Caleb Brantley NFL Draft 2017: Scouting Report for Cleveland Browns' Pick

Caleb Brantley started two seasons at Florida and flashed the athletic skills of a future starter. He has experience playing both nose tackle and 3-technique and is a disruptor with excellent offensive line penetration. He has the first-step quickness to make plays behind the line of scrimmage and shock linemen. He's able to stack up blockers and uses his length well. Brantley is a good tackler and won't have an issue bringing down NFL ball-carriers. Brantley makes good use of his hands and understands leverage. A good defensive line coach could turn Brantley into a player, but he will fit best as a rotational pass-rusher who will have to develop into a starter.
