Cleveland Browns head coach Eric Mangini spoke to the media Monday morning regarding the roster cuts and the health of certain players on the team. Here are some highlights from the press conference [click here for the full transcript]:
Shaun Rogers and His Spot on the D-Line

(On if Shaun Rogers is going to practice and if he is going to play on Sunday) -- &quot;Yes, he is going to practice some today and it will increase a little bit more as the week goes on. I can see him playing on Sunday.
(On where Shaun Rogers will be practicing) -- &quot;He&amp;rsquo;s going to be practicing in his core spots which is nose tackle, and then he will also work some of the other spots.&amp;nbsp; There is a designated amount of reps that we have for him some it may be package specific that he will work on initially and again as the week goes on he will be able to do more and more so we will be able to do more and more. I think as the weeks go on that could continue to expand.&quot;
(On if Rogers has had any contact and how they are going to prepare him for Sunday) -- &quot;On PUP you are not able to able to do that.&amp;nbsp; He will get a little bit of that today. You&amp;rsquo;ll increase it during the week. I think some other teams are facing the same thing where you get a guy back at this point.&amp;nbsp; Now the advantage they have is with an older guy and more experienced guy, there&amp;rsquo;s less of a learning curve there than a younger guy.&quot;
(On Ahtyba Rubin&amp;rsquo;s development and if Rogers will play defensive end) -- &quot;Rubin has earned the right to play and Rubin will play.&amp;nbsp; He has done an exceptional job. I really have enjoyed watching his growth just with my time here and seeing him develop not just as a player but as a pro.&amp;nbsp; He&amp;rsquo;s earned the right to play so that&amp;rsquo;s a good thing because Shaun does have the ability to play nose tackle, he has the ability to play defensive end.&amp;nbsp; To be able to mix guys in at different spots it gives you depth, it gives you a chance to spell people during the course of a game and it also gives you some versatility in terms of matchups that you want against your opponents&amp;rsquo; offensive linemen.&amp;nbsp; I think Rubin&amp;rsquo;s development, growth and progress have been a real positive in terms of the flexibility that it gives us defensively.&quot;

Comments - It's very encouraging to hear that Rogers will probably be playing this Sunday against the Buccaneers. In the off chance that we can't win very many games against the contenders this season, we need to be at our best against the lower competition. Rogers will help generate a pass rush up front that we've been lacking, and keeping Rubin at nose tackle is something we've discussed here throughout the offseason. By the way, Rogers was indeed on the practice field Monday, according to reports.


  
Jerome Harrison's Increased Workload

(On if Harrison took Montario Hardesty&amp;rsquo;s injury as a challenge to step up and carry the load) -- &quot;I never got the sense from Jerome that the things that he was going to do were going to be dependent on somebody else.&amp;nbsp; You don&amp;rsquo;t ever want that.&amp;nbsp; You don&amp;rsquo;t want someone saying, &amp;lsquo;Okay because he&amp;rsquo;s doing X, I&amp;rsquo;m going to do Y.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;rsquo;m going to do this because it&amp;rsquo;s right for me.&amp;rsquo;&amp;nbsp; I get that sense form Jerome.&amp;nbsp; He has certain goals, he has certain things that he wants to achieve.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;rsquo;m talking about growth and development.&amp;nbsp; It wasn&amp;rsquo;t based on Montario being here, it wasn&amp;rsquo;t based on anybody being here.&amp;nbsp; It was based on what he wanted to do for him.&amp;nbsp; That&amp;rsquo;s, I think, a very healthy approach.&quot;
(On if he talked to Harrison about what he expects from him going into the season) -- &quot;I haven&amp;rsquo;t really had that individual sit down this year.&amp;nbsp; Jerome and I talk all of the time, it&amp;rsquo;s not a function of having one sort of landmark meeting.&amp;nbsp; I like to think in squad meetings and things like that, we get a sense of where we are coming from.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;rsquo;m always open to talking to any of the guys at any point.&amp;nbsp; He understands the things that he has to do and he understands the great opportunity that he has in front of him.&amp;nbsp; I expect him to seize that opportunity like he did last year and run with it.&quot;

