Browns sign fifth-round pick Roderick Johnson

The Cleveland Browns have signed offensive lineman Roderick Johnson, a fifth-round pick by the team in the 2017 NFL Draft.

The team announced the move on its website.

Johnson, who is 6-foot-7 and 298 pounds, is at his best in the run game as his long arms and excellent punch help him move defenders off the line of scrimmage. That makes him a natural fit at the tackle position in head coach Hue Jackson’s offensive system. He also comes from a college program in Florida State that runs a pro-style offense.
