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

Somebody took the Browns to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. Put together, it is a D+.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. However the rest shakes out, Wohler at that price is a win they earned. The Browns paired the rookies with proven help, L'Jarius Sneed leading the way.

Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
Abdul Carter at the Round 1 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A slide stopped in slot 39, with Kenneth Grant worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59 Rnd2 Aeneas Peebles
Good price on Aeneas Peebles in pick No. 59, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick71 Rnd3 Riley Leonard
No drama and no debate, Riley Leonard went about where he belonged in the 71st overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick103 Rnd4 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler slipping to the 103rd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sonny Styles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd5 Bear Alexander
They did well to land Bear Alexander in pick 135, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick167 Rnd6 Mason Taylor
They took Mason Taylor at par in No. 167, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187 Rnd6 Moose Muhammad III
By-the-book stuff, Moose Muhammad III at pick 187 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick199 Rnd7 Carson Hinzman
Carson Hinzman in pick No. 199 is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
