Now that the NFL Draft is over and done with, it’s time for teams to start molding their rosters for minicamp, OTA’s, and training camp. This is my WAY too early projection for the 2022 Cleveland Browns 53-man roster and depth chart. Yes, Deshaun Watson is most likely going to be suspended for quite a few games but I’m considering how things are right here and now as I write this article. One or both of Jadeveon Clowney and/or Jarvis Landry do appear that they will be re-signed as well, but just like the Watson situation, I’m basing this roster off of Cleveland’s current position.
