Browns draft Oklahoma State DE Emmanuel Ogbah

Statement from the Browns' website.

The Browns kickstarted the 2016 NFL Draft's second round Friday by selecting Oklahoma State defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah with the No. 32 pick.

The pick was the Browns' second of 12 picks in the 2016 NFL. Ogbah joins Baylor wide receiver Corey Coleman (No. 15 overall) as the newest Brown.

Ogbah, a three-year starter at Oklahoma State, amassed 133 tackles, 35.5 tackles for loss and 26.5 sacks. In his junior and final season with the Cowboys, the 6-foot-4, 273-pound prospect notched career-highs of 17.5 tackles for loss and 12.5 sacks.

Ogbah was an All-Big 12 selection in 2014 and impressed at the combine with his athleticism, runnning a 4.67-second 40-yard dash.

“When he’s angry, he’s a powerful force to be reckoned with,” NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said during a broadcast shortly after Ogbah was selected.

Browns legend Paul Warfield announced the pick.
Cleveland holds three more picks tonight in the third round (Nos. 65, 76 and 77).
