Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA
The phones sank the Browns this weekend: C+.

Somebody took the Browns to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Williams.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
A conviction pick on Caleb Lomu at pick No. 22 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick24 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
By-the-book stuff, Olaivavega Ioane at No. 39 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Antonio Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Antonio Williams at the Round 3 slot is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Joe Royer
Joe Royer in the 107th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick140 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor in pick 140 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jalen Stroman
They paid sticker price for Jalen Stroman in the 145th pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis in slot 148 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick205 Rnd6 Peyton Bowen
The board had cheaper options than Peyton Bowen at slot 205, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick248 Rnd7 Ethan O'Connor
Ethan O'Connor slid further than he should have, and the 248th pick is lovely value for the cornerback. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
