Browns' coach heaps praise on Mason Graham

After attending rookie minicamp and OTAs, the Cleveland Browns are excited to see Mason Graham play in games.

Graham had a stellar camp, which blew away the Browns' coaches. Cleveland's defensive line coach, Jacques Cesaire, had a ton of praise for Graham and expects him to have a very successful NFL career.

"I love Mason," Cesaire said, via NFL.com. "The thing I love about Mason, I think everybody heard he ate a little bit too much and he threw up that first day. But what a lot of people are not talking about is that the kid finished. He went back out there, puke and all, and finished the rep.

"But here's a kid that every day he got better. Every day he came out here, he's running to the ball as fast as he could. You see his rush game developing, you see him launching with hands. It's going to be hard obviously coming from a read scheme, going to an attack scheme. But he's done a really good job and he's great in the room, extremely smart individual, hardworking. So I can't wait to see him come out and play."
