The Browns landed square in the muddy middle: C+. It is the swing that defines the weekend: Nathan Pickering in the 206th overall pick, a good 160 spots before the room expected him. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Landing Gore Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.
Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.
Pick Analysis
Pick54
Rnd2
Junior Colson
No edge and no loss on Junior Colson in No. 54; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick85
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at Round 3, Pick 22 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick156
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
No drama and no debate, Sione Vaki went about where he belonged in slot 156. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick206
Rnd6
Nathan Pickering
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nathan Pickering. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick243
Rnd7
Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. slipping to the Round 7 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
