Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

FutureB
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Browns and Milton III: D+. Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Browns, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. Hard to defend, and the D+ reflects that.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Milton III. Zay Jones gives the group a proven body among the projects.
Job largely done: quarterback settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick55
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at Round 2, Pick 23 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick68
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in pick No. 68, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in pick 110 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick122
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
They did well to land Kris Abrams-Draine in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick138
Rnd5
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at the 138th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick146
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
No drama and no debate, Braelon Allen went about where he belonged in No. 146. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick159
Rnd5
Layden Robinson
No edge and no loss on Layden Robinson in No. 159; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick182
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Circle this one: Joe Milton III at the 182nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick205
Rnd6
Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams slipping to pick No. 205 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick210
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick 210 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231
Rnd7
Mark Perry
By-the-book stuff, Mark Perry at Round 7, Pick 11 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
