Draft Grade — Browns

The Browns cashed the board's mistake on Bryant: A. Thirty-one other rooms let Cobee Bryant slide, and the Browns were the ones holding the card at the 179th pick. Highway robbery. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A to cap it.
Kendall has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The veteran additions, Tyler Smith chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
In the end it comes back to Tetairoa McMillan, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
In No. 13 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick23
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In slot 23 they get a matchup problem out wide, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 33 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66
Rnd3
Harold Fannin Jr.
Nice patience on Harold Fannin Jr., who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick67
Rnd3
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Value with a capital V on Demetrius Knight Jr. in pick 67, a genuine coup. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick94
Rnd3
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at Round 3, Pick 30 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick104
Rnd4
Ozzy Trapilo
Taking Ozzy Trapilo in the 104th pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick150
Rnd5
Jordan Phillips
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Jordan Phillips reach the 150th overall pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179
Rnd6
Cobee Bryant
Circle this one: Cobee Bryant at the 179th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192
Rnd6
Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne in the 192nd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200
Rnd6
KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Nothing to complain about; KeAndre Lambert-Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216
Rnd6
Quincy Riley
The board fumbled Quincy Riley all the way to Round 6, Pick 40, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick224
Rnd7
John Williams
A wild overpay on John Williams in slot 224, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255
Rnd7
Drew Kendall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Drew Kendall. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
