Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Browns, and a B- to prove it.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jalen Milroe at slot 33, a reach of 62 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Williams where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In slot 2 they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
A big swing on Jalen Milroe at the 33rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick67 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Donovan Jackson at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
They went early on Cam Skattebo in the 94th overall pick, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Nice patience on Savion Williams, who had no business lasting to pick No. 104. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
