Cleveland Browns pick North Carolina receiver Greg Little with third pick

BEREA, Ohio -- The wideout watch ended for the Browns with their third pick.

They selected North Carolina wide receiver Greg Little with the 59th overall pick acquired from the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday.

Little, 6-2 1/2 and 231 pounds, was one of several Tar Heels suspended in 2010 for accepting improper benefits.

Earlier, the Browns took Pittsburgh defensive end Jabaal Sheard with the 37th overall selection of the second round. 

At 6-3 and 264 pounds and a reputed 40 speed of 4.68 seconds, Sheard fits the physical profile preferred by General Manager Tom Heckert for his defensive ends.
