Ethan Pocic (/ˈpoʊzɪk/ POH-zik[1]) (born August 5, 1995) is an American professional football center for the Cleveland Browns of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the LSU Tigers. Pocic has also played the guard position. He was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the second round of the 2017 NFL draft.

Professional career

[edit | edit source]

Pre-draft

[edit | edit source]

Pocic received an invitation to the Senior Bowl and helped the South defeat the North 16-15. During the Senior Bowl, he met with the San Diego Chargers, Philadelphia Eagles, Cleveland Browns, and Baltimore Ravens.[6] He also attended the NFL Combine and completed all the combine and positional drills. Although he attended LSU's Pro Day, he chose to only run positional drills for scouts and representatives. NFL draft experts and analysts projected Pocic to be a second or third round pick in the 2017 NFL draft. He was ranked the second best center in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com, Sports Illustrated, and ESPN, was ranked the fourth best interior offensive lineman in the draft by NFL analyst Bucky Brooks, and was ranked the fifth best interior offensive lineman by NFL analyst Mike Mayock.[7][8][9][10][11]
