2. Myjai Sanders, EDGE, Cincinnati

The University of Cincinnati has a multitude of prospects to keep an eye on this year, but the best among them is their dynamic pass rusher Myjai Sanders. An underclassman, the junior edge rusher has played himself into potential top-50 territory this season as he has wreaked havoc on opposing backfields for the Bearcats this year.

After a season with six tackles for loss and four sacks in 14 games for the Bearcats a year ago, Sanders has taken another step forward down I-71 for the Bearcats as a Junior. In eight games at the University of Cincinnati this season, Sanders has racked up eight tackles for loss and five sacks on the year. He has been active at the line of scrimmage as well as he has knocked down four passes at the line of scrimmage as well.

As the Browns look for a long-term starter opposite Myles Garrett off the edge in Cleveland, Sanders could be a wonderful option in the second or third round this upcoming April. Olivier Vernon has been splendid as he has been healthy for perhaps the first time since coming to Cleveland. He could play himself into an extension for the future, but getting another young stud must be a priority early in the draft.

Sanders fits the bill as a trip up I-71 could be in his future.
