Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureA
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Browns and Cole: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Chris Cole, the 70th overall pick, roughly 43 picks past where he belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

They will need Thompson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Jeremiah Smith
In pick 6 they get a difference-maker at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Clev Lubin
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a problem off the edge, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 KJ Bolden
They barely believed it either: KJ Bolden still on the board at the 39th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70 Rnd3 Chris Cole
The board fumbled Chris Cole all the way to slot 70, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick139 Rnd5 CJ Bailey
No edge and no loss on CJ Bailey in No. 139; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jayden Bellamy
They paid up for Jayden Bellamy at the 144th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jalen Thompson
Jalen Thompson at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204 Rnd6 Andrew Rappleyea
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 204, where Andrew Rappleyea graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick248 Rnd7 Malachi Nelson
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Malachi Nelson. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
