Former Browns defensive back Hanford Dixon is impressed with GM Ray Farmer.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Friday's report about a possible suspension for Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon took some of the sting out of the excitement created by Day 1 of the 2014 NFL Draft.

Gordon will be suspended for the 2014 season due to a second failed drug test, according to reports. Gordon led the league with 1,646 receiving yards last season.

Former Browns cornerback Hanford Dixon said he will hold judgement until he receives all of the facts.

"Josh is a great kid, and I'll just wait for the rest of the information on that situation before I comment," said Dixon, who participated in a draft party in Twinsburg on Friday night.

Dixon, however, had plenty to say about the selection of cornerback Justin Gilbert, the Browns No. 8 overall selection.

"I love the cornerback," Dixon said. "You can never have enough of them in the league today. I haven't met him yet, but I understand that he's a great kid and I can't wait to meet him… I'd love to see us play bump-and-run like how me and Frank [Minnifield] used to play."

CLEVELAND, Ohio – Are you pleased with the Cleveland Browns picking linebacker Christian Kirksey of Iowa on Friday in the third round of the NFL Draft?

Vote on how you rate their decision to draft Kirksey with the 71^st overall selection in the poll below.

Do you like the decision to take the 6-foot-2, 235-pounder, or are you concerned that new General Manager Ray Farmer and Co. made the wrong pick or should have addressed a different position?

We asked earlier tonight in a poll on the second round selection of OL Joel Bitonio and it remains relevant – Was it vital the Browns select a wide receiver, especially after news broke just before the picks began that WR Josh Gordon faces a possible suspension due to another failed drug test?

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Christian Kirksey, an outside linebacker from Iowa was taken 71st tonight by the Cleveland Browns in the 2014 NFL draft.

Kirksey was the fourth player selected in the 2014 NFL Draft for the Browns. On Thursday night, the Browns selected cornerback Justin Gilbert and quarterback Johnny Manziel. With their first pick on Friday, the Browns selected offensive lineman Joel Bitonio.

Scouts say Kirksey is a fast linebacker who has the ability to cover running backs in the flat.

The 6-foot-2, 233-pound linebacker ran a 4.59 in the 40-yard dash, but will need to get stronger to able to handle offensive lineman getting to the second level.

From NFLDraftScout.com:

Listed at 6-foot-2 and 233 pounds, he doesn't appear that big on the football field, but he plays bigger than he looks with the play speed and intensity needed for the position. Kirksey uses his eyes well to diagnose with an accurate first step and the range to make plays at all levels of the field. He is just one-third of a talented trio of Iowa linebackers, and while James Morris and Anthony Hitchens received most of the headlines, Kirksey is a prospect worth keep track of as he makes the jump to the NFL.

While Kirksey has been focusing on the NFL draft, he has remained focused on getting a degree in sports marketing.

"I want to be close to something I love, and that's football and that's sports in general," Kirksey said. "So why not have a major where you can actually visualize and see that you love, and also have a business side of it. I may want to start my own business with a sporting good store or something like that."

Kirksey proves to be natural leader: Kirksey sets a tone for the Hawkeyes on game day:

In football, you have to have players that are ready to step up and lead the team to victory. Former Iowa teammate James Morris said Kirksey has all the qualities of a great leader.

“He sets the right tone,’’ Morris said. “When it is time to get ready to play, he’s a different player. He brings a lot of energy and passion to the field and he does a great job of communicating that to everyone, putting that energy into words that leaves everyone ready to play.’’

Browns receiver Nate Burleson suffered a broken arm in minicamp and should be ready for training camp, ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported.

BEREA, Ohio -- Hours after news broke that receiver Josh Gordon is facing banishment from the league for at least a year, word came down that Browns receiver Nate Burleson underwent minor surgery to fix a plate in his left arm and will be out until the start of training camp.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen first reported that Burleson injured the arm.

It's the same one he broke in two places last September in a one-car accident when he tried to save a pizza from falling off the front passenger seat.

Burleson's agent, Ken Sarnoff, confirmed the surgery in a tweet.

"For the record, Nate Burleson hurt his arm in OTAs,'' Sarnoff tweeted. "He had very minor surgery. He will be 100% for day one of camp. Again, 100% for camp!''

It was another blow for a receiving corps rocked by the news of Gordon's failed drug test, which was also reported by ESPN.

Burleson missed the final day of voluntary minicamp last month, but coach Mike Pettine said he was excused and "he's in good standing with us.'' Instead, he was actually undergoing the surgery that day.

Pettine and general manager Ray Farmer declined to confirm or deny Friday that Burleson suffered the injury, saying they're not required to report injuries in the offseason. Farmer, who also wouldn't comment on Gordon's failed drug test per league rules, said he still feels good about his wide receiver depth.

The club drafted three players Friday, but no receivers. In the second round, they drafted offensive tackle Joel Bitonio from Nevada, passing on receivers Marqise Lee of USC, Jordan Matthews of Vandebilt and Paul Richardson of Colorado.

After undergoing surgery on the arm last season, Burleson, 32, missed the first half of the season, but returned for the final eight games, catching 39 passes for 461 yards and a touchdown. The Lions cut him in February in a move that enabled them to save $5.5 million on their salary cap.

