Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

ValueC-
NeedB
TradesA
FutureA+
The Browns did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B+. The Browns looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Brian Ugwu at No. 216 regardless, 203 picks early. No fireworks, but a solid B+.
Schwesinger falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Adding Amarius Mims by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen at the 17th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick33
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
The board had cheaper options than Jonah Savaiinaea at slot 33, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick49
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at Round 2, Pick 17 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jalen Milroe
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jalen Milroe well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick81
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Carson Schwesinger in the 81st pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick94
Rnd3
Devin Neal
They paid sticker price for Devin Neal in pick No. 94, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick159
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
They left a pile of value on the table to take JJ Pegues this early at the 159th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Maxen Hook
Maxen Hook at No. 174 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick179
Rnd6
Connor Colby
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Connor Colby. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
They jumped the gun on Jay Higgins, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick200
Rnd6
Brandon Adams
A big swing on Brandon Adams at pick 200, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick216
Rnd6
Brian Ugwu
They reached a country mile for Brian Ugwu at the 216th pick, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick237
Rnd7
Torricelli Simpkins III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Torricelli Simpkins III in Round 7, Pick 21, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick239
Rnd7
Tommy Mellott
Tommy Mellott in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick255
Rnd7
Xzavier Henderson
Value said wait; Xzavier Henderson in pick No. 255 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