Comments - I think we'll see Harrison get a decent workload per game, which would be around 20 carries. If the Browns utilize Peyton Hillis and the passing game, that would be the reason that he doesn't reach the 30-carry mark. It'll be interesting to see if James Davis gets worked into the lineup at all. Right now, I'm just expecting it to be Harrison and Hillis, with Davis maybe getting a touch or two if Harrison just broke a 30+ yard run shy of a touchdown or something.
Roster Versatility at Tight End, Linebacker, and Cornerback

(On the abundance of linebackers) -- &quot;I think there&amp;rsquo;s going to be different combinations with those guys and it&amp;rsquo;s a balancing act between special teams and the packages and making sure that you&amp;rsquo;ve got enough of both to do what you&amp;rsquo;d like to do.&amp;nbsp; Typically with us, a lot of linebackers play on third down as defensive line types.&amp;nbsp; Most of our outside linebackers are the same size as your average 4-3 defensive end.&amp;nbsp; Those guys are around 270 lbs, our guys are around 255-260 lbs so there&amp;rsquo;s not a big variation between a 4-3 end and a 3-4 outside linebacker on average, give or take five pounds.&quot;
(On what Michael Adams&amp;rsquo; role will be as the fourth corner) -- &quot;Mike actually started quite a few games for us last year at the corner position and he plays a lot of corner type roles whether it be the inside slot player or the star player for us.&amp;nbsp; He has started outside, he&amp;rsquo;s started inside and he played safety and that&amp;rsquo;s a really good thing.&amp;nbsp; It allows us to do some different things with him that you may not be able to do with some other players, one of the things I really like about him, and you are always looking to build within the system.&quot;
(On what went into the decision to keep four tight ends) -- &quot;I thought that Alex (Smith) had a really good camp.&amp;nbsp; What I liked about him is no matter what we asked him to do, he did it pretty well.&amp;nbsp; We asked him to play fullback in the backfield, he did that pretty well.&amp;nbsp; We asked him to be the in-line tight end, he did that pretty well.&amp;nbsp; We asked him to be the off the line tight end, he did that pretty well.&amp;nbsp; He created a role for himself in the fact that he can play multiple roles, so that was really the thought process.&quot;

Comments - I'm still amazed that we have 12 linebackers on the roster. I was trying to think of eight inactive players we would have on gameday, and I came up with:

Colt McCoy
Carlton Mitchell
Derreck Robinson
D'Qwell Jackson (injury)
Alex Smith
Titus Brown
David Veikune

Those are seven likely ones I came up with, which puts the in-game linebacker count at 9. One more player needs to be inactive, and I'm guessing that'd either be a linebacker or a safety -- perhaps Sorensen is he still has concussion problems.
Other things that Mangini mentioned are that John St. Clair is practicing again, Floyd Womack may be back Wednesday, and he really likes the progress that Brian Robiskie made this year.

    <description>Browns Sign C Steve Vallos from&amp;nbsp;Seahawks
PFT reports that the Cleveland Browns added center Steve Vallos to their roster. Vallos was a seventh-round pick of the Seahawks in 2007. He played in every game in 2008 and 2009, starting in eight of them. No word on who the Browns waived to make room for Vallos, but my guess would be Billy Yates or Titus Brown.

Did the Cleveland Browns get the &quot;Z&quot; announcers this week or what? Calling the Cleveland vs. Tampa Bay game this Sunday on CBS will be Rich Gannon and Spero Dedes. Dedes is new to CBS, previously doing radio work for Los Angeles Lakers games.

The game will probably be blacked out for Tampa Bay fans this week. If you live in the Cleveland area, these are the games you will see this Sunday:

1:00 PM Games
-Cleveland Browns vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (CBS)
-Atlanta Falcons vs. Pittsburgh Steelers (FOX)

4:00 PM Games
-Green Bay Packers vs. Philadelphia Eagles (FOX)

8:20 PM Games
-Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Redskins (NBC)

The Cleveland Browns announced six of eight players who will be on the practice squad, per a tweet by the OBR. Currently, the players reported to be on the practice squad are:

OG Pat Murray
OG Paul Fanaika
DL Brian Sanford
DL Travis Ivey
DB DeAngelo Smith
DB Larry Asante

What happened to DE Clifton Geathers? Well, reports indicate that the Miami Dolphins claimed him off waivers, meaning he will be on their 53-man roster. Another thing to note is that the Browns did not put Coye Francies on the practice squad. While it's not a &quot;crushing loss&quot; or anything of that nature, I still wanted the team to give him a shot.
With two spots open on the practice squad, they will either sign someone from a different team who was waived, or they might be reserving a spot for another player they will waive (i.e. maybe a Titus Brown). Project player Joel Reinders is not on the practice squad.


