Browns: Pre-training camp roster depth chart prediction (all 53 players)
By Chad Porto
We’re taking a shot by predicting the final 53 members of the 2021 Browns roster.
We tend not to do predictions too much on here, mostly because regardless of who does them, predictions are often wrong. So let’s do the mea culpa now and just admit that yes, we know someone is going to be on this team that isn’t listed and someone is going to be cut who’s listed. We’re aware that our list won’t be perfect. Yet, we think this is a strong roster and we think that it can be something worth watching.
Now here is how everything is going to break down. The first page will detail every player and what position they play who is currently part of the Browns 90-man roster. The NFL has to cut down to 53 men for the 2021 season. They may also carry 12 practice squad players, so we’re going to fill that squad with people we’ve cut from the previous 90.
One thing to note, we’re not factoring in any potential trades or injuries into the equation. So let’s take a look at both sides of the ball and see who makes up the 90 men currently on the Browns 2021 roster.
