Cuts to 53....
-
We have 2 more cuts to make in 4 weeks with gordon and bryant returning.
My guess is 2 of the 5 just claimed, probably one of the DB's and one of Holmes/Lemonier.

The bottom of the roster will keep evolving. And injuries happen. Things will look different five weeks from now.

not going to carry 7 WRs, Hawkins will probably be the odd man out.

Colquitt is the only "P" on the 53...
Thanks Tour! I appreciate the depth charts too. What jumps out at you most when you look at the defensive depth chart right now?
Maybe, but some vet presence in the WR room like Hawk would supply would be nice...

Youth and the lack of depth on the OL. Youth is good, depth not so.

Well lack of OL depth in the Defensive Depth Chart is a given...
But I hear you... we haven't had quality OL depth in a long time.

getting technical now are you? it did say D didn't it? Oh well OL depth still jumps out like a sore thumb. Our front line OL can't open a hole to save their lives, not sure how they are going to run the ball. For once I would love to see a dive go for more than 6 inches.

Since I are (or was) an Engineer, it's what I do. Just reflecting the fact that my "youth" answer was in response to a question about the D. No offense meant...
Hard to look at either side of the ball and find "depth" of any certain quality and only a couple "maybes".
- Maybe at QB if McC plays as well as he did last year, but then the quality of our starter is debatable.
- Maybe at WR, if a significant percentage of our Rooks pan out.

I can't believe we got Kevin Hogan! WHAT?!?! Kessler is definitely going to need more time before he ever sees the field in a real game. Hogan was a guy I thought we should take in the draft. This is good.

So...
- KC waives Hogan with plans to sign him to their PS.
- Then we claim him with plans to sign him to our PS?
OK... I'm system confused...
I know once on a PS a player can still be claimed by another team, but then he has to be on their 53-man.
Can a waived player who is claimed be signed directly to a PS? Would seem to be the case for the waiving team, but any claiming team?
Edit: Yup... there it is...
For a player who is released to be put on the practice squad, they are first put through waivers. At that point, any team can put in a claim and try to sign him, either to their active roster or to their practice squad with a higher offer.

So in essence PS signing is like a mini-FA... I did not know that.

Thanks Tour! I appreciate the depth charts too. What jumps out at you most when you look at the defensive depth chart right now?
Cant say there are any surprises in the cuts or players kept on the final 53....the surprise cuts and non-signings happened weeks and months ago...so, now the roster is full of potential, but little or no proven talent.....and, because of that, the "potential" will get the opportunity to play a lot, rather than sitting......so, in the famous words of Canton Mike.....we shall see.....
What jumps out at you most when you look at the defensive depth chart right now?
Nothing jumps out....except inexperience, youth and a lack of strong leadership.....and, of course, many hopefuls that we'd all like to see develop.....happy to see Scooby and Alexander made it.....should be good stories, ifn they turn out to be good....

The Browns also plan to sign former Stanford quarterback Kevin Hogan to the practice squad on Monday. A fifth-round pick of the Chiefs, he was waived this week. ESPN first reported that Hogan would be joining the practice squad.
Before the draft, Hogan looked better, to me, than Kessler did.....haven't seen any preseason tape on him, but it couldnt look worse than Kess did, could it???
Only 22 returning from last year's opening 53... that has to be a record. Only like 7 of 22 starters... Basically we're watching a different team this year
And going back just 3 years(Chuds 53), we have only 3 returning starters....Haden, Thomas and Greco.....so, reality is that the "rebuild" started after 2013 and the roster has been completely turned....So, we are in year 3 of major rebuild......and the core nucleus pretty much establishes that, with Shelton, Cooper, Campbell, Kirksey, Orchard, Crowell, Duke, Pryor, Erving, Meder & McCown all having grown into starters roles ....or major contributors....

A whole team of maybes???......yep....
Hoping we have potential depth at maybe SS....& maybe MLB.....and maybe TE?.....my guess?.....maybe

The KC fanbase isn't happy they lost him. My buddy is a Chiefs fan and steered me towards one of their forums, and there was lots of bitching about Reid.

Finally a name from my culled list, Reynolds. Big hitter I can see as a SS/OLB hybrid.
Missed spotting Fabiano in BLT's cuts, but he was in the 75 list... plus he was listed as a Center. This was a kid I watched tape of pre-draft. Really good feet at LT, but lacking upper body strength at the time. Also remember getting distracted by this DeValve kid flashing at WR.
