The Cleveland Browns have officially signed all of their 2024 draft picks.

On Friday, second-round pick Mike Hall Jr. put pen to paper on his rookie contract. The Ohio State product was the one outstanding member of Cleveland's rookie class to sign his deal. Now all six members of their 2024 class are locked up.

The 54th overall pick is slated to make $7.069 million over the length of the four-year deal. The contract features a signing bonus of $1.9 million.

Despite being unsigned, Hall Jr. has been actively participating in the team's OTAs over the last three weeks, as well as rookie minicamp before that.

Earlier this week, new defensive line coach Jacques Cesaire raved about Hall's skillset.

"Mike's been great," Cesaire said. "He's been real serious and just all about ball. He's explosive. He knows how to rush already. We're tweaking some things right now with him, but he's physical, he's fast. I love the way he's cornering right now, and he's just scratching the surface of what he can do for us in this defense."

A native of Streetsboro, Ohio, Hall compiled 45 tackles, 10.0 tackles-for-loss and six sacks over the course of three seasons at Ohio State. In his finals season with the Buckeyes, Hall recorded a career high 24 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 12 games, on way to earning Third-Team All-Big Ten honors.
