Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Browns this weekend: A-.

The real work happened on the phones. The Browns fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

If James pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In No. 6 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In pick No. 26 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick107 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at the 107th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Good price on Jalon Kilgore in the 113th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick139 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
They liked Davison Igbinosun enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 139. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Jermaine Mathews Jr. in Round 5, Pick 6 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
A tidy little value on Trey Zuhn III in pick 204, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jack Velling
By-the-book stuff, Jack Velling at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick234 Rnd7 Kamran James
They reached a country mile for Kamran James at pick No. 234, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick248 Rnd7 Tony Rojas
Tony Rojas at pick 248 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It adds depth where they could use a little.
