Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureA+
The Browns answered their biggest question with Mestemaker. Grade: A.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Browns spent their marquee pick on Drew Mestemaker, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

Getting Washington where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If Bishop pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Drew Mestemaker
In the 11th overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In pick No. 24 they get a true top target at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Boubacar Traore
They paid sticker price for Boubacar Traore in Round 2, Pick 7, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in pick 70 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick107 Rnd4 Ashton Hampton
Ashton Hampton in slot 107 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd5 Mateen Ibirogba
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mateen Ibirogba. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144 Rnd5 Walker Lyons
Fair-plus on Walker Lyons, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Koi Perich
Circle this one: Koi Perich at the 147th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick197 Rnd6 Payton Pierce
Payton Pierce in the 197th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick204 Rnd6 Sheridan Wilson
They took Sheridan Wilson at par in Round 6, Pick 25, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Xavier Chaplin
No drama and no debate, Xavier Chaplin went about where he belonged in the 226th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick248 Rnd7 DeSean Bishop
A reach for DeSean Bishop in slot 248; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
