Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A-
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureA
Quarterback settled, Mestemaker in the fold, and a A- for the Browns.

The Browns spent the pick that matters most on Drew Mestemaker, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

They banked enough surplus on Stone to cover a lot of smaller sins. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

They will need Haynes to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Drew Mestemaker
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a long-term answer under center. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Suntarine Perkins
In No. 24 they get juice off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 David Stone
Taking David Stone in slot 39 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jamari Sharpe
Nothing to complain about; Jamari Sharpe went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Marcus Neal Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Marcus Neal Jr. at pick 107. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139 Rnd5 Mateen Ibirogba
No drama and no debate, Mateen Ibirogba went about where he belonged in the 139th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Justice Haynes
They left a pile of value on the table to take Justice Haynes this early at pick No. 144. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick147 Rnd5 Cayden Lee
A reach on Cayden Lee in the Round 5 slot; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick204 Rnd6 Brett Norfleet
They took Brett Norfleet at par in No. 204, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick248 Rnd7 Charles Jagusah
They read the board right and Charles Jagusah was the payoff at pick No. 248. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
