anderson hits a leaping Terry Robiskie in end zone over Hank Poteat

- As soon as I note the QBs are struggling, Quinn hits rookie Massaquoi in end zone for a TD

- A nice breeze blowing through Berea, but it remains hot. Team taking a break

- Prior to break OLB Alex Hall runs a lap for missing assignment on previous play

- Again the team is working on special teams -- kickoff unit. I have never viewed this much ST practice at camp

- With Josh Cribbs on the coverage, unit rookie Norwood is the kick returner

- Rod Hood hauls in INT on deflection with DA at QB

- Braylon Edwards now working with a member of the Browns' staff away from the team

- 1st-round selection center Alex Mack still playing behind veteran Hank Fraley

- With Edwards on the sideline, Josh Cribbs getting reps in his place and performing well

- Anderson hits sliding Norwood, beating blitz

- Richard Bartel leads scoring drive with Mike Furrey making reception

- Session winding down with Phil Dawson kicking field goals

- Edwards jammed a finger - nothing serious reportedly

- Edwards, David Patten, Jerome Harrison, John Madsen, Lance Leggett and Bowens working on side during team drills --- no serious injuries to report

- Edwards initially injured finger in session Tuesday but practiced. Today Edwards worked on bike, some stretching drills and worked with large ball to work hands