Burleson, who spent the past four seasons in Detroit, might be counted on heavily this season if Gordon is banned from the league. The Browns also signed free agent receiver Andrew Hawkins, formerly of the Bengals.

The Browns traded up to the 30th spot in the third round, dealing with San Franciso, and took the record-setting RB from Towson.

BEREA, Ohio – The Browns swung a trade with the San Francisco 49ers on Friday night to select small-school running back Terrance West.

They grabbed the thick-bodied halfback with the 94th overall pick in the third round of the 2014 NFL Draft. The Browns sent a fourth-rounder (106th overall) and sixth rounder (180th overall) to the Niners for the opportunity to select West.

The Baltimore native rushed for 2,509 yards and 41 touchdowns last season on 413 carries. He finished his career with 4,849 yards and 84 TDs.

Here is a scouting report on West from The Associated Press:

Casual football fans may not recognize the name, but West isn't likely to stay under the radar much longer. After setting FCS records with 2,509 rushing yards and 41 touchdowns in his junior season at Towson, West decided to forego his final year of eligibility and enter the draft. The 2013 Colonial Athletic Association offensive player of the year totaled 86 touchdowns during his three seasons with the Tigers, finishing three shy of the FCS record set by former Pro Bowler Brian Westbrook. While the competition figures to get a whole lot stiffer, many believe West has the skill set to be a force at the next level. A powerful yet patient downhill runner, West is extremely explosive out of the backfield and has always shown a knack for picking up tough yards. He has great vision and usually makes good decisions when hitting the hole.

West, who stays low to the ground, is hard to bring down between the tackles and always keeps his legs moving forward. He may not be as fast as some of the running backs in his class, but that shouldn't cause teams to shy away. He ran a 4.54-second 40-yard dash at the NFL combine, finishing with the 14th-best time at his position. He only completed 16 bench press reps, however, and his 33 1/2-inch vertical jump wasn't overly impressive. West projects as a third-round pick, though it wouldn't be surprising to see him go earlier.

See news, videos and photos of Terrance West, the Cleveland Browns' No. 94 overall draft pick.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Terrance West, a running back from Towson was taken 94th by the Cleveland Browns in the 2014 NFL draft.

West was the fifth player selected by the Browns in the draft, and the third of the night for the Browns. Cornerback Justin Gilbert and quarterback Johnny Manziel in the first round. In the second round, Cleveland selected Joel Bitonio and then selected Christian Kirksey in the third round.

Scouts say West is a running back who has the ability to wear a defense out with his running ability.

The 5-foot-9, 225 pound running back ran a 4.50 in the 40-yard dash, but needs to focus on keeping his pad level lower.

From NFLDraftScout.com:

West covered a lot of rough road to overcome his tough home neighborhood in Baltimore. That included missing a couple of years of football, including one when he sold shoes. Walked on at Towson and last season led team to an FCS national championship game against North Dakota State. West pounded the ball relentlessly between the tackles to lead all FCS players with 2,519 yards rushing and 41 touchdowns last season. Has a son, Brendan. Frankly: Give him a chance and West will give you his best and hopefully he has enough tread left to crank out a few more miles after carrying 780 times the last three years.

A pick-by-pick list of players selected in the second and third rounds of the 2014 NFL Draft.

After an eventful opening round Thursday, the 2014 NFL Draft continued Friday night at Radio City Music Hall in New York with Rounds 2 and 3. 

Round 2

The Cleveland Browns have four selections remaining in the 2014 NFL Draft.

CLEVELAND, Ohio --The Cleveland Browns have two (2) selections remaining in the 2014 NFL Draft.

In the fourth round, the Browns own the 27th pick (127th). The Browns traded a fourth-round (106th pick) and sixth round-pick (180th) to acquire Towson running back Terrance West with the 94th pick.

In round seven, Cleveland picks third (218th).

In Thursday's first round, the Browns selected Oklahoma State CB Justin Gilbert at No. 8 after trading the No. 4 pick to Buffalo. The Browns later traded up from the No. 26 pick to select Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel.

The Big Ten had just seven players taken through the first three rounds a year ago, compared to 16 now. Ohio State leads the Big Ten so far with four picks, while Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa and Nebraska each have two.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Big Ten was absent for much of the NFL Draft last year. This year, the conference had more going on through the first three rounds.

Through two days and three rounds of the draft, 16 Big Ten players have been taken. That's the league's best haul through three rounds since 2007. Here's the number of Big Ten players taken in the top three rounds back to 2004:

2014: 16

2013: 7

2012: 14

2011: 12

2010: 13

2009: 15

2008: 13

2007: 16

2006: 15

2005: 14

2004: 18

Prior to the 2012 draft, the Big Ten was at 11 teams, and the draft haul didn't include Nebraska. So it should be a little higher now. (Note that the 16 picks don't include Maryland and Rutgers players, since they never played in the Big Ten. One Maryland player has been taken so far.)

But this bounce back shows that last year's down class, which included just one first-round pick when Wisconsin center Travis Frederick went No. 31 to Dallas, was more of a blip than a trend.

There were four Big Ten players drafted in the first round Thursday and 12 more were added to the list Friday. Ohio State had four players drafted, which is second among all schools only to Notre Dame and LSU, which each had five players picked.

