The Cleveland Browns apparently don't feel they need a quarterback.
They took linebacker Carson Schwesinger to start Friday's NFL second round.
Then, at No. 36, they chose Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins.
It's a fun pick for Ohio football fans, for sure. The Buckeyes back stays home.
Judkins played just the national championship season for Ohio State after transferring from Mississippi.
Of course, it was a great year for Judkins, having won a national title.
In three college seasons, Judkins totaled more than 4,000 yards of offense.
Judkins averaged 5.5 yards per carry and had 14 rushing touchdowns in the 2024 season.
He ran for two TDs and had a 70-yard run in the national championship game.

Judkins ranks second in Ole Miss history in rushing touchdowns (31) in just two seasons there after not even finishing his career there.
Now, the quarterback question is raised higher in Cleveland. Maybe it'll be Kenny Pickett's job to lose after all.
Judkins joins Jerome Ford in the Cleveland backfield. Nick Chubb remains a free agent.
"He's made for northern Ohio with his downhill, punishing style," ESPN's Louis Riddick said on the broadcast.
