Draft Grade — Browns
Overall
D-

TradesF
FutureB-
The Browns bled value on every deal, hence the D-. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Chico Bennett Jr. at pick No. 247, a reach of 216 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A D- that will need time and luck to look better.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. That Loveland pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
They read the board right and Kenneth Grant was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 1. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick52
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Taking Malaki Starks in the 52nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick53
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
A straight-up fair deal on TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick56
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
A reach for Donovan Jackson in the 56th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick58
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at No. 58 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick60
Rnd2
Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in slot 60 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick63
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
Steal is underselling it; Colston Loveland at Round 2, Pick 31 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick66
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
No drama and no debate, Elic Ayomanor went about where he belonged in No. 66. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick67
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
They paid up for Mason Taylor at pick 67 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick80
Rnd3
Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick82
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at the 82nd overall pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in slot 89 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick92
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
They will replay Elijah Arroyo at pick No. 92 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick93
Rnd3
Shemar Turner
Nice patience on Shemar Turner, who had no business lasting to the 93rd pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jalen Milroe
They took Jalen Milroe at par in Round 3, Pick 30, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick95
Rnd3
Quinn Ewers
No edge and no loss on Quinn Ewers in slot 95; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
A big swing on Emery Jones Jr. at pick 104, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108
Rnd4
Denzel Burke
They paid a round early for Denzel Burke in pick No. 108, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick109
Rnd4
Sai'vion Jones
Value said wait; Sai'vion Jones in No. 109 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112
Rnd4
Oluwafemi Oladejo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Oluwafemi Oladejo well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121
Rnd4
Mitchell Evans
They reached a country mile for Mitchell Evans at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. The roster fit checks out.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the 130th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick131
Rnd4
Cobee Bryant
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cobee Bryant in the 131st pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132
Rnd4
Tai Felton
Tai Felton at the 132nd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick133
Rnd4
Seth McLaughlin
They talked themselves into Seth McLaughlin at slot 133, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick137
Rnd4
Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at Round 4, Pick 35 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick143
Rnd5
Andres Borregales
The board had cheaper options than Andres Borregales at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick170
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
Somehow Tyler Shough was still sitting there in No. 170, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick171
Rnd5
Addison West
Addison West in pick No. 171 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick172
Rnd5
Joshua Gray
They reached into another round for Joshua Gray, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick173
Rnd5
Jack Nelson
By-the-book stuff, Jack Nelson at pick No. 173 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick175
Rnd5
Caleb Rogers
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Caleb Rogers. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177
Rnd6
Drew Kendall
They left a pile of value on the table to take Drew Kendall this early at the Round 6 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick179
Rnd6
Ollie Gordon II
A clean, defensible pick in Round 6, Pick 3 with a little surplus value in Ollie Gordon II. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick196
Rnd6
CJ West
The board had CJ West higher than the 196th overall pick, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200
Rnd6
Jason Marshall Jr.
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jason Marshall Jr.. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213
Rnd6
Howard Cross III
Howard Cross III in No. 213 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick215
Rnd6
Donovan Edwards
Value with a capital V on Donovan Edwards in the 215th pick, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick216
Rnd6
Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks at Round 6, Pick 40 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick226
Rnd7
Jabbar Muhammad
They went early on Jabbar Muhammad in the 226th overall pick, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick244
Rnd7
Shemar James
Shemar James at pick 244 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick247
Rnd7
Chico Bennett Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Chico Bennett Jr. in the 247th pick, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251
Rnd7
Rashod Owens
Rashod Owens at pick No. 251 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255
Rnd7
EJ Smith
EJ Smith at slot 255 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at No. 257 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
