Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Browns: B-.

Some picks age like wine; Zen Michalski at slot 248 will need to, sitting 52 spots clear of his grade.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That Kitselman pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Kadyn Proctor
In pick No. 6 they get a blindside protector, even if it was a touch early.
Pick24 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In slot 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in pick 39 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick70 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
A reasonable price with a little left over, Germie Bernard in the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
A reach for Jaeden Roberts in the 107th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick139 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens in Round 5, Pick 1 is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor at Round 5, Pick 6 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson at No. 147 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick204 Rnd6 Miles Kitselman
Value with a capital V on Miles Kitselman in pick No. 204, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Zen Michalski
They talked themselves into Zen Michalski at the 248th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
