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

The Browns put a flag in the ground for Adepoju Adebawore, 24 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Landing Boston that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In No. 2 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick26 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
In the 26th pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 Denzel Boston
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Denzel Boston in pick 40, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at pick No. 71 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Sammy Omosigho
A straight-up fair deal on Sammy Omosigho at the 141st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jude Bowry
They will replay Jude Bowry at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick184 Rnd6 Adepoju Adebawore
They left a pile of value on the table to take Adepoju Adebawore this early at No. 184. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jordan Castell
Jordan Castell at Round 6, Pick 27 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick240 Rnd7 Smith Snowden
Smith Snowden at the 240th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
