~ The Cleveland BROWNS Depth Chart - (5-27-2023). Subject to revisions.
-
Browns are spoiled for choice at backup OL. Jones, Martin, Wypler, Dunn, Hudson.. and Harris. That's a replacement OL L-R that is at minimum competent and at most a couple of near-all-pros. Here's hoping they're ST all-stars because I don't want to lose any of them.. and it's been a while since we've had anything other than starters.

We better hope some of them are capable to move into starting positions in the near future, because (as you know) the Browns can't avoid salary cap hell forever.

Might be time for a Browns clearer Depth Chart going into PSG3 Eagles inter-squad practices
Latest moves
a.) Browns place LB Jacob Phillips on IR with torn pectoral (out season)
b.) Browns sign former Colts RB Jordan Wilkins
Wilkins has played in 54 games in the NFL since 2018. He averaged over 5.5 yards per carry his first two seasons, on 111 rushing attempts but has only had 13 carries the last two seasons.
c.) Browns waive S Bubba Bolden with injury designation (hamstring injury)
d.) Browns sign S Nate Meadors (former Browns PS)
At this time, only Ourlads is showing the correct personal.. Injury & personal rotation are day to day
️ = Injury/ not returned to practice
Update soon after Philly week
-
10 days away from August 29th's 53 man roster cut down date for 32 teams.
Some releases may become released has soon as this Week before the final Pre-season games.
Cut Tracker's have started-https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-roster-cuts-tracker-team-by-team-player-moves-ahead-of-the-2023-season
I'll hold my water on releasing a Browns 53, on hopes of some Pup's or injury clarity that may open some spots after PSG4 at KC. I'm not even counting out Berry on snooping out trade targets at this juncture before teams release them.
Not the paid click writers though.

If this had happened in February, Moore wouldn't be on this team.
My changes with OBR's prediction are:
Fields makes the 53 at LB because all he does is make plays and be in the right spot.
Hickman makes the 53 at S over a 6th LB.
Obscure player note - Sometimes, the jack of all trades guy is in fact good at none of them.

Sadly going to miss this KC game live due to working ?
I've got 40'ish that feel safe..
On the Bubble to finalize.. (any others?)
1.) QB Mond.. Does he take a 53 spot? or waived again to PS? (teams have the option to carry only 2)
2.) RB Felton or Wilkins or FA?
3.) WR Grant vs. Darden vs. Watkins.. goodbye Schwartz !
4.) C Keep Nick Harris, while Wypler swings to G vs Dunn.. Does Forbes move to short term IR? Wes Martin to PS?
5.) DT Elliott vs Hurst vs Togiai
6.) LB Kunaszyk vs. Mike Adams OLB Fields vs Diabate
7.) CB Mike Ford vs AJ Green
8.) S Hickman vs. Bell
9.) DE- Rumors say Wright gets on 53, while M.Thomas gets buried on a injury list? Sam Kamara might be a watch at KC?
Going to assume WR's Michael Woods/M.Goodwin..DE's Thomas-Wright.. LB Taki.. TE H. Bryant & G Drew Forbes see's some type of injury list NFI/PUP/IR
Score some points & get after KC Defense !

AJ Green, Diabate make the team. Hopefully Watkins. Toigai is on the bubble but playing his best football
i think we use the waiver wire for RB.
Id like us to stash Charlie Thomas LB on the practice squad.
I don’t have a clue on the offensive line but I bet some teams are watching our cuts. Same with WR someone will give Schwartz a shot
-
It's great to see Berea making decisions based on who's the best player rather than "we want 6 LB" etc.
S Hickman vs LB Fields vs LB Adams vs LB Diabate -- Much roster construction assumes an extra LB would be the take for ST.. but Hickman is big enough to do similar work in ST and is what you want at the back of the S group.
And Goodwin's injury has to give Grant the edge.. can't roster someone who will just be IR in 2 weeks.
As for WR Watkins.. He definitely won't get through the waiver wire so likely makes it.
QB Mond.. likely does the waiver wire dance all season because QB3 doesn't have to be on 53
-
The Browns have 2 injury options...
1.) Players placed on injured reserve before the roster cut-down at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, he will be out for the season
2.) Players have to make the initial 53-man roster than go on IR to be eligible to return from the list during season.
Players of #1 concern would now include?
12 Woods II, Michael NFI 19 GOODWIN, MARQUISE NFI 88 Bryant, Harrison 20/4 51 Kunaszyk, Jordan SF22 9 GRANT SR., JAKEEM U/Chi Updates to watch for Sunday & Monday.. Grant (Patella) & Kunaszyk (knee) have MRI's today

Damn it.. Kunaszyk could be out a while https://www.si.com/nfl/browns/news/browns-linebacker-to-miss-time-with-knee-injury
WR Ant Schwartz is a easy release.. The roster questions really begin, when ya try to keyhole in-- Elliott- AJ Green-D'Anthony Bell- Hickman or Moe DiaBate into 2-3 spots..
Grant's loss may turn into Watkins or Darden's chance ? Grant Injury Update: WR Jakeem Grant Sr. out for season with ruptured patellar tendon.
Debate may fill Kunaszyk loss? But Berry rarely keeps 5-6 LB'ers.. Tony Fields is making this roster !
edit- getting the feeling it's either D'Ant Bell or Hickman they try to squeeze to PS?

Browns add RB Pierre Strong Jr. From the Pats for Tyrone Wheatley Jr.
Shifty guy good pass catching ability. I think Felton is gone now.
-
RAS.football@MathBombPierre Strong Jr. was drafted with pick 127 of round 4 in the 2022 draft class. He scored a 9.35 RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 107 out of 1632 RB from 1987 to 2022. ras.football/ras-informatio… #RAS #Patriots
Never a bad thing to get the #1 "athlete" at a position for a guy who is about to get cut.
The more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you. "When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less." Paul Brown -
Hot damn ! how bout some good news !
The Cleveland Browns are set to get some speed back on the field as they work through their final 53-man roster cutdowns. In his press availability today, head coach Kevin Stefanski told the media that deep threat wideout Marquise Goodwin is set to return, cleared from the non-football injury list.
Camryn Justice@camijustice#Browns Kevin Stefanski said WR Marquise Goodwin will come off the non-football injury list after missing time with blood clots.https://brownswire.usatoday.com/2023/08/27/browns-marquise-goodwin-cleared-2023/

Didn't D.Watson in Houston play with a WR or RB with the same last name of Strong? PJ? AJ?
Looks like we have a RB3 not compared to Felton's playing style.
- Needs technique work but will lay into blitzing linebackers.
- Runs with consistent forward lean and finishes with dropped pads.
nice deal, only giving up on a PS player in Wheatley on this squad (he's been ok when given T3 reps)
