The Browns selected Utah linebacker Nate Orchard in Friday's second round with the 51st pick in the 2015 NFL Draft.
The Browns received the pick in a trade they made earlier in the night with the Houston Texans.
Orchard (6-foot-3, 250 pounds) posted 18.5 sacks during his senior season with the Utes and led the nation in quarterback knockdowns with 28.
Orchard is the third new addition to the Browns, joining first-round picks Danny Shelton and Cameron Erving.
Former Browns Pro Bowl defensive back Hanford Dixon announced the pick.
