Draft Grade — Browns
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Browns let Milroe fall into their laps, and walked away with a D.

The phones were a trap the Browns kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

The Milroe steal is the beam this whole class leans on. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. The cost of the Skattebo reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, safety very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 3 they get a disruptor off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick29 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
The board had Emeka Egbuka higher than pick 33, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick34 Rnd2 Mike Green
A tidy little value on Mike Green in slot 34, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
They read the board right and Marcus Mbow was the payoff at the 61st overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick67 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. slipping to the 67th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick79 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 79 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A premium they did not need to pay, Cam Skattebo a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Nice patience on Tez Johnson, who had no business lasting to No. 103. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jalen Milroe
They barely believed it either: Jalen Milroe still on the board at the 148th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick165 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
Circle this one: Shemar Turner at the 165th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick181 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in Round 6, Pick 3 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick194 Rnd6 Addison West
They paid a round early for Addison West in slot 194, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
No edge and no loss on Jack Kiser in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick216 Rnd6 CJ West
CJ West in No. 216 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Somehow Jason Marshall Jr. was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 39, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Value with a capital V on Jake Briningstool in slot 257, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
