The phones sank the Browns this weekend: D-. The rest of the league had time to spare on Hollin Pierce; the Browns did not wait, grabbing him 76 spots ahead at No. 38. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.
On value alone, Sampson makes the weekend a net positive. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In slot 4 they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24
Rnd1
Jahdae Barron
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick28
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In pick 28 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick32
Rnd1
Malaki Starks
In the 32nd pick they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nice patience on Nick Emmanwori, who had no business lasting to the 35th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick37
Rnd2
Deone Walker
Deone Walker in pick No. 37 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick38
Rnd2
Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at Round 2, Pick 6 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick49
Rnd2
Anthony Belton
They talked themselves into Anthony Belton at the Round 2 slot, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick65
Rnd3
Jalon Walker
You do not let a linebacker like Jalon Walker reach slot 65 and blink. They did not. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick73
Rnd3
Kaleb Johnson
They will replay Kaleb Johnson at No. 73 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick97
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor slid further than he should have, and pick 97 is lovely value for the tight end. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick138
Rnd5
Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson in the 138th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