Here are the 16 Big Ten picks:

First round

No. 11, Taylor Lewan, Michigan OL, Tennessee

No. 15, Ryan Shazier, Ohio State LB, Pittsburgh

No. 24, Darqueze Dennard, Michigan State CB, Cincinnati

No. 31, Bradley Roby, Ohio State CB, Denver

Second round

No. 37, Ra'Shede Hageman, Minnesota DL, Atlanta

No. 56, Cody Latimer, Indiana WR, Denver

No. 57, Carlos Hyde, Ohio State RB, San Francisco

No. 58, Stanley Jean-Baptiste, Nebraska CB, New Orleans

No. 59, Jack Mewhort, Ohio State OL, Indianapolis

No. 61, Allen Robinson, Penn State WR, Jacksonville

Third round

No. 65, C.J. Fiedorowicz, Iowa TE, Houston

No. 68, Dez Southward, Wisconsin S, Atlanta

No. 71, Christian Kirksey, Iowa LB, Browns

No. 77, Chris Borland, Wisconsin LB, San Francisco

No. 78, Spencer Long, Nebraska OL, Washington

No. 95, Michael Schofield, Michigan OL, Denver

CLEVELAND, Ohio – It's time to grade how the
Cleveland Browns execs did on the second day of the NFL Draft. Share your grade
in the poll below and back it up in the comments.

The Browns entered Friday night with one pick in the second round – No. 35 overall – and one pick in the third round (71^st). They came away with three new players, dealing a trade for the second straight day.

Shortly after news broke of Browns WR Josh Gordon facing a possible yearlong suspension by the NFL because of another failed drug test, the team drafted Nevada OL Joel Bitonio with the third pick in the second round. They followed by taking Iowa LB Christian Kirksey with the seventh pick in the third round.

Then first-year General Manager Ray Farmer struck another trade, acquiring the 94th overall pick from the San Francisco 49ers. He used it to draft small-school running back Terrance West of Towson. In turn, the Browns gave up a fourth-rounder (106th overall) and sixth-rounder (180th overall) to the Niners.

Do you support today's moves or are you concerned about the decisions and believe they missed out on better players or more pressing needs?

Here are the winners and losers from the second and third rounds of the 2014 NFL Draft.

Position runs, the long-awaited arrival of the draft's first running back selection, teams that did very well for themselves and others that did not were among the highlights of the second and third rounds of the 2014 NFL Draft. Here are some of the winners and losers from Friday night:

Winners

Josh McCown
The Tampa Bay quarterback has yet to throw a pass for his new team. Yet by 8 p.m. Eastern on Friday he likely could not believe his good fortune. Already with Vincent Jackson onboard and having selected Mike Evans with the seventh overall pick Thursday, Buccaneers GM Jason Licht took tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins out of the University of Washington with the sixth pick in the second round (No. 38 overall) Friday. Between Jackson and Evans, both of whom are 6-foot-5, and the 6-6 Seferian-Jenkins, McCown just needs to work on his alley-oop.

Ra'Shede Hageman
The Falcons had so many needs that selecting a player who can lend some versatility is pretty critical. They got their guy in Ra'Shede Hageman, who could have gone in the first round. Atlanta was next to last in run defense last season (136 yards per game), so having a big tackle (6-foot-6, 310) can help remedy that situation. Given his strength and wingspan, Hageman could also be an end. On top of what he can do on the football field, he is also a survivor of sorts -- shuttling between foster care homes as a youth before being adopted -- reminiscent of Michael Oher. A real winner.

Chad Pennington
The only cheer larger than the one the former Jets quarterback received when he strolled to the podium was the one that his announcement of the team's pick elicited. Many had tight end Jace Amaro going late in the first round, but Jets fans rejoiced when it was learned he was coming to Broadway -- or at least East Rutherford -- with the 49th pick. The 6-foot-5, 260-pound Amaro caught 106 passes for Texas Tech last season and should be a gem in the Jets' West Coast offense.

Losers

Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals have had their share of off-field issues in recent years, including a good number of arrests. So what did they do? With their second-round choice (No. 55) in this draft they selected LSU's Jeremy Hill. Issues? The running back has his share with multiple arrests. Let's hope the kid grows up and becomes a productive pro rather than follow in the footsteps of new teammate Pacman Jones.

Running Backs
A record at this position was set. A record for futility, that is. As such, if nothing else, Bishop Sankey is an answer to a piece of trivia after establishing a new mark for the latest that the first running back off the board has ever been chosen (No. 54 overall). As for the player, Sankey had an award-winning career with the Washington Huskies that included a single-season school mark 1,870 yards rushing last season. Good grab for the Titans, but a tough draft for the position.

National reaction to Friday's more notable NFL draft selections and happenings.

One hundred draft picks are in the books through three rounds of the 2014 NFL Draft. The Cleveland Browns made headlines for the second day in a row, and running backs waited even longer to hear their names called on Day 2 than most expected.

"I think it's a little bit," Sankey said when asked if the value of the position has declined. "Although I am biased, I think running backs can be valuable. I just have to focus on working and becoming the most valuable player. I think something I can do to change that is show that I'm an all-around player. I can contribute in more ways than one, and I can be dangerous."

