Linebacker Joe Schobert left for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the Browns needed linebacker help anyway. Oklahoma’s Kenneth Murray is the top guy at this selection.

Murray was an excellent player for the Sooners and a great coverage guy for the pros. He’s a solid prospect who’s a very strong tackler.

Murray could stand to get better at shedding blocks, but he physically has the skills needed to develop there. He has some skills to build on, however, and his 17 tackles for loss show how he could be a big threat if he gets even better in that regard.

All in all, Murray would be a very solid selection around this area in the NFL Draft.
