I get slow the roll on Brantley. But let's not overvalue our own guys either - Lanier is barely worthy of a roster spot in today's NFL.

Reserve players need to be versatile. Brantley is certainly more-so than Lanier.
For what its worth, some mock drafts had him to the skins in the 2nd last year. There is a whole mock to skins writeup here. Pretty good claiming a dude of waivers that they liked anyways for free. He seems at least a solid rotational prospect. He also led the browns in snaps in preseason. Perhaps they were trying to stash him on PS as it was a bit of a suprise cut