The running back position isn't unimportant in the NFL, it's just a commodity nobody wants to invest in. Teams are using more running back committees. The short average career of a running back means no team wants to use a first-round pick on one for three or four quality years. They'd rather wait and get an Alfred Morris (sixth round, Washington, 2012) or Zac Stacy (fifth round, St. Louis, 2013) at a cheap price. That's why running backs like Ben Tate and Maurice Jones-Drew had a tough time getting signed this offseason as free agents. Teams still run the ball (although less often), but they're not going to pay a hefty price for running backs.

Because Gordon is already believed to be in stage three of the NFL's substance abuse policy, as reported last June by cleveland.com, he faces banishment from the NFL for a minimum of one calendar year. After that, he'd have to apply for re-instatement with Commissioner Roger Goodell. Gordon was suspended for the first two games of last season and docked two other game checks for failing a drug test.

On Friday morning, it was clear the Browns were better than last season. On Friday evening, it's not clear at all.

And it's hard not to wonder what this will mean for Manziel's rookie season. Will he be forced to freelance more without Gordon if he is indeed punished? Will he get frustrated more quickly under the direction of defensive-minded first-year head coach Mike Pettine? Even the most talented quarterbacks can't get too far without talented receivers, and now Manziel could have one less of those to help. Keep in mind how close he got at Texas A&M with Mike Evans, both on and off the field. Manziel might not have a go-to like that this fall.

• Patriots second-round draft pick Jimmy Garoppolo knows he won't see much of the field as long as Tom Brady is in town and healthy. That's not bothering the former Eastern Illinois star, considering the success of another player whose journey already features many similarities to Garoppolo's. (via MassLive.com)

The Indians' rotation has posted seven straight quality starts, the most recent by Corey Kluber against Tampa Bay on Friday.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Indians played the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday. Here is a capsule look from The Plain Dealer reporter Dennis Manoloff:

Game: 36

Opponent: Rays.

Location: Tropicana Field, St. Petersburg, Fla.

Time of day: Night.

Time elapsed: 4 hours, 10 minutes.

Result: Indians 6, Rays 3.

Records: Indians 17-19, Rays 15-21.

Heating up: The Indians have won a season-high four in a row.

Recalibrating the compass: The Tribe snapped a seven-game road losing streak. It hadn't won on the road since April 16 against Detroit.

Chipping away: The Indians have gained two games on the Detroit Tigers in the last two days. The Tigers, leaders of the AL Central, lost to the Twins in Comerica Park on Friday and are 20-11, 5 1/2 ahead of third-place Cleveland.

Different direction: The Rays, who beat the Indians in a wild-card game last October in Cleveland, have lost four in a row. They have dropped their past six at Tropicana Field.

Climate control: The Indians are 1-0 indoors.

Finding a way: The Tribe prevailed despite going 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position, stranding 10 and striking out 13 times.

Closer issues: The Indians can feel good about the victory, no question, but it came with anxious moments. John Axford, having entered the ninth inning with a 6-2 lead, struck out the first two. Then the Rays went double, walk, double, walk -- and Axford was gone in favor of Cody Allen. James Loney popped a full-count fastball to right on the ninth pitch of the at-bat.

Axford, the Tribe's closer, pitched in a non-save situation. He has been struggling enough that manager Terry Francona might need to reconfigure the back end of the bullpen, at least for the short term.

Kluber chronicles: Allen saved the game for right-hander Corey Kluber, who allowed two runs on nine hits in 6 2/3 innings. Kluber walked none and struck out nine.

In Kluber's previous start, May 4 against the White Sox, he allowed one run and struck out 13 in eight innings. He was in line for the victory until Axford gave up a three-run homer in the ninth and the Tribe lost, 4-3.

Kluber (3-3, 3.48 ERA) has struck out 38 in 28 1/3 innings of his past four starts (2-1). As the strikeouts indicate, his stuff has been filthy. He primarily has relied on a low-to-mid-90s fastball with movement, a diving slurve and darting cutter.

Don't be fooled by Tampa Bay's hit total, or the 58 allowed by Kluber in 51 2/3 innings this season. Yes, Kluber has missed with his share of pitches, but he continues to be dinked and dunked by the opposition.

Strong up front: The Tribe's rotation has posted seven consecutive quality starts. Justin Masterson and Kluber own two and Zach McAllister, Danny Salazar and Josh Tomlin own one.

Money time: Kluber effectively won the game in the sixth. The Rays led, 2-1, and opened with singles by Loney and Evan Longoria, the latter pushing Loney to second.

Kluber struck out the next three: righty Wil Myers (three pitches), lefty Matt Joyce (four) and righty Brandon Guyer (seven). Myers swung through a slurve away, Joyce swung through a slurve over the plate and Guyer stared at a full-count heater at the knees. Guyer tried to sell ball four, but umpire Mark Wegner had none of it.

Innings such as these are why strikeout stuff is so important, and why Kluber has a chance to develop into a rotation horse.

Under control: Kluber has walked 12 this season. In his past 104 innings dating to July 20, 2013, he has walked 23.

Cab ride: Shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera led off the sixth with a homer to pull the Indians within 2-1. Cabrera ripped a 1-2 fastball from righty Brad Boxberger into the right-field seats. Catcher Ryan Hanigan wanted the pitch off the plate inside, but it stayed over the middle at the knees.

Boxberger had taken over for dominant righty Jake Odorizzi to begin the inning. The previous night against Baltimore, Boxberger relieved David Price with the bases loaded and none out in the sixth. He struck out the side on nine pitches.

