FutureB+
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Browns: C+. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Browns took Zachariah Branch a full 59 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Slaughter.
Jordan Addison gives the group a proven body among the projects.
So much rides on Spencer Fano that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Spencer Fano
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick24
Rnd1
Caleb Lomu
In the 24th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
A straight-up fair deal on Olaivavega Ioane at No. 40, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick49
Rnd2
Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch at slot 49 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick70
Rnd3
Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in pick 70 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick107
Rnd4
Eric Rivers
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Eric Rivers well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick139
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
Value said wait; DJ Campbell in slot 139 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick144
Rnd5
Kevin Coleman Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Kevin Coleman Jr. at No. 144 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
