The Cleveland Browns released their first unofficial depth chart of the season on Sunday. This is one of the first years where we don’t have to monitor who is atop the chart at quarterback.
It’s always important to stress the word unofficial for these preseason depth charts, because typically, they are put together by staff members in the organization and not the head coach. Nonetheless, it’s still fun to look at where players fall. NOTE: We have manually amended this chart at WR to reflect the trading of WR Corey Coleman.

Notes About the Depth Chart
Players in (parenthesis) mean they are injured, thus their ranking on the depth chart should not be taken literally.
- Darren Fells is ahead of Seth DeValve, although DeValve has missed some time to injury.
- Right guard is obviously the main position in flux because of injury; normally, Kevin Zeitler would be at the top instead of Spencer Drango.
- Chad Thomas hasn’t had much camp work, so he is still behind Carl Nassib.
- Mychal Kendricks is listed behind Joe Schobert, and Genard Avery is listed as an outside linebacker. I would’ve thought that would be flipped between Kendricks and Avery.
- Terrance Mitchell is ahead of T.J. Carrie at cornerback.
