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.

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.

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)

Still of the (current) belief we carry 5 IDL. Tommy was playing well at the 3tech.
-
As poor as the DT play was last season..? A 5th DT is not out of the question with Schwartz wanting a fresh rotation..
Keeping 7 WR's & 7 LB'ers seems like a high number.. But we can't seem to keep many healthy either. Exposing them to the wavier wire with a chance of not returning.. A-Walk/Taki/ now Kuntz may miss time & we don't need that early in the schedule.
Denzel Ward is now out, may need a 6th corner added instead of projected 5.
edit-- I'm preparing to miss my 3-5 projections as normal

I have to make a choice between Jordan Elliott and Tommy Togiai today in my sports sim league. I've been waiting on Elliott to produce for 3 years - I think I'm cutting him. Thoughts?

Tommy Togiai is currently the 126th ranked DT out of 126 DT's. Jordan Elliot is 125th out of 126. (Per PFF) #Browns.......per PFF..... and most people's estimates. A toss up I would go with the most likely to stay on the field IF you can determine that. Personally I like Togiai as a slightly better player if the helps any.
