Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesD FutureA+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Browns: B-.

The Browns treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the Round 5 slot on Adepoju Adebawore a full 67 spots early. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The veteran additions, Jonathan Taylor chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In slot 17 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick22 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
Chris Brazzell II at pick 22 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick34 Rnd2 Caleb Lomu
A conviction pick on Caleb Lomu at Round 2, Pick 2 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick64 Rnd2 Mikail Kamara
They reached a country mile for Mikail Kamara at the 64th pick, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
A big swing on Nicholas Singleton at pick No. 69, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaishawn Barham well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick144 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They reached into another round for DJ Campbell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148 Rnd5 Adepoju Adebawore
Value said wait; Adepoju Adebawore in the 148th pick says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jalen Thompson
A real head-scratcher, Jalen Thompson in No. 241 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick243 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
A wild overpay on Da'Shawn Womack in the 243rd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
