The Browns selected DT Mason Graham with the fifth overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Graham played three seasons at Michigan, appearing in 39 career games. Over the course of his collegiate career, Graham recorded 108 tackles, 18 tackles for loss, nine sacks, three passes defensed, one fumble recovery and one forced fumble.

He joins a defensive line that features 2023 Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett on the edge, as well as Sam Kamara, Isaiah McGuire, Ogbo Okoronkwo, Julian Okwara, Elerson G. Smith, Cameron Thomas, Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and Alex Wright on the ends. On the interior, Graham joins a unit that consists of Jowon Briggs, Maliek Collins, Mike Hall Jr., Shelby Harris and Ralph Holley.

The Browns added depth to the defensive line during free agency with the signings of Collins, Okwara and Tryon-Shoyinka. Graham’s addition to the unit brings depth to a position that is awaiting the return of Hall, who sustained a knee injury in Week 18 of the 2024 season.
