Justin Madubuike is a prospect that many are saying could climb up draft boards as the process goes on. With a strong performance at the Combine and in team workouts, Madubuike could be someone who a lot of teams covet. The Browns scoop him up here early in the second round to help bolster their defensive line.

Madubuike stands at 6-foot-3 and 304 pounds, and he uses every bit of his size to jump into the gaps that are there. He always seems to time his jump excellently and can get out of his stance quickly. Perhaps the best thing about Madubuike is his versatility, as he played just about every defensive line position as an Aggie. That’s a good thing for Cleveland, who could not only use him on the interior of their defensive line, but use his abilities at every position up front as well.

Madubuike would be a very good addition to the Browns defensive front, a unit that overall struggled at times this past season. While Sheldon Richardson broke out and showed his contract was worth it, Larry Ogunjobi struggled for most of the season. He would also be a great addition to a position that lacks any sort of depth, as John Dorsey again opted to go with top-line talent over overall depth.
