Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Browns got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the B-.

Nobody had Jalen Milroe this high, and it is not close. The Browns reached 61 spots to get him at pick 33.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Harvey. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 8 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick No. 8 they get a lead back with juice at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
A big swing on Jalen Milroe at slot 33, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel at the 57th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Value with a capital V on Jayden Higgins in No. 67, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick74 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
No drama and no debate, Elijah Arroyo went about where he belonged in the 74th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick94 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Deone Walker for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Lathan Ransom. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick179 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 3, with Chase Lundt worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick192 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at slot 192 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in the 200th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick216 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
They read the board right and Caleb Rogers was the payoff at the Round 6 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
They took Jaylin Smith at par in pick 255, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
