QUARTERBACKS
Active Roster (2)
QB Deshaun Watson, QB Jacoby Brissett
With QB Joshua Dobbs likely on the Practice squad being injury and or suspension insurence.

RUNNING BACKS
Active Roster (3)
RB Nick Chubb, RB Kareem Hunt, RB Jerome Ford. These guys are just not as good as the other 3 guys RB D’Ernest Johnson RB Trey Harbison, RB John Kelly. I think Johnson is likely tob be a candidate to be added to a Mayfield trade as it spreads Mayfields cap number over 2 players with expiring contracts/tenders.

H-BACK (2)
RB/WR Demetric Felton & FB/TE Johnny Stanton
I think the versatility of each of these guys keeps the on the roster. Week to week I expect at least one of these guys to rotate to and off of thr practice squad to kep the number at 53 instead of 54 thus taking advantage of the 55 man roster rule.

TIGHT ENDS
Active Roster (3)
TE David Njoku, TE Harrison Bryant, are locks with TE Miller Forristall TE Zaire Mitchell-Paden and TE Marcus Santos-Silva in a 3 way battle for the 3rd spot

WIDE RECEIVERS
Active Roster (6)
WR Amari Cooper, WR Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR David Bell, WR Isaiah Weston, WR Anthony Schwartz, WR Jakeem Grant. With WR Javon Wims WR Jamarcus Bradley, WR Travell Harris WR Mike Harley Jr. and WR Michael Woods II ALL on the outside looking in IMO. Harley, Harris and Woods will also be trying unseat Grant as a return man. Also Schwartz could be some one who gets moved along with Mayfield. As he is one heck of an athlete but not a very good football player. And some GM/coauch might say yeah a guy with his speed is worth a gamble.

OFFENSIVE LINEMEN
Active Roster (10)
Center is WIDE open with Pocic having the inside track with 40 NFL starts to Harris’s 2. But this is going to be the Royal Rumble of position battles IMO this summer. As you could pick any 2 of these guys on that list and say thats our 2 centers and I would thats viable possibility.
C Ethan Pocic, C Nick Harris, C Dawson Deaton C/G Brock Hoffman C/G Drew Forbes, C/G Hjalte Froholdt

GUARD
G Joel Bitonio, G Wyatt Teller, G Michael Dunn, G Blake Hance are all locked in with G David Moore trying to unseat one of the back ups.

Tackle
T Jedrick Wills, T Jack Conklin, T Chris Hubbard, T James Hudson, are all locked in with T Alex Taylor, T Ben Petrula, T Elijah Nkansah trying to unseat the expensive and oft injured Hubbard.

DEFENSIVE ENDS
Active Roster (5)
DE Myles Garrett, DE Chase Winovich, DE Alex Wright, DE Isaiah Thomas. I think these for are lock with the next 3 batteling out for the 5th spot. The nest 3 being: DE Isaac Rochell DE Stephen Weatherly DE Curtis Weaver. Now if Clowney is back he locks up the 5th spot and those 3 guys are on the outside looking in.

DEFENSIVE TACKLES
Active Roster (4)
DT Taven Bryan, DT Jordan Elliott, DT Tommy Togiai, DT Perrion Winfrey, With DT Roderick Perry II & DT Sheldon Day on the outside looking in.

LINEBACKERS
Active Roster (6)
LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, LB Jacob Phillips, LB Anthony Walker, LB Sione Takitaki, (LB Silas Kelly LB vs Tony Fields II LB vs Willie Harvey Jr.) The Browns carried 6 linebackers last year. So I don’t think it is a stretch to say they won’t do the same again. Also I think Kelly has one of the best shots as a UDFA to make the roster as his competition is very meh. And he has something to offer no other LB on the team has. The height and wingspan to cover TE’s 1 on 1 in man to man coverage. So it’s a 3 way dance for the 2 rooster spots at LB IMO, with the lead horse IMO actually being the UDFA.

CORNERBACKS
Active Roster (5)
CB Denzel Ward, CB Greg Newsome, CB A.J. Green, CB Greedy Williams, CB Martin Emerson. The other 2 guys CB Shaun Jolly, CB Herb Miller are on the outside looking in and might nake the practice squad.

SAFETIES
Active Roster (5)
S Grant Delpit, S John Johnson III, S Ronnie Harrison, S Richard LeCounte & (S D’Anthony Bell vs S Nate Meadors) Woods likes to use safties just as nuch as he does corners. SO IMO it is an even split between Corners and Safeties roster spot wise. Meaning Bell & Meadors go at it for the 5th spot.

SPECIALISTS
Active Roster (3) K Cade York, LS Charley Hughlett, (P Joseph Charlton vs P Joseph Charlton) Camp Battle for the punter spot.
