I was looking at the Browns roster yesterday; I started thinking they have a lot of players that could be on the bubble to make the roster this season.

With Omar Khan as the new general manager, what we came to expect with how many players would be carried at some positions may have changed. With Practice Squad also being able to have even veteran players to be added, have changed how the steelers do their roster cuts.
