Round 6: Tanzel Smart, DT – Tulane – 6-1, 296 lbs.
5.5 sacks (18.9 percent), 18.5 tackles for loss (21.2 percent)
Age: 22 (Born Nov. 6, 1994)
40-Yard Dash: 5.24s (Estimated 5.15s at Pro Day)

Short Shuttle: 4.4s
Vertical: 27″
Broad Jump: 8’9″
Bench Press: 22 reps
Smart led his team in tackles for loss and sacks. His explosion at the combine was not ideal, but it wasn’t a deal breaker either and his agility is impressive. The other part that could work in Smart’s favor is the fact he was at the Senior Bowl and coached by the Browns, spending a lot of time with their new defensive line coach Authentic Orlando Brown Jr. Jersey , Clyde Simmons.
Smart had a good week, is charismatic and brings a lot of energy. Especially on Day 3 of the draft, position coaches may have a greater influence on who the team picks, so Simmons may opt to make the case for picking Smart if he hasn’t already.
Smart is an active 3-tech defensive tackle that knows how to play wide and takes up space against the run, but shows the ability to get skinny and slip through holes when he wants to get after the quarterback.

The Browns don’t really need a strong safety, but the effort they put in trying to sign free agent Tony Jefferson means they’re at least open to the idea if the right opportunity comes along. Luani is a strong safety that has the ability to make plays behind the line of scrimmage as well as in pass coverage.
He’s a terrific athlete that represented America Samoa in their first FIFA-sanctioned soccer victory over Tonga and scored a pair of goals and his footwork shows it. Luani has a ton of ability but needs to be consistent, especially when it comes to tackling. He is up and down to say the least and needs substantial technical work.

How it happened.
Beyond simply getting the best player in the entire draft in Myles Garrett, the early impact players are largely on the defensive side of the ball. Of the eight defensive players selected, five of them could see significant playing time from the jump this coming season.
The Browns have a talented set of linebackers and it’s all about really upping the talent l. Authentic Womens Kyzir White Jersey , Authentic Womens Harold Landry Jersey , Authentic Womens Jeff Locke Jersey , Authentic Womens Michael Dickson Jersey ,
