Browns waive kicker Brad Craddock, claim kicker Jaden Oberkrom off waivers from Jaguars

The Browns waived undrafted rookie kicker Brad Craddock on Wednesday and claimed undrafted rookie kicker Jaden Oberkrom off waivers from the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Oberkrom made 79 of 100 field goals and 214 of 216 extra-point kicks during his four seasons at TCU.

Last season he converted 21 of 25 field goals, including all three from 50 yards or longer. He was a semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award in each of the past two years.

Travis Coons' tendency to kick the ball low -- four of his field goals were blocked last season -- sparked the Browns' search for an upgrade at the position.
