Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Browns.

The Browns looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Red Murdock at the 147th overall pick regardless, 41 picks early. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick 6 they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In the 24th pick they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon at the 39th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
They paid a round early for Omar Cooper Jr. in Round 3, Pick 6, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Good price on Ar'maj Reed-Adams in pick No. 139, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at pick 144 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147 Rnd5 Red Murdock
A big swing on Red Murdock at the 147th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick204 Rnd6 Bud Clark
Bud Clark at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
By-the-book stuff, Trey Zuhn III at pick No. 248 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