Cabrera went 3-for-4 with the homer and RBI, one walk and two runs.

Cabrera has not done much in the past three games...other than go 9-for-14 with two homers, three doubles and four RBI. The outburst has raised his average from .205 to .254.

Cabrera is raking from the left side, which had been a huge problem. As the hits keep coming, the smiles have returned. Cabrera is having fun again.

Paging Dr. Smooth: Indians left fielder Michael Brantley led off the seventh with a homer to tie the score, 2-2. He ripped a 1-0 fastball from righty Joel Peralta into the right-field seats.

The homer extended Brantley's hitting streak to nine games. He finished 1-for-5, putting the streak's totals at 14-for-38 with three homers, four doubles, 11 RBI and seven runs.

Overall, Brantley is hitting .286 with seven homers and 30 RBI. Last season, Brantley had 10 homers and 73 RBI in 151 games. He did not hit his seventh homer until July 7 and notch his 30th RBI until June 18.

Angry slugger: Upon returning to the dugout after the homer, Brantley scowled and talked to himself. He rammed his helmet into the rack multiple times and appeared to break it. He likely still was grinding about the results of his previous at-bats (0-for-3, including two strikeouts with runners in scoring position).

Don't forget about me: Indians substitute second baseman Mike Aviles has become MLB's most dangerous No. 9 hitter.

Aviles smacked a two-out, three-run homer off righty Brandon Gomes in the seventh. It capped a five-run seventh that gave the Indians the 6-2 advantage.

In a 2-2 count against Gomes, Aviles used his trademark punch-stroke to put the barrel on a low off-speed pitch and line it over the left-field wall. On the previous pitch, he was fooled by an off-speed pitch and swung and missed.

Aviles is fun to watch for numerous reasons, among them: his two-strike approach. It might not produce aesthetically pleasing swings, but it has rescued numerous at-bats.

Aviles finished 1-for-3. In his last four games, he is 9-for-14 with the homer and three doubles. Overall, he is at .329 with an .831 OPS in 24 games.

Nothing doing: Odorizzi allowed five hits, walked two and struck out a career-high 11 in five shutout innings. He exited because of pitch count (101).

It is one thing to be overwhelmed by righties along the lines of Max Scherzer or Justin Verlander or Jose Fernandez. It is quite another to have it happen against Odorizzi.

Odorizzi, 24, might be good someday, but at this point in his career, he has not scared anybody. He entered Friday at 1-5 with one save and a 5.29 ERA in 15 career games (12 starts). In six starts this season, Odorizzi was 1-3 with a 6.83 ERA. In 27 2/3 innings, he had given up 36 hits -- including four homers -- walked 14 and struck out 26.

Yet the Indians were unable to score against him.

And it is not as if Odorizzi is a flame-thrower who has been unable to harness his electric stuff. His repertoire of fastball/curve/slider/changeup doesn't include any wipeout pitches. Hitters get a good look out of the hand at the fastball, which barely breaks 90 mph.

Whiff kings: The Tribe struck out three times in the first inning and twice in the second, third, fourth and fifth. Odorizzi didn't need help from Wegner; nine of the strikeouts were swinging.

With runners in scoring position against Odorizzi, the Indians were 0-for-8 with seven strikeouts.

The Indians were 0-for-10 with RISP overall until Yan Gomes delivered an RBI single to right for a 3-2 lead in the seventh.

Gift opportunity squandered: The Indians had runners on first and second with one out in the first but failed to score. After Nick Swisher hit a one-out single through the shift, Brantley grounded to short. What should have been a routine double play evaporated when an odd hop ate up Yunel Escobar for an error.

Carlos Santana, who entered with one hit in his last 24 at-bats, worked the count full. Odorizzi threw a 91-mph fastball on the outer half at the thighs -- a pitch that a cleanup hitter must handle, especially with runners on. Santana swung and missed.

David Murphy followed with a swinging strikeout on a changeup down and away.

Notable: Escobar exited in the top of the third because of a right-thumb contusion caused by the odd hop.

No DP, then DP: The Indians narrowly missed turning a conventional double play in the Rays first. Later in the inning, they went the unconventional route.

After David DeJesus led off with a single, Ben Zobrist grounded to second baseman Aviles. Shortstop Cabrera's relay initially was deemed good enough for the 4-6-3, but a Tampa Bay replay challenge overturned the call.

Loney, in a full count, took a fastball down the middle for strike three as Zobrist sprinted for second. Catcher Gomes easily zapped Zobrist.

More struggles: In the Tribe second, Cabrera walked on four pitches. He didn't move because Gomes flied to center and Lonnie Chisenhall and Aviles struck out.

The Indians went 1-for-7 with a walk the first time through the order. Odorizzi entered the game having held the opposition to a .140 average the first time through.

Odorizzi was supposed to be vulnerable the second (.465) and third (.500) times through. But the Indians never capitalized.

Golden opportunity wasted: Bourn led off the third with a triple but didn't move because Swisher and Brantley struck out and Santana popped out.

Santana finished 0-for-3 and is hitting .139. But he walked twice, scored once and saw a game-high 31 pitches. He owns a .305 on-base percentage and .270 slugging percentage.

