Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesC FutureB-
The jury is out on the Browns. For now, C+.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Browns did exactly that with Will Kacmarek in the 250th pick. It nets out a thoroughly average C+.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Murdock falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Hit on Makai Lemon and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In No. 13 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In pick No. 24 they get a cornerstone up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick29 Rnd1 Omar Cooper Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick70 Rnd3 Brian Parker II
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Brian Parker II well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick93 Rnd3 Devin Moore
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Devin Moore at Round 3, Pick 29. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at slot 107 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick139 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams at pick 139 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick144 Rnd5 Louis Moore
They liked Louis Moore enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 144. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
No drama and no debate, Tanner Koziol went about where he belonged in slot 147. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
Value said wait; Pat Coogan in pick No. 167 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick204 Rnd6 Red Murdock
A tidy bit of business in the 204th overall pick, where Red Murdock graded well above the range. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick248 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
A reach for Nolan Rucci in Round 7, Pick 32; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick250 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
