Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Browns, and a B- to prove it.

The Browns looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jamari Lyons at the 204th overall pick regardless, 55 picks early. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Reese value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick No. 6 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 24th overall pick they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick39 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
By-the-book stuff, Olaivavega Ioane at the 39th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70 Rnd3 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at No. 70 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick107 Rnd4 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams at Round 4, Pick 7 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A reach for Davison Igbinosun in pick 139; a little patience would have been rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ted Hurst. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick147 Rnd5 Red Murdock
A wild overpay on Red Murdock in slot 147, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jamari Lyons
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jamari Lyons well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick248 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
This one needs a full-page explanation: Roman Hemby in the 248th pick, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