Homers by Michael Brantley and Mike Aviles key five-run seventh inning; Corey Kluber strikes out nine and holds Rays to two runs in 6 2/3 innings for the win.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The Indians, after going 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position and stranding 10 runners in six innings, scored five runs in the seventh Friday night to make a winner out of Corey Kluber.

Michael Brantley and Mike Aviles homered in the decisive seventh as the Indians beat Tampa Bay, 6-3, at Tropicana Field for their season-high fourth straight victory. The Indians have won six of their last eight games.

Right-hander Jake Odorizzi, who came into the game with a 6.38 ERA, dazzled the Indians for five scoreless innings. Not only did he pitch into and out of trouble, but he struck out a career-high 11.

Meanwhile the Rays picked away at Kluber (3-3, 3.48) to take a 2-0 lead through the fifth. As soon as Odorizzi left after 101 pitches, the Indians went to work.

"By striking out as much as we did, we were able to run up his pitch and get him out of there kind of quick," said Aviles.

Yes, he was kidding -- sort of.

"In all honesty, their starting pitcher definitely had our number," said Aviles, hitting .329 overall. "It was unfortunate for them that he had to come out early. It was fortunate for us because we were able to get into their bullpen, which should help us later in the series."

Asdrubal Cabrera, coming off a four-hit game Thursday, opened the sixth with a homer off Brad Boxberger. It was Cabrera's second homer in as many games and cut Tampa Bay's lead in half, 2-1.

Once again, however, the Tribe's failure to deliver in the clutch took the steam out of the inning. After Yan Gomes followed Cabrera with a single, Boxberger hit Lonnie Chisenhall with a pitch. Aviles advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt, but lefty Jake McGee relieved and struck out Michael Bourn and retired Nick Swisher on a liner to left.

The Indians finally turned serious in the seventh when they took a 6-2 lead.

Brantley opened the inning with a homer to right center off Joel Peralta to tie the score. It was Brantley's seventh homer of the season and second in as many days. Brantley ended last season with 10 homers.

After Carlos Santana walked, David Murphy flied out to right field, but Cabrera kept the line moving with a single through the middle to beat a Tampa Bay shift. It was Cabrera's third hit of the game and ninth in the last three games.

"Cabrera should feel good about himself," said manager Terry Francona. "He can relax a little because he's certainly worked hard enough to get where he is."

Brandon Gomes relieved to face Yan Gomes. Yan Gomes singled to left to score Santana for the Tribe's first lead of the game.

After a passed ball by catcher Ryan Hanigan put Cabrera on third and Gomes on second, Aviles lined a 2-2 pitch into the left field seats for a 6-2 lead. It was Aviles' second homer of the season and gave him four hits in the last two games.

Aviles has filled in nicely for All-Star second baseman Jason Kipnis, who went on the DL with a right oblique injury on May 2.

After the game Kipnis Twieeted that when he's activated, he'll return as a pinch-hitter. Said Aviles, "He's not coming back. I just texted him and said, "Take, you time."  

Kluber allowed two runs on nine hits in 6 2/3 innings.  He struck out nine and didn't walk a batter in 99 pitches. In his last two games, Kluber is 1-0 with a 2.31 ERA and 22 strikeouts, two walks and three earned runs in 14 2/3 innings.

"Kluber is pretty much an ace," said Aviles. "He has ace-type stuff. He has four plus pitches You saw last year. You see it this year.

"When you have a player on the mound like him, the least you can do is reward him. There are times when we don't score ehough runs for him. But tonight we did and held onto it for him."
 
The Tribe's rotation over the last 16 games has a 3.07 ERA (35 earned runs in 102 2/3 innings).

David DeJesus opened the fourth with a double and came around to score on a ground ball and sacrfice fly by James Loney.

The Rays, who have lost four straight, made it 2-0 in the fifth. Matt Joyce opened with a single, but Kluber struck out Brandon Guyer. Logan Forsythe moved Joyce to third with a single to center, but Kluber struck out Hanigan.

Kluber, however, couldn't get the third out before DeJesus doubled to left for a 2-0 lead.

Closer John Axford, trying to iron out some control issues, entered the ninth with a 6-2 lead. He struck out the first two batters, but then lost the strike zone. Forsythe doubled, Hanigan walked and DeJesus doubled to right to make it 6-3.

Axford loaded the bases by walking Ben Zobrist to bring Cody Allen into the game. Allen, facing Loney, missed on his first two pitches but came back to retire him on a fly ball to right after a long at bat for his first save of the season.

After the game Francona was asked if he was contemplating a change at closer.

"I'm not going to do anything 10 minutes after a game," said Francona. "And I'm not going to do it through a reporter. Whatever things need to be worked out you usually do it through the player."

The game lasted 4 hours and 10 minutes.

The season is in its second month and Indians' cleanup hitter Carlos Santana entered Saturday's game against Tampa Bay with only 17 hits.

Clubhouse confidential: Carlos Santana looks lost at the plate -- again.

Lost, however, doesn’t quite cover it. Maybe defenseless is a better word. The harder he swings, the slower his bat looks.

Manager Terry Francona, however, has not lost patience with him.

“We’ll have a lot of patience with him,” said Francona. “He’s our cleanup hitter. We’re not going to send him to Triple-A. He’s arguable our best hitter, our most productive hitter.

