The Browns landed square in the muddy middle: C+. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Pat Coogan at the 147th pick is 27 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. It washes out to a C+, no better and no worse.
That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.
They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Carnell Tate
In No. 13 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick29
Rnd1
Olaivavega Ioane
In pick No. 29 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Sonny Styles
No edge and no loss on Sonny Styles in pick 39; it is a wash and a sensible one. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick61
Rnd2
Carter Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Carter Smith this early at slot 61. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70
Rnd3
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at the 70th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick93
Rnd3
Blake Miller
Blake Miller at Round 3, Pick 29 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick139
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at Round 5, Pick 1 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144
Rnd5
Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at No. 144 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147
Rnd5
Pat Coogan
A wild overpay on Pat Coogan in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick204
Rnd6
De'Zhaun Stribling
No drama and no debate, De'Zhaun Stribling went about where he belonged in the 204th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248
Rnd7
Jamari Lyons
They went early on Jamari Lyons in slot 248, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