  
You can definitely say goodbye to Brandon McDonald for good now, since he signed with the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals are doing their best job to assemble a roster full of former Browns. Their roster includes:

QB Derek Anderson
RB Jason Wright
OG Rex Hadnot
CB Brandon McDonald
S Hamza Abdullah

First off, the Cleveland Browns activated defensive lineman Shaun Rogers from the physically unable to perform list. That's good news, because it means he might be available to play by Week 1. At the very least, he won't be out for six weeks.
The following players were cut by the Cleveland Browns, trimming their roster from 75 to the league required 53 players:
(Key: Expected Cut, Highlighted/Notable Cut, Shocker Cut)


  
OFFENSIVE PLAYERS CUT

QB Brett Ratliff
RB Chris Jennings
WR Bobby Engram
WR Jake Allen - No surprise given he had two horrible drops in the final preseason  game, one that led to an interception. He's also made several blunders  at the receiver position in other preseason games.
WR Syndric Steptoe - He was a former seventh-round pick who happened to stick around  awhile. I thank him for his cool name, but after several years, it was  clear he really couldn't benefit our offense.
TE Joel Gamble - We didn't get a long look at the young tight end, but he was already released once so this wasn't a surprise.
OT Scott Kooistra
OT Joel Reinders - We finally saw our YouTube project  in action against the Bears for a few series. His highlights were  allowing a pass rusher to easily blow by him and then to receive a  lecture from Mangini on the sideline. There's still an off chance he  could be on the practice squad for development.
OG Casey Bender - Bender had no shot at making the final roster, and neither did  Fanaika below. They either didn't get reps in the preseason, or were a  part of the offensive line that kept getting McCoy and Ratliff killed.
OG Paul Fainaka - See above.
OG Pat Murray

DEFENSIVE PLAYERS CUT

DE Clifton Geathers
DE C.J. Mosley - With Brian Schaefering coming on strong, this wasn't too big  of a surprise I guess. On that note, I would've thought we would've just  left him on the PUP for six weeks in case we needed him.
DT Travis Ivey
DT Swanson Miller
DL Brian Sanford
CB Coye Francies - Can we please try to get Francies  on the practice squad? He has a knack for taking a chance at making the  tackle at the line of scrimmage rather than waiting for a  receiver/runner to come to him.
CB Brandon McDonald - This is probably the biggest surprise given the news that Gerard Lawson and Coye Francies had already been cut. This either means we will keep the extra safeties for special teams help, or someone like Chris Chancellor or DeAngelo Smith will sneak on the roster. If nothing else, we could probably find a  veteran corner who was cut from a different team and sign him.
CB DeAngelo Smith
CB Chris Chancellor
S Larry Asante

Now let's take a look at some surprise players who did make the team. These are players who were on the bubble:
POTENTIAL &quot;SURPRISES&quot; TO THE TEAM

It is over as soon as it started.
Sources are reporting&amp;nbsp;that Montario Hardesty has torn his ACL and will miss the rest of the 2010-2011 season. It is a shame for Hardesty considering he had just gotten back on the field and was finally getting into some action. Hardesty has had knee troubles his entire football career, including a major operation to his other knee in 2005.
If you watched the game, you could see why the Browns coaching staff was so excited about this kid. Here is hoping that Hardesty can find his way back to the field 100% next season, after all, Jerome Harrison is a free agent next year.&amp;nbsp;Peyton Hillis is going to have to step up.&amp;nbsp;
Chris will have a much more in-depth review of last nights game in the days to come.

    <description>The NFL fined Detroit Lions DT Ndamukong Suh $7,500 for his controversial hit on Cleveland Browns QB Jake Delhomme last week, an NFL official tells ESPN?s Adam Schefter. The league was expected to review the play, during which Suh grabbed Delhomme?s facemask then held the quarterback?s head as he slammed him to the ground. At the time of the play, the Lions were assessed a 15-yard penalty, but some thought Suh should have been ejected. Kyle Vanden Bosch said that would have been an overreaction.</description>
