It doesn't look like a Cicada to me. I think maybe some kind of Katydid or grasshopper of some kind. As suggested above I think this is a Common True Katydid. I'm not sure, but although they are normally vibrant green, some are darker, and also, I think death causes them to brown. Here is a picture of a dead mounted one that resembles yours: https://bugguide.net/node/view/92806/bgi...
