Browns coach Eric Mangini said Thursday he’s “hopeful” that rookie RB Montario Hardesty can return to practice last week. Hardesty has been out with an injured knee, which he hurt on the eve of training camp. “With those things, you let them go through the full two weeks then see where you are at,” Mangini said. “That’s my hope.” Mangini would like to see how Hardesty looks in preseason action. “I want to, like you guys want to, see him play against some other colors,” Mangini said of Hardesty, who is competing with Jerome Harrison for the starting job. “He’s one of those guys that I think looks better in games than he will in practice because he is a physical guy. I want to give him a chance to get his uniform dirty.”

Browns WR Brian Robiskie said Friday he is developing a solid rapport with new QB Jake Delhomme. “It means a lot, obviously, when you can develop a timing with your quarterback to the point where he knows where you are going to be before you get there,” Robiskie said. “I think that just comes with a lot of practice, a lot of repetition over and over. I think that’s what we are trying to get done out here, and I think we are getting closer to it.”

Browns coach Eric Mangini went on a radio show Monday morning and praised QB Jake Delhomme, who will enter training camp as the starter ahead of Seneca Wallace. “It’s really Jake’s job to lose, and he did a great job during OTAs,” Mangini said on the Dan Patrick Radio Show. “I couldn’t have been happier with him, not just in terms of the way he learned the information but the way he ran the offense.” But Mangini said he’s also impressed with Wallace, and he wants to make sure Wallace gets time working with the first-string offense during camp. “Seneca did a good job too,” Mangini said. “I think it’s important that Seneca gets some reps with the ones, so that if he goes in he does have some time with that group.”
