Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Ward headlines a B weekend for the Browns.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Cam Ward is the Browns' quarterback, full stop. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Walker. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the 2nd overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at pick 33 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick67 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Value with a capital V on TreVeyon Henderson in Round 3, Pick 3, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo slid further than he should have, and slot 94 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick104 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick179 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
No edge and no loss on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in No. 179; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in the 192nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at pick No. 200 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
They let Luke Lachey come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jamon Dumas-Johnson at Round 7, Pick 39 is the proof. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
