Minkah Fitzpatrick: I could bring Alabama's winning culture to Browns
Alabama standout Minkah Fitzpatrick spent his college career with the nation's top powerhouse, and now the defensive back wants to bring his winning experience to the NFL's worst team - which holds the first and fourth overall picks in the draft - the Cleveland Browns.
"I think it's just an issue with the culture around there and I'm just going to have to go down there and use what I learned at Alabama and apply it to the Browns," Fitzpatrick said Sunday, according to Dan Labbe of the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The versatile defender - who could play at safety or cornerback at the pro level - likely won't be the first player selected in the draft, but is a strong contender to join Cleveland three picks later.
