In desperate need to rebuild their linebacking corps, the Cleveland Browns selected Chaun Thompson of West Texas A&M with the 52nd pick in the
draft.
The Browns are thin at linebacker after losing all three starters - Earl Holmes, Dwayne Rudd and Jamir Miller - due to salary cap problems.
Thompson was a small-school All-America in his final collegiate season, leading his team with 104 tackles. He also collected two interceptions and
recovered a fumble.
