FutureA+
The Browns let Hunter fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-. The real work happened on the phones. The Browns fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.
The Hunter pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Reaching for Stribling left real value on the table behind him.
A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Monroe Freeling
In pick 20 they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick24
Rnd1
Chris Brazzell II
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47
Rnd2
Chris Bell
They did well to land Chris Bell in the 47th pick, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77
Rnd3
Lee Hunter
They robbed the room for Lee Hunter here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick92
Rnd3
Malachi Fields
They will replay Malachi Fields at Round 3, Pick 28 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107
Rnd4
Sam Hecht
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Sam Hecht in slot 107, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick112
Rnd4
Chandler Rivers
Steal is underselling it; Chandler Rivers at the 112th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Bud Clark
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Bud Clark at pick No. 113 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116
Rnd4
Treydan Stukes
Taking Treydan Stukes in the 116th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141
Rnd5
Dametrious Crownover
Dametrious Crownover in Round 5, Pick 1 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick146
Rnd5
Beau Stephens
No edge and no loss on Beau Stephens in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick149
Rnd5
Tim Keenan III
They took Tim Keenan III at par in No. 149, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick152
Rnd5
Drew Allar
Drew Allar in pick 152 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick180
Rnd5
Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Nothing to complain about; Kaleb Elarms-Orr went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick206
Rnd6
Jeremiah Wright
They paid sticker price for Jeremiah Wright in the 206th pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick218
Rnd7
Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell at pick No. 218 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248
Rnd7
De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling at No. 248 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
