Browns Cuts
-
I wouldn't mind taking a shot at Beanie with the injuries to our RBs. I also wouldn't mind Joe McKnight. Two very different style runners, but backs that have actually played in the league and somewhat produced when healthy. Not like either player would see many touches, but I think it could be worth a look.

Latest on Browns Roster:
Browns' final roster may lean heavily on waivers
Banner and Chudzinski are saying emphatically what Lombardi, who seldom comes up for air in public, is not. That is, Cleveland will play the waiver wire hard.
Could be a bit different Team than what we went through the Pre-Season with.
Personally, I wouldn't mind us picking up a good RB (since we lost Lewis), CB, an RG if available.
Could be an interesting Weekend.

David Nelson is gone

Glad to see Schmidt lasted 3 days since his signing on the 28th. No wonder the travel expense account is skyrocketing.

Lanning probably cemented the job by filling in as placekicker the other night, that versatility could come in handy.

Graham's pregame back strain cost Schmidty dearly. Lanning had some monster punts to go along with his field goals.

With Gordon out for two games and Nelson cut ("just not ready to play"), we are actually a little thin. Bess hasn't been practicing for a while now. Guys like Cooper and/or Gurley are gonna be on the roster.
But our hugest hole is at backup running back. As in, Jackson sucks and we don't actually have one. Can't say right guard because both Cousins and Gilkey have played well and Pinkston and Lauvao aren't out for very long.
Corner looks a little disturbing because McFadden has sort of sucked playing out of his normal style (he's a pure man-to-man cover guy who started about 48 games like that in a passing conference). My only reason to relax a little there is Owens and Skrine have both played well, Owens has been dinged, and both Gipson and Bademosi can step up and cover big WRs.
I expect at least one trade and a few waiver signings.

I figure the Bears won't cut that smallish rb that played against us well...
but if they do, I'd sign him to replace Dion Lewis this year in a NY second.
Maybe trade for him.....

Slim pickings for available RB'S. Who's the best of the worst?
Browns RB trade bait likely to come from LB or DE if at all

Graham and Slaughter cut.

I'm upset at the Gurley cut. He's more reliable than Nelson (cut), a better physical specimen than Norwood (cut) and has more upside than Cooper (somehow still on the roster).
Would be a good practice squad player if he clears.
