The Browns selected Thrash in the fifth round of the NFL Draft, and he should provide some depth for Cleveland this season. Thrash is not worth drafting in most redraft leagues, and he's a flier at best in rookie-only drafts for Dynasty leagues. The Browns have a crowded receiving corps with Amari Cooper, Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore, and Cedric Tillman and David Bell are also expected to be ahead of Thrash on the depth chart. We'll see if he can make plays when he gets on the field, and the Louisville product had 63 catches for 858 yards and six touchdowns in 2023. At best, you can add Thrash off the waiver wire if he starts off the season playing well.
Thrash made the Browns' initial 53-man roster Tuesday.
Thrash, a 2024 fifth-round draft pick out of Louisville, was one of six wideouts on the Browns' first 53-man roster, beating out Michael Woods and James Proche for a spot. He ended the preseason on a high note with a 46-yard touchdown reception last week and caught 10 of 16 targets for 141 yards over three preseason contests.

Browns' Jamari Thrash: Makes strong case in finale
Rotowire
Thrash brought in four of six targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Browns' 37-33 preseason loss to the Seahawks on Saturday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by Cleveland.
Thrash tied several teammates for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in receiving yards. The rookie fifth-round pick recorded his touchdown on a 46-yard grab from Dorian Thompson-Robinson early in the second quarter, capping off a solid preseason that saw him make what might be a formidable case for a role on the back end of the wide receiver depth chart. Thrash's status as a rookie draft pick could also certainly help his cause, as does David Bell's quadriceps injury.

Browns' Jamari Thrash: Three grabs Saturday
Rotowire
Thrash caught three of five targets for 25 yards in Saturday's 27-12 preseason loss to the Vikings.
The Browns sat all their starters and key reserves, and none of Amari Cooper (undisclosed), Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and Cedric Tillman were on the field. That created opportunities for the team's depth wideouts, and Thrash, a 2024 fifth-round pick out of Louisville, finished the day tied for the team lead in targets with running back D'Onta Foreman. With David Bell (quadriceps) currently sidelined, there could be an opening for Thrash to win the No. 5 spot on the wide receiver depth chart to begin the season.