“We need to be patience because when he gets hot, he’ll get very hot. If you’re not patient, you miss out on that.”

Santana went into Saturday’s game hitting .139 (17-for-122) with four homers and 11 RBI. He started the season in a 3-for-58 skid before going 6-for-15 with three homers and eight RBI from April 28 through May 2. Since that brief hot streak, he’s 1-for-25.

“He’s had a period or two like this in his career,” said Francona. “It happens to everybody. When it comes at the start of the season, it’s a little more glaring.”

Stat of the day: Asdrubal Cabrera raised his batting average from .205 to .254 by going 9-for-13 with five runs, three doubles, two homers and four RBI in a three-game period from Wednesday through Friday.

The last Indians’ shortstop to have nine hits, including five extra base hits, in a three-game period was Hall of Famer Lou Boudreau in 1948. (Elias).

Browns Ray Farmer acknowledged that fans are upset about the ESPN report of Josh Gordon facing a year-long ban for failing a drug test. Watch video

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Browns general manager Ray Farmer acknowledged the fans' frustration over the news that Josh Gordon is facing a possible year-long ban from the league for failing a drug test, and assured them the team will fight to win without him if it happens.

ESPN reported Friday that Gordon tested positive for marijuana and has been informed he'll miss at least 16 games. He has the right to appeal and is expected to do so.

"I would say that frustration is a natural part of it,'' Farmer said. "I think that's what was felt and heard when that announcement was made, so I don't fault the fans for their reaction. I don't fault anyone for being disappointed. To that end, it's our job to make those decisions less painful. And in time, it's no different than if a player was going out during the offseason and broke an ankle or tore an ACL playing pickup hoops or doing something different. "We have to build a football team that can win regardless of who is missing. I think that's the charge that we have. That's my job, that's coach Pettine's job is to prepare this football team to win games regardless of who's missing."

Farmer is prohibited by league rules from directly confirming the report is true, but indicated the team is making contingency plans. He's also declined to comment on the report by agent Ken Sarnoff that receiver Nate Burleson underwent arm surgery two weeks ago to repair a plate in left arm he broke in two places last September.

"I know it's frustrating for a lot of people not to have information and it seems like we're somehow avoiding the topic,'' he said. "But the reality is that, to some degree, my hands are tied for what I can say (about Gordon). So there is really nothing I can contribute to this conversation other than I have no comment or I will add clarity when there is clarity."

A league source told cleveland.com on Friday that the several members of the Browns organization have known about Gordon's possible suspension for at least a week, well in advance of Thursday night's first round of the draft.

Regardless, the Browns opted to pass on former Clemson star wide receiver Sammy Watkins at No. 4 and trade out of the pick. They moved down five spots to No. 9 with the Bills, who jumped up and grabbed Watkins. The Browns -- who picked up a first- and fourth-rounder in 2015 from the Bills -- then moved back up a notch to No. 8 and landed cornerback Oklahoma State cornerback Justin Gilbert.

Immediately thereafter, the Browns went to work on moving back up from No. 26 to draft one of "a bundle of players'' that included quarterback Johnny Manziel. Ultimately, they climbed up to No. 22 to land Johnny Football. The city lit up and phones rang off the hook in Berea for season tickets -- until the Gordon story broke and killed the Johnny euphoria. 

As the draft wore on, fans grew increasingly frustrated as Farmer passed on receiver after receiver from a class widely regarded as the deepest at that position in years. When he came out Friday night and drafted offensive tackle Joel Bitonio with the No. 35 pick instead of a receiver such as Marqise Lee, social media and talk radio were crackling with criticism.

Farmer watched a total of 12 receivers fly off the board in the first two rounds, including Vanderbilt's Jordan Matthews, Colorado's Paul Richardson and Indiana's Cody Lattimer. All told, 33 receivers were drafted, but none by the Browns.

"I would tell the fans that are in panic mode because we didn't draft a wide receiver is that patience really tells the tale,'' he said. "There are plenty of opportunities for us to address what everyone would believe is a need but in our opinion, there is plenty of opportunity to add players, to change the roster and to really make a difference.''

Farmer then turned the tables and asked reporters a question.

"How many receivers that were with the Seattle Seahawks during the regular season last year and through the beginning of the playoffs, were drafted players?'' he said. "The vast majority of those guys were not drafted, so there's definitely an opportunity to play with and identify talented players that can help your football team.''

By the end of the evening, the Browns had reportedly signed several undrafted rookie receivers, including Florida State's Kenny Shaw, Ball State's Willie Snead and San Jose State's Chandler Jones.

"When you look at the number of receivers that were drafted and when they were drafted, we made the decisions that we made because we really valued the players that we got at a certain point,'' he said. "We weren't in position to take the top-rated (receivers) on our board. Those guys had already been drafted.''

Farmer assured fans -- who watched Gordon tear up the league to the tune of an NFL-high 1,646 yards last season -- that the receiving corps will be in good shape by opening day.

“I’m not concerned with the depth at wide receiver because we play games in September,'' he said. "There’s still plenty of opportunity for us to acquire players, whether it’s (through) trades, draft someone, whether it’s players who are cut. There’s always opportunities to acquire players.”

