Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Browns lost the trade table, and the C+ tells the story.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Browns, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Lomu has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Haulcy.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In pick 18 they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick49 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt in the 49th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick70 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
The board had A.J. Haulcy higher than No. 70, and the safety fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick107 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
No edge and no loss on D'Angelo Ponds in slot 107; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Drew Allar
They did well to land Drew Allar in the 139th pick, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at Round 5, Pick 6 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick147 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in pick No. 147 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
