Ryker DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns
Draft Grade — Browns
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Browns drew a line under the quarterback search with Simpson: B. After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Browns committed. Ty Simpson is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.
They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 3 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Ty Simpson
In slot 4 they get the face of the franchise. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Jake Slaughter
They paid sticker price for Jake Slaughter in No. 27, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick40
Rnd2
Sonny Styles
No edge and no loss on Sonny Styles in the 40th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick71
Rnd3
Eric Singleton Jr.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Eric Singleton Jr.. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
