Cleveland Browns Draft Profile: Virginia Safety Juan Thornhill

The Cleveland Browns have a need in the secondary before they can really learn to fly on defense. Denzel Ward is a fine cornerback, and Damarious Randall was a breath of fresh air at the free safety position last season. Jabrill Peppers has been shipped off to New York in exchange for Odell Beckham Jr. The Browns need a plug and play strong safety and an upgrade over Morgan Burnett. Virginia’s Juan Thornhill could be their guy.

Strengths

First and foremost, Thornhill is an athletic freak and perhaps the most athletic safety in this class.
