Larceny in slot 94 lands the Browns a B, Mukuba and all.

The Browns spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Andrew Mukuba, the No. 69 name on the board, in the Round 3 slot. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
They took Abdul Carter at par in Round 1, Pick 2, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Booker at pick 33, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick67 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in No. 67 with a little surplus value in Demetrius Knight Jr.. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They robbed the room for Andrew Mukuba here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick102 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in slot 102 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
