Cleveland Browns signed a former SEC standout that the rest of the NFL forgot to take in the 2026 NFL Draft

The Cleveland Browns have been busy following the NFL Draft signing undrafted free agents. One player the Browns are bringing in stood out in the SEC and probably should have been drafted.

The Cleveland Browns went into the 2026 NFL Draft with nine selections scheduled to be made, but came out with 10 players picked due to several trades. The draft is in the rearview and the main focus is now on filling out the roster with undrafted free agents.

Cleveland's first reported UDFA addition was to bring the bother of No. 9 overall pick LT Spencer Fano to town. Pass rusher Logan Fano will compete for a spot on the roster with the Browns, but Fano's addition isn't the only undrafted free agent signing catching attention.

Browns landing Florida's Tyreak Sapp is Cleveland landing what the rest of the NFL may regret not drafting

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Browns have signed former Florida standout Tyreak Sapp as an undrafted free agent. It's a notable signing for the Browns following the draft with a player who very well could have heard his name called.

Sapp was a four-year contributor at Florida as a 6-foot-3, 251-pound pass rusher from the Sunshine State. The Athletic's Dane Brugler had a sixth-round grade on the former Gator, so the value is definitely there for the Browns to get him as a UDFA.

"Sapp looks like a certified dude with his stocky physique, which complements his physical, high-effort play style. He comes off the ball low with a compact punch to jar opponents but lacks a feel for reacting to offensive line movement and is more stack and stick than stack and shed. He isn't a pass-rush technician and lacks the burst to get offensive tackles turned when attempting to win the corner."