Cleveland Gladiators remain undefeated at 7-0 with last-second victory over the Los Angeles KISS.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Gladiators came off their Arena League bye week with an apparent lack of focus against the Los Angeles KISS that led to narrow 45-42 victory Saturday night in Quicken Loans Arena.

It took a 17-yard field goal from Aaron Pettrey with 1.5 seconds to play for Cleveland to pull out the victory.

"I felt like a golfer who scrambled all day but still shot even par,'' Pettrey said afterward, noting an earlier 34-yard field goal miss.

"I still made the kick that counted."

Offense, defense and special teams all played a hand in keeping this one close against the lowly KISS (2-6), but Cleveland stayed undefeated (7-0).

Three Gladiator special teams miscues: allowing a kickoff return to their own four and losing a fumbled kickoff return led to LA scores, plus the Pettrey miss all played a role.

Two Shane Austin interceptions: both led to touchdowns, the second tied the score, 42-42, in the fourth quarter. This after entering the game with just two picks on the season.

Defense wilts: Leading, 42-28, early in the fourth quarter Cleveland had LA looking at a fourth-and-6, and a chance to take a three-possession lead if the Gladiators could hold. But the defense jumped offsides giving LA a critical first down that led to a TD.

Then, late in the fourth quarter, with the game tied, 42-42, Cleveland's defense allowed a fourth-and-13 completion for a first down right at the 1:00 mark left in the game.

"We gave up an easy touchdown right before the end of the first half,'' head coach Steve Thonn said of Cleveland's struggles. Then we had that interception (Austin's first of the game) to start the second half. That made it hard to get momentum."

'Mo' belonged to the KISS as they continued to take advantage of Cleveland mistakes until the very end.

"We were struggling so bad in the fourth quarter,'' Thonn said. "We had lost the momentum."

But with 40.6 seconds left, Cleveland's defense finally held on downs, giving Austin a chance to win the game in regulation. He marched the team down to the one and failed on several run attempts to score, leaving the final chore to Pettrey.

Quarterbacks Mariota, Winston, Petty and Hundley could be early selections in the 2015 NFL Draft.

The 2014 NFL Draft is over and now it is time to take an early look at the top talent that could be available in next year's draft.

The quarterback class could be stronger at the top, offensive line should be solid, defensive line should be better along with the talent at cornerback. NFL teams looking to draft receivers or inside linebackers, however, may be underwhelmed in 2015.

Here's a look at 10 players who could hear their name announced on the first night of next year's draft:

1. MARCUS MARIOTA, QB, OREGON

A dynamic playmaker with his arm and his legs, it was surprising when Mariota (6-foot-4, 210 pounds) announced he would return to Oregon for the 2014 season. He likely would have been the top quarterback in the 2014 draft had he left Eugene.

2. BRETT HUNDLEY, QB, UCLA

Hundley is not the passer that Mariota is, yet. But with former NFL head coach Jim Mora Jr. running the Bruins, Hundley is getting a good pro education. He is also sturdier (6-3, 225) than Mariota, making him the the only quarterback I can see taking the top spot away from the Oregon signal caller.

3. JAMEIS WINSTON, QB, FLORIDA STATE

Given his baseball option and the off-field problems, Winston might not have as many fans in NFL front offices as the two Pac-12 quarterbacks. Winston, a redshirt sophomore, can play college football in 2015 and 2016 if he chooses, so it's not a sure thing that he will jump to the NFL in 2015.

4. ANDRUS PEAT, OT, STANFORD

Three offensive tackles were selected in the top 11 picks this year for the second straight draft, and there will be no drop off among the 2015 selections if the true junior Peat (6-7, 315) joins Iowa's Brandon Scherff (6-5, 320) and Texas A&M's Cedric Ogbuehi (6-5, 300) among those turning pro next year. Peat is the son of former NFL lineman Todd Peat.

5. LEONARD WILLIAMS, DT, USC

A unique talent who could play inside or at defensive end, Williams had six games with seven or more tackles in 2013. At 6-foot-5 and 290 pounds, this true junior is a man among boys at the college level.

6. SHILIQUE CALHOUN, DE, MICHIGAN STATE
7. RANDY GREGORY, DE, NEBRASKA

This could be a great class of pass rushers. Calhoun (6-4, 260) earned Big Ten Defensive Lineman of the Year honors as a redshirt freshman in 2013 after recording 7.5 sacks. He earned the award over CollegeFootballNews.com's National Sophomore Defensive Player of the Year, Randy Gregory from Nebraska. Gregory (6-6, 245), who had 10.5 sacks in 2013, may have even more pro upside.

8. VIC BEASLEY, DE/OLB, CLEMSON
9. BENARDRICK MCKINNEY, OLB, MISSISSIPPI STATE

For teams looking for a 3-4 pass rusher, Beasley or McKinney may be the choice. Only 6-2 and 235 pounds, Beasley led the ACC with 13 sacks and also had 23 tackles for loss in 2013. McKinney has a bigger frame (6-5, 235) and if he can return to his 2012 level of production (when he had 102 tackles), he could be the first pass rusher chosen.

10. IFO EKPRE-OLOMU, CB, OREGON

It should be a strong class of cornerbacks in 2015 led by Ekpre-Olomu. LSU's Jalen Collins and Stanford's duo of safety Jordan Richards and cornerback Alex Carter should also be in the fight to become the first defensive back selected.
