"He had an exceptional Senior Bowl week," draft analyst Mike Mayock said on NFL Network. "He's one of the cleanest players in the draft. He plays with a nasty edge. I think this is an outstanding pick. He can get you out of a game at tackle if they want to play him at tackle." Mayock added that Corbett was a former walk-on that became a 3-time captain.
"A kid who can play guard or center," draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. said on ESPN's telecast. "He was part of an offensive line that allowed just 16 sacks and they led the conference with 461 pass attempts. This kid is rock solid, a very underrated player. He drives people off the ball. Good technique, he's a finisher, good hand placement and balance as a pass blocker. The Boise State game, you would think he's a first-round pick. To me, it's a good pick. It's not a high need area for the Browns, but his versatility to play center and guard will make Austin Corbett a player who helps that football team."
