Draft Grade — Browns
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Browns won the night they stopped Abrams-Draine from sliding. Grade: D-.

The Browns lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

With quarterback, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The Abrams-Draine pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 4th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
They paid sticker price for Chop Robinson in pick No. 35, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Maason Smith at DT-EDGE with quarterback, tight end and other spots open.
Pick104 Rnd4 DeWayne Carter
A clean, defensible pick in pick 104 with a little surplus value in DeWayne Carter. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd5 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in No. 138 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick159 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. in pick 159 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
A tidy little value on Jordan Magee in pick No. 205, a step better than break-even. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick208 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams at Round 6, Pick 33 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick231 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in No. 231 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
