Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesC FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Browns: C+.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Browns would have aced it. Pat Coogan at pick 167 is 29 spots clear of where he belonged. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

The Rutledge steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In pick No. 13 they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In the 24th pick they get a long-term starter on the line, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick29 Rnd1 Gennings Dunker
In pick 29 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick70 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in No. 70 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez in Round 3, Pick 29 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
They took Jalon Kilgore at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at Round 5, Pick 1 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A reach on Davison Igbinosun in pick No. 144; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Keylan Rutledge
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 147 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick167 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick186 Rnd6 Kobe Baynes
No drama and no debate, Kobe Baynes went about where he belonged in pick 186. The roster fit checks out.
