The Browns started their cuts early Saturday by letting go of 17 players.
After a long day of moves, the final ten players moves they made will complete our 32-team journey through Cutdown day.
Cleveland placed Brandon Jackson on injured reserve with a toe injury. There was some dispute about how long Jackson would take to recover, but the Browns clearly felt they couldn’t wait for him. Perhaps an injury settlement could be possible if he gets healthy.
Also cut: OL Dominic Alford, QB Jarrett Brown, RB Tyler Clutts, LB Archie Donald, RB Quinn Porter, DL Brian Sanford, OL Jarrod Shaw, LB Brian Smith, and WR Rod Windsor.

Well, that means Smith (RB) made the team, and the only surprise in the cuts is Coye Francis. Was thinking Carlton Mitchell was definitely on the bubble.
-
I am really starting to like Armond Smith. I am glad we kept him.
Looking over who other teams cut I didn't see anything spectacular ... but I did notice the Jags cut our old pick Don Carey ... We could use the safety depth and he is still very young. I wouldn't hate picking him up. The Bungles also cut Brandon Ghee who was there third round pick last yr. I don't know much about him ... but he was a third rounder just last yr and we also need some CB depth.
I am also a little curious to see if Shurmer trys to have us go after either Donnie Avery or Mardy Gilyrd eventhough I don't think we need either.

if they cut QB Brown..............who's the 3rd string QB?
Brown, he'll be resigned to practice squad assuming he clears waivers- and I'm betting he will.
-
I liked what I saw of Windsor, wr.
I can see him making it to the practice squad maybe.
-
There were no real big suprises that we cut this year. So now that we made our final cut who we gonna pick up off the wire? Im licking my chops at some of the releases:
New England
Brandon Meriiweather, S
Brandon Tate, WR
Denver
Parrish Cox, CB

brandon jackson on ir already ?

New England is good at releasing players at the right time. As appealing as Merriweather may seem I'd doubt he would help us much. I could be wrong

Zombo said:
We will have a third QB on the practice Squad. And on Gamedays, Cribbs can fill the role and run the option if they both are absolutely knocked out.
Zombo
That's my thinking....and it is probably a better option then trying to run our O with a 3rd stringer.
Work Cribbs in practice every once in a while with a 10-15 play package....lot's of roll options and handoffs to Hillis.
-
A guy that's only 27 and went to the Pro-bowl the previous 2 years doesn't lose his job in half a preseason game. Doesn't happen, there was something else that contributed to his release......He's a Chicago Bear now anyway.
I'd like to see S Mark Legree on the team or atleast the practice squad. He's a ballhawk and has alot of potential but playing against weak competition in college isn't helping his chances. David Gilreath would make for a nice developmental receiver on the practice squad to.

Browns claim QB Thaddeus Lewis, LB Quinton Spears, DL Emmanuel Stephens off waivers
by NATE ULRICH on SEPTEMBER 4, 2011
in CLEVELAND BROWNS,NFL
The Browns have claimed the following players off waivers: quarterback Thaddeus Lewis from the St. Louis Rams, linebacker Quinton Spears from the Miami Dolphins and defensive lineman Emmanuel Stephens from the Atlanta Falcons. To make room on their roster, the Browns waived defensive end Auston English and linebacker Benjamin Jacobs. They also terminated the contract of defensive end Derreck Robinson.
The 6-foot, 219-pound Lewis will reunite with coach Pat Shurmur, who spent the past two seasons serving as the Rams' offensive coordinator. Lewis was signed by the Rams last year as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Duke University. He was on the Rams' 53-man roster for the season-opener last year before spending the final 14 weeks on the practice squad. In four preseason games this year, he completed 23-of-32 passes for 266 yards and a passer rating of 96.6.
The 6-4, 234-pound Spears is an undrafted rookie from Prairie View A&M University in Texas, where he played defensive end. In four preseason games this year, he compiled two tackles, a sack and a pass defensed.
The 6-3, 255-pound Stephens signed with the Falcons last year as an undrafted rookie free agent from the University of Mississippi. In four preseason games this year, he recorded nine tackles and a sack.
In addition to the other moves, the Browns also signed six players to their practice squad: offensive linemen Dominic Alford and Jarrod Shaw, fullback Tyler Clutts, running back Quinn Porter, defensive lineman Brian Sanford and wide receiver Rod Windsor. All six players were cut by the Browns on Saturday.

Means Jarrett Brown isn't coming back to be the third QB.
