Browns149 Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 DO you think the Browns will get anyone that will help the team after all these cuts? Maybe a PK or Punter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 And how about the Browns roster as it stands: Probably In: QBs: Weeden/Campbell/Hoyer RBs: Richardson/Jackson FB: Ogbanaya WRs: Little/Gordon/Benjamin/Bess/Nelson TE: Cameron/ Barnidge/Davis OL: Thomas/Pinkston/Greco/Mack/Moffitt/Lauvao/Gilkey/Schwartz/Butler/Cousins/Shaw DL: Rubin/Taylor/D.Bryant/Hughes/Winn/Kitchen LB: P Kruger/Groves/Jackson/Fort/Robertson/Sheard/Mingo/Carder/Johnson DB: Haden/Skrine/McFadden/Ward/Bademosi/Gipson/Owens/Slaughter/Wade ST: Yount ls/Graham k/Lanning p That is 52 I think...not taking into account any injury issues: Guys on the Bubble: Ryan Miller Norwood Cooper Gronkowski Smelley Marecic Hardesty Possible Practice Squad: Faulk Cave Roberson Hauptmann Aubrey Auguste A. Bryant D. Kruger Maysonet Possible dead men walking?: Justin Cole Abdul Kanneh Vernon Kearney Nicolas Jean-Baptiste Hall Davis Tommy Smith Kendrick Adams Aaron Adams Dominic Alford Martin Wallace Just speculation. Do you see it differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Other guys I didn't count before: Bogotay K Brock Bolen FB TJ Conley P Jamaine Cook RB Dominque Croom WR Mike Edwards WR Tori Gurley WR Naaman Roosevelt WR Travis Tannehill TE What chance do any of these have being stashed on one of the list....or being kept on the active roster.

thenew23 Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Right now IMHO: Shaw won't make the team now that they picked up Moffitt, they can't keep 11 o-linemen. Hardesty will make the roster and will be inactive the first 1-3 weeks, and I also think Norwood makes the final 53; however they are both bubble guys. Other bubble guys are Nelson, Cousins, Kitchen, JMJ, Wade. I think they all make the roster but could be replaced by the PS guys. PS guys look like A.Bryant, Miller, Smelley, Aubrey, Roberson, and/or Cooper IR for Faulk and Lewis It's still hard to say b/c so much changes after waivers, especially practice squad guys, and typically at least one new player gets put on the 53-man roster. We'll see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoeticG Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 They need to allow more players to make the team... with today's injuries and the specializations of some of these players now days, there should be like 60-70 players per team, if the NFL ever wants to move to an 18-20 game season they will have to expand rosters. This should open up more opportunities for smaller name guys with talent and keeping the talent around that you've developed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickers Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I hope they keep Cooper...He reminds Me an aweful lot like Brian Brennan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoeticG Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 Who is going to replace Phil the Foot???????????? I don't know if you can ever truly replace Phil Dawson, you just try to lessen the impact of losing a guy of his caliber. I'd imagine the vet would get the nod and bogotay goes to the practice squad and hope somewhere down the road a young Phil Dawson crosses paths with us again.

gftChris Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'd almost put David Nelson on the bubble, he's been injured so much that he hasn't really been able to show his talent. I think he's only on a one year contract, right? Presumably that was just tto get him in, see if he can perform and sign him to a longer one if he does. He hasn't, yet.

We'll see... I don't think Miller (I assume you meant Ryan Miller) is eligible to be put on the PS. Note the rules above, no one that has played more than 8 games in a season can go there....and I think Miller was on the active roster all last year. The same for Cooper. Not sure about Smelley. No?

Well, that is the point of having a 53 man roster, plus the 8 PS players...that is 61...plus the various injury lists. The Browns could easily keep up to 65 or more of the guys they got stashed somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mistake. You're right about Miller not being eligible. Cooper and Smelley are eligible for PS this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I may not be. PFR says that Miller played in only 6 games last year. Josh Cooper also only played in 6 Smelley played in only 2. So they may all be PS eligible.
