The Browns have lost starting DE Robaire Smith for the season due to a ruptured Achilles Tendon.  He started both games for the Browns this season and he had 5 tackles.  Smith started all 16 games for the Browns last season and he made 56 tackles, had 4 sacks and he defensed 2 passes.  Robaire Smith is a good run defender for an end so he will be missed.  Shaun Smith will enter the starting lineup either at end or nose tackle.  Smith has played in both games for the Browns this season and he has made 6 tackles and he has a sack.  Smith played in 15 games (11 starts) for the Browns last season and he made 62 tackles, had 2 sacks and he defensed 3 passes.  The Browns’ defensive line depth takes a hit with Shaun Smith moving into the starting lineup but the starting lineup shouldn’t suffer much.
