Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C-
ValueB NeedA- TradesF FutureC+
A passer of the future in Sanders, and a C-, for the Browns.

Thirty-one other rooms let Ryan Fitzgerald slide, and the Browns were the ones holding the card at pick No. 257. Highway robbery. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C-.

The whole projection now runs through Shedeur Sanders; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In No. 2 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka slipping to the 33rd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer at slot 34 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick94 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to Round 3, Pick 30, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in pick No. 103 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick165 Rnd5 Carson Schwesinger
They barely believed it either: Carson Schwesinger still on the board at No. 165. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick181 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
You do not let a safety like Lathan Ransom reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Terrance Ferguson
A tight end of that caliber at the 216th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
They robbed the room for Jonah Monheim here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at pick 257 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
