Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueD- NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureA
Sellers is the Browns' new face under center. Grade: C+.

The war room fell hard for Roderick Kearney, and it showed at the 145th pick: 99 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

LaNorris Sellers gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 LaNorris Sellers
In No. 12 they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
Carnell Tate in slot 26 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Trevor Goosby
A reach on Trevor Goosby in the 40th pick; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
Pick71 Rnd3 Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan at pick 71 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick82 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
They reached a country mile for Zachariah Branch at pick No. 82, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Value said wait; Jermaine Mathews Jr. in Round 4, Pick 6 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick143 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
They reached into another round for Xavier Nwankpa, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Roderick Kearney
Roderick Kearney in the 145th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149 Rnd5 Vincent Anthony Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Vincent Anthony Jr.. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
