As the Cleveland Browns prepare for their final preseason game against the Chicago Bears, there are only a handful of roster spots up for grabs on the active roster. Whether by trade, cut or placing them on injured reserve, the Browns will reduce their roster from 80 to 53 players on their active roster, giving them two weeks to prepare for the regular season.Traditionally, general manager Andrew Berry does some shuffling when rosters get cut down, adding players from other teams via waiver Aaron Gordon Jersey claims or teams. With Deshaun Watson's suspension, the Browns seem more interested in finding players that can contribute in 2023 rather than just 2022. As a result, the team may lean into their youth and see who can become a fixture on this team for when they prepare to make a push for the Super Bowl starting next year.With Berry in his third season, the Browns roster appears stronger and more stable, so the organization may not feel the need to make dramatic moves, instead focusing on a few key opportunities to shape the roster that will open the season with against the Carolina Panthers.Currently on the roster: Jacoby Bri sett, Joshua Dobbs, Josh Rosen, Deshaun WatsonAnalysis:Watson's suspension is now official at 11 games. Dobbs always seemed like the best fit for what the Browns want to do offensively being able to create with his legs. Neverthele s, the Browns opted to bring in Josh Rosen and though his skill set is obvious, his effectivene s has been inconsistent. He could end up on the practice squad.The 53-man roster projection (2): Jacoby Bri sett, Joshua DobbsChanges from latest roster projection: Joshua Dobbs in; Josh Rosen outCurrently on the roster: Nick Chubb, Demetric Felton, Jerome Ford, Kareem Hunt, D'Ernest Johnson, John Kelly Jr.Analysis:It would behoove the Browns to trade Hunt if there's a market for Mo Bamba Jersey him given the length of Watson's suspension, but there may not be. If that's the case, they keep all four of the main backs. Felton is cla sified as a running back on the Browns roster, which is why he's here even if he's likely to be utilized almost exclusively as a wide receiver. The season-ending injury to Jakeem Grant cleared the way for him to make the team. If he is doesn't latch on with another team, John Kelly should end up back on the Browns practice squad.The 53-man roster projection (5): Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, D'Ernest Johnson, Jerome Ford, Demetric FeltonChanges from latest roster projection: Demetric Felton inCurrently on the roster:Daylen Baldwin, David Bell, Ja'Marcus Bradley, Amari Cooper,Mike Harley Jr.,Donovan Peoples-Jones, Anthony Schwartz, Javon Wims, Easop Winston, Michael Woods IIAnalysis:If the Browns opt to move Hunt or another running back, they would likely add another receiver from outside the organization. Beyond that, the Browns are using this year to see which of their young receivers will be a good fit with Watson before making a larger investment next season. If the Browns had to choose one, Mike Harley Jr. is likely the player the team would want on the practice squad.The 53-man roster projection (5): Amari Cooper, Donovan Peoples-Jones, Anthony Schwartz, David Bell, Michael Woods IIChanges from latest roster projection: Jakeem Grant was placed on injured reserveCurrently on the roster:Harrison Bryant, Miller Forristall, Nakia Griffin-Stewart,Nick Guggemos,Zaire Mitchell-Paden, David Njoku,Johnny Stanton IVAnalysis: The question for the Browns is whether they have enough in these young tight ends behind Njoku and Bryant. Through that lens, Forristall and Griffin-Stewart are the two best, but if the Browns have the opportunity to upgrade, they may be tempted. If that happens, Griffin would likely be released with the intent of getting him NBA Orlando Magic Jeresy onto the practice squad.Johnny Stanton has value to the Browns offense and will be a priority for the practice squad as he could be activated to play fullback. Most teams are probably going to do with this with their fullbacks, giving them an extra roster spot to use on Nikola Vucevic Jersey a more premium positionThe 53-man roster projection (4): David Njoku, Harrison Bryant, Miller Forristall, Nakia Griffin-StewartChanges from latest roster projection: NoneCurrently on the roster:T Jack Conklin,T James Hudson III,T Ben Petrula,T Alex Taylor,T Jedrick Wills, G/T Chris Hubbard, G Joel Bitonio, G Drew Forbes, G Blake Hance, G David Moore, G Wyatt Teller, C Ethan Pocic, C/G Michael Dunn, C/G Hjalte Froholdt, C/G Brock HuffmanAnalysis:The lo s of starting center Nick Harris, the Browns are moving ahead with Ethan Pocic as the starter. It has also provided opportunities for Michael Dunn and Hjalte Froholdt to enhance their value as both are able to play guard and center ensuring their spots on the active roster.
