Browns sign second-rounder Corbett, two other picks

[May 07, 2018]    The Cleveland Browns have started getting their bounty of draft picks under contract, beginning with offensive lineman Austin Corbett, the first pick of the second round.

The former Nevada lineman started the final 48 games of his college career, playing both left and right tackle.

The Browns also announced that the team had complete deals for sixth-rounders Damion Ratley, a wide receiver out of Texas A&M, and Simeon Thomas, a defensive back out of Louisiana-Lafayette.

Terms of the deals were not announced.

The Browns still have six picks from the 2018 NFL Draft to get under contract, most notably No. 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield and No. 4 overall pick Denzel Ward.

Ward, the former Ohio State Buckeyes cornerback, missed Saturday's rookie minicamp practice with a hip injury.
