Browns Undrafted Free Agent Signings

With the NFL Draft completed, the Cleveland Browns now recruit free agents that went undrafted to fill out their roster ahead of rookie minicamp.
In this story:

The Cleveland Browns, having finished with the 2023 NFL Draft, turn their attention to recruiting players that went undrafted to fill out their 90-man roster.

Last year, West Florida safety D'Anthony Bell was able to make the regular season roster as an undrafted free agent. The Browns just signed a former undrafted free agent corner A.J. Green to his restricted tender.

Two positions that stand out as possibilities to make the team include running back, defensive line and safety. Tight end is another spot that might see someone claim a roster spot.

Undrafted Free Agent Signings

Hassan Hall, RB Georgia Tech

Hassan Hall

Hall led the Yellowjackets in rushing this past year, but whether with Georgia Tech or Louisville, he's never really popped off. A track athlete with excellent speed, Hall offers a speed back that can fit a spread offense with potential viability as a kick returner.

Thomas Greaney, TE Albany

Thomas Greaney

Lonnie Phelps, EDGE Kansas

Lonnie Phelps

Phelps is an explosive edge rusher with remarkable strength for his size. Able to convert speed to power, he can jolt opposing blockers. The issue for Phelps is has poor agility and limited hip flexibility.

Jeremiah Martin, DE Washington

Mohamoud Diabate, LB Utah

After spending three years at Florida, Diabate took over for the outside linebacker role Devin Lloyd played the previous few seasons.

Charlie Thomas, LB Georgia Tech

Charlie Thomas

Former 5-star recruit who was a safety in high school. He might be best served to play in the slot as a safety now and does have experience in that role. Athletic, has experience in coverage and made a ton of plays behind the line of scrimmage.Β 

Caleb Biggers, CB Boise State

Caleb Biggers

Ronnie Hickman, S Ohio State

Age: 21 (Born October 11, 2001)

Production: 26 solo tackles, 7 pass deflections, 1 interception in 2022

Hickman didn't test athletically, which is one of the things that hurt him. The perception was that he would not test well athletically and he never got to prove it one way or the other.

Hickman has a strong production profile and he was effective playing downhill and near the line of scrimmage, scraping almost like a linebacker. He wasn't nearly as effective playing backward and perhaps that could see him get looked at in the slot.

Tanner McAllister, S Ohio State

Tanner McCalister

Former corner who made the move to safety. Has corner movement skills and treads the line between the two positions.

Luq Barcoo, CB XFL

Barcoo most recently played for the San Antonio Brahma Bulls in the XFL. Collegiately, he played for San Diego State and has played in three games in the NFL as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars due to a combination of COVID-19 and injuries. One of those three games was against the Cleveland Browns. Barcoo is 24 years old and is being invited for a tryout.
