player. 53. The Cleveland Browns just fired defensive coordinator Ray Horton in favor of Greg Williams. Some probably wonder why a defensive coordinator would get fired after one year with a bad team. But it is as simple as the defensive coordinator’s scheme not fitting the talent.
<p>Emmanuel Ogbah is a freak athlete at 6’4″, 275 pounds, running a 4.6 in the 40-yard dash. But he was a fish out of water in the 3-4 where he had to drop in coverage at times. He still flashed with six sacks on the season but they will get more out of him in the 4-3.</p>
<p>And 2016 third-round pick Carl Nassib, whom the team also likes, will get more of an opportunity. Nose tackle and 2015 first-round pick Danny Shelton can stuff the run from any scheme. Alabama defensive lineman Jonathan Allen would complete the Browns up front immediately.</p>
<p>At 6’3″, 290 pounds, his speed, quickness and power will make him a great three-technique immediately. He was a 3-4 end at Alabama but he is a transcendent player as a three-technique. And with Jamie Collins OLB still there, the Browns would have a solid front-seven on defense.</p>. DT. Alabama. Jonathan Allen. 1
