May 1, 201610 yr If half of these guys work out, which is the average that make it, they will have improved a lot.
May 2, 201610 yr These are the words I would use to describe the Brown's draft picks: 1. All-American -- There were 7 all-Americans among their picks. Cleveland PD's Terry Pluto wrote, They even found four All-Americans on the final day of the draft: Wisconsin linebacker Joe Schobert (fourth round), Rashard Higgins (Colorado State), Baylor tackle Shane Drango (fifth round) and Arizona linebacker Scooby Wright (Arizona). Add these names to the All-American list: Baylor's Corey Coleman (first round), Oklahoma State's Emmanuel Ogbah (second round), and Penn State's Carl Nassib (third round). They picked 14 players, which tied a record for most players selected in a seven-round NFL draft. "This class will start to put a stamp on what we're becoming and what we're all about," said Hue Jackson. 2. Productive -- They selected players who have been really productive in college. a. The four WRs selected combined for 36 TDs in 2015. All of them were among the most productive in the country or in the history of their team, like Colorado State's Rashad Higgins. Jordan Payton of UCLA had 145 catches the last two seasons. "I would say with Corey and Ricardo, the first thing that just sort of jumps out is their speed and their ability to generate explosive plays," Berry said. "Really, you can almost group the four into two separate categories. With Rishard and Jordan, quite honestly, they have size and they catch everything in their catching radius to be quite honest. We feel really good about the mix that we added, think they have complementary skills sets and we're excited to see them get out on the field and compete." -- Cleve PD, Dan Labbe b. The Browns drafted the top two pass rushers in college in 2015 judging by the number of sacks on the year. Emmanuel Ogbah from Oklahoma ST and Penn State's Carl Nassib combined for 28 sacks last season. QB Kessler from USC has a career 67% comp percentage while playing for three different coaches and offenses, though they all were pro style offenses. 3. Character -- a. Auburn O-lineman Shon Coleman battled through cancer as a freshman to come back and establish himself as a top offensive lineman. He undured 2 1/2 years of chemo. He doesn't take anything for granted now. b. Nassib, was a walk-on at Penn State. A coach told him to give up his dream of playing in the NFL and just worry about making the team. He never gave up his dream. He knows how to overcome obstacles. ILB Joe Schobert went from walk on to All-American at Wisconsin. c. Cody Kessler, QB from USC had three different coaches and still was very efficient and productive. See above. Looks like a quality draft to me but one cannot tell until the season begins.
