Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Browns won the night they stopped Hunter from sliding. Grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Lee Hunter, the No. 49 name on the board, stolen at Round 7, Pick 32. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick No. 6 they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In slot 26 they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Olaivavega Ioane in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70 Rnd3 Spencer Fano
Steal is underselling it; Spencer Fano at No. 70 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 David Bailey
David Bailey at pick 91 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick107 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
The board fumbled Sonny Styles all the way to Round 4, Pick 7, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jordyn Tyson
You do not let a wide receiver like Jordyn Tyson reach the 126th overall pick and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jermod McCoy
Jermod McCoy at the 146th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kenyon Sadiq
They robbed the room for Kenyon Sadiq here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick206 Rnd6 Chase Bisontis
They will replay Chase Bisontis at Round 6, Pick 25 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick220 Rnd7 Connor Lew
Taking Connor Lew in the 220th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick248 Rnd7 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
