Cleveland Browns have seemingly found solid contributors past the first and second rounds of the NFL Draft the past few seasons.
The next one just may be a player that actually comes from the area. While he played his college ball down in Columbus, Ohio State DT Mike Hall Jr. starred at Streetsboro High School, which is just a half hour from Cleveland.
Hall was a productive player for the Buckeyes that is currently showing what he can do at the Senior Bowl down in Mobile, Alabama.

Hall’s best season at Ohio State was as a sophomore when he recorded 7.5 tackles for a loss and 4.5 sacks. As a sophomore, Hall burst into the NFL Draft bubble as a name to watch in 2024.
As a junior, Hall struggled a bit with consistency but was still a good interior player for a Buckeyes team that has multiple NFL-level guys in the middle of their defensive line.
Though he is undersized at 6-foot-2 and 280 pounds, is a stout player that is strong within his frame. He is quick off his initial move and could be really fun to plug into Jim Schwartz’s system in Cleveland.
