Caleb Brantley didn’t get much of an opportunity in Cleveland, only appearing in 12 games in his rookie season. He did have some production however as he recorded two sacks that season and had a fumble recovery.
Brantley was showing some flashes of being a rotational player but he was not retained the following season under John Dorsey. Since then he has been with the Washington Redskins and appeared in eight games over two seasons and has one tackle.
The overall grade is a D
Fifth-round pick Roderick Johnson did not last long in Cleveland. He was placed on IR in September of his rookie season and was eventually waved by the club the following summer and was picked
up by the Houston Texans.
Last season Johnson did start three games for the Texans at tackle.
Overall Grade here is a D
Johnson is still in the league and did start a few games in 2019 so he does not warrant an F grade.
The Browns thought they got a steal in the fourth round when they selected Howard Wilson. And he did show some promise in rookie minicamp but then Wilson had a major knee injury and was never able to play again.
The Browns kept him on the IR for two full seasons before he was released in April of 2019.
Wilson could have been a solid player but never suited up for the Browns.
The overall grade here is an F
Big Larry Ogunjobi has been a stellar draft pick from this draft class. Obtaining him with the 65th overall pick, Larry O has been a steal. Starting 32 games over three seasons for the Browns, Ogunjobi has solidified himself as one of the best players on the defensive side of the ball.
With 134 career tackles and 12 sacks, Ogunjobi is a candidate for a long-term contract extension after this upcoming season. He may even get one at some point this offseason.
Overall Grade is an A-
