Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns found their guy under center in Ward: B-.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Browns spent their marquee pick on Cam Ward, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

They will need Oladejo to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Conerly Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In pick No. 2 they get a long-term answer under center. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 2 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67 Rnd3 Josh Conerly Jr.
Josh Conerly Jr. in pick 67 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Oluwafemi Oladejo
A wild overpay on Oluwafemi Oladejo in No. 94, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at the 104th overall pick is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick179 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith in the 179th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick192 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
Somehow RJ Harvey was still sitting there in slot 192, and they pounced on premier running back value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick200 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 24 is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
No edge and no loss on Alijah Huzzie in slot 216; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick255 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
A straight-up fair deal on Tonka Hemingway at the Round 7 slot, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
