Mason Graham = Jerry Sherk

To my viewpoint, Jerry Sherk is the greatest Brown I have ever personally sat in the stands and watched.  Just to be clear, I first sat in the stands in the 1970's otherwise I would surely answer Jim Brown was the greatest Brown.   But I only witnessed Jim Brown winning the war in Europe together with Charles Bronson.

When I first watched Mason Graham play for Michigan against Ohio State, I thought to myself - Jerry Sherk.   In other words:  Cat like quickness and a nose for the ball in spite of constant double and triple teaming by the Buckeyes.

Then I learned another parallel:  Graham was a world class wrestler - Just like Jerry Sherk was.

From his alma mater's website:  Jerry Sherk was a two-sport star at Oklahoma State University. He was an All-Big-8 selection on the gridiron as well as an All-American grappler in 1969. In 1970, he was a second round NFL draft pick (47^th overall) by the Cleveland Browns. Jerry was a four-time Pro Bowl Selection and named MVP by the Browns three straight seasons 1974-1976. In 1976, he was named the NFL's Most Valuable Defensive Player of the Year.

well it turns out Mason Graham plays like Jerry Sherk and his wrestling background is no small coincidence.  The Browns have drafted a stud who is going to help turn this team around!
