Draft Grade — Browns
Overall
A-
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Browns a A-. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Browns took EJ Smith a full 199 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Getting Starks where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick36
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Emeka Egbuka at the Round 2 slot is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick39
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks slid further than he should have, and No. 39 is lovely value for the safety. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick44
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at Round 2, Pick 12 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick67
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, TreVeyon Henderson at pick 67. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick72
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
Fair-plus on Elic Ayomanor, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in the 76th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88
Rnd3
Barrett Carter
They let Barrett Carter come to them and pounced at pick 88. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick94
Rnd3
Deone Walker
A quiet steal in the 94th overall pick: Deone Walker for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick104
Rnd4
Zy Alexander
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Zy Alexander. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
They took Emery Jones Jr. at par in No. 119, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick148
Rnd5
Mitchell Evans
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mitchell Evans in Round 5, Pick 10. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick149
Rnd5
Logan Brown
They did well to land Logan Brown in the 149th pick, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick179
Rnd6
JJ Pegues
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on JJ Pegues. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick192
Rnd6
CJ West
CJ West in pick No. 192 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200
Rnd6
Caleb Rogers
A straight-up fair deal on Caleb Rogers at slot 200, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216
Rnd6
Shemar James
Shemar James in the 216th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick233
Rnd7
Drew Kendall
A real head-scratcher, Drew Kendall in No. 233 is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick240
Rnd7
Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks at the 240th pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick255
Rnd7
EJ Smith
They reached into another round for EJ Smith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
