Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns answered their biggest question with Ward. Grade: B.

The Browns spent the pick that matters most on Cam Ward, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

Castro falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will need Brooks to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the 2nd overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Good price on Emeka Egbuka in the 33rd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick67 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in No. 67 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Chris Paul Jr. at slot 94. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick104 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro at pick 104 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks at pick No. 179 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick192 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
The board had cheaper options than Nazir Stackhouse at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
No edge and no loss on Luke Lachey in Round 6, Pick 24; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris in the 216th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick255 Rnd7 Sam Brown Jr.
They read the board right and Sam Brown Jr. was the payoff at No. 255. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
