Cleveland Browns Roster Cuts Take Roster Down to 63 Players

by Chris Pokorny on Sep 3, 2011 2:05 PM EDT

The Cleveland Browns have announced some of their roster cuts, with the rest expected to be released a little later today. Which players were cut earlier today? Find out after the jump...

Here is the official list of Browns players who have been cut so far:

Offensive Players

Defensive Players

DE Travis Ivey
DT Ko Quaye
DL Andre Carroll
LB Sidney Tarver
LB Steve Octavien
LB Eric Gordon
CB Carl Gettis
CB Coye Francies
CB Ramzee Robinson
S DeAngelo Smith

This puts the Browns roster at 63 players. So far, the only player I was incorrect on in my roster projection was Braxton, although I stated I had a hunch he wouldn't make it. Going based on my roster projection, the players I expect to be cut include QB Jarrett Brown, FB Tyler Clutts, RB Quinn Porter, WR Rod Windsor, OL Dominic Alford, OL Jarrod Shaw, DE Brian Sanford, DT Scott Paxson, LB Benjamin Jacobs and LB Archie Donald. I didn't include OL Oniel Cousins this time, because I assume he'll get a spot over Braxton now. Of the players on my "cut list" remaining, I had projected four of them to make the practice squad.

Surprised they cut Braxton. They must be confident moving some Gs outside if someone goes down.

They must feel ok about Greco and Cousins.

WR… but there are no stats for him from 2010 so I don’t know if he is coming back from an injury or what…

My folks are both from Ohio so I grew up as a Browns fan, but always living in the Tampa Bay area became a Rays fan. I’m 25

I hope Heckert can be as good as friedman :)

Honestly I feel like the two franchises are somewhat mirroring each other, a lot of young players and a focus on developing talent from within. It’s a good time to be a fan of either franchise.
