Big Kowl DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns

Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

TradesA-
FutureB+
The Browns checked most of the boxes and earned a B+. The rest of the league had time to spare on Jalen Thompson; the Browns did not wait, grabbing him 69 spots ahead at No. 235.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Hubbard. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jordyn Tyson
In pick No. 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26
Rnd1
Avieon Terrell
In slot 26 they get a press-man option on the boundary, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at the 40th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick54
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
A clean, defensible pick in the 54th overall pick with a little surplus value in Olaivavega Ioane. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick71
Rnd3
LaNorris Sellers
Nice patience on LaNorris Sellers, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84
Rnd3
Eric Singleton Jr.
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 20: Eric Singleton Jr. for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87
Rnd3
Cayden Green
Cayden Green at No. 87 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick106
Rnd4
Chandler Rivers
Chandler Rivers in pick No. 106 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123
Rnd4
Monroe Freeling
A straight-up fair deal on Monroe Freeling at the 123rd pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick143
Rnd5
Tao Johnson
They read the board right and Tao Johnson was the payoff at slot 143. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick145
Rnd5
Blake Miller
The board had Blake Miller higher than pick 145, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick149
Rnd5
Demond Claiborne
A reasonable price with a little left over, Demond Claiborne in the 149th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160
Rnd5
Eric Rivers
Eric Rivers is a better player than Round 5, Pick 20 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162
Rnd5
Bray Hubbard
A safety of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210
Rnd6
Kalil Alexander
They reached into another round for Kalil Alexander, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick235
Rnd7
Jalen Thompson
A wild overpay on Jalen Thompson in the 235th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick243
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
A real head-scratcher, Dominic Zvada in No. 243 is miles ahead of his ranking. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
