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

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Browns shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Harvey. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Hit on Ashton Jeanty and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 8 they get a featured back at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Value with a capital V on Colston Loveland in No. 33, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
A straight-up fair deal on Jayden Higgins at the 57th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick67 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They did well to land Donovan Jackson in pick No. 67, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
They took Jalen Milroe at par in Round 3, Pick 30, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They let Kevin Winston Jr. come to them and pounced at pick 104. The roster fit checks out.
Pick179 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
The board had RJ Harvey higher than the Round 6 slot, and the running back fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
No edge and no loss on Tyler Cooper in the 192nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in Round 6, Pick 24 is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick216 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
By-the-book stuff, Alijah Huzzie at No. 216 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick230 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah at pick 230 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick255 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
Nothing to complain about; Zeek Biggers went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
