Surprised to see Fabiano waived, thought he could be good back up, great athlete. 

Johnson injury may have pushed Fabs out in favor of keeping Sterup. Only reason I can see for keeping Zack over Fabs...

What was the deal with Greco?

To much money? 

Injury issues?

I thought that dude was the OL safety net/plug and play?

I can see wanting to go with youth but they kept 10 OL... I think he could have held a spot on a OL that needs to protect a Rookie QB...

My man Ricardo made it. Shocked Leslie didn't. Only kept 5 wideouts which seems low. 10 OL seems excessive. Glad to see Nacua made it. Surprised Cooper didn't.

Agree....5 wr is low and 10 ol is high......Id expect changes to both soon enough.....

So we have by 12pm eastern to take a few from waivers? That right? And this also says we can start our PS list @ 1pm eastern.

That's not reading right (to me) . . .

Waived (Cut) Players can not be signed until after Noon today, and the Browns are first in line due to their record.

Also, that is when Players can be put on the PS.

Nope... ends at noon today...

Sept. 3 Claiming period for players placed on waivers at the final roster reduction will expire at 12:00 noon, New York time.

  1. Is there any limit on how many players the browns can claim before they no longer have priority?
  2. For example if they claim three would they then move down the order? 
  1. Yes... 53.
  2. No.
  3. :)

SB Nation has a waiver signing tracker up and running. Nothing to report as yet. Here's the link... I will also add it to the OP.

Hmm, that's not the way I was understanding it, but that's what they are saying.

 

I would have expected to see a lot of activity with that being the case, but haven't seen anything from the Browns.

Thought that was also part of the Brock signing holdup . . .

 

Must say, I am confused with this being the case . . . wonder if there is some kind of Draft compensation involved for picking off the Waiver Wire before Noon.
