Washington. Shaq Thompson. 19. player. 53. With the 19th overall pick, the Cleveland Browns will be on the clock for the second time. This is due to their trade with the Buffalo Bills in last year’s draft, allowing the Bills to pick up wideout Sammy Watkins. After picking up Devante Parker with the 12th overall pick, the Browns can now turn their attention to defense. Linebacker Shaq Thompson has it all: he can rush the passer, be used to stop the run and is also great at dropping into coverage. His versatility will make him a nightmare to game plan against, and he has the tools to develop into a fantastic player. Oh, and he can play as an emergency running back too…. OLB
