Lostboyrufio DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Browns
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A passer of the future in Simpson, and a B-, for the Browns. Start where it matters. The Browns took Ty Simpson to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
Reaching for Bell left real value on the table behind him. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Landing McAlister that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Ty Simpson
They jumped the gun on Ty Simpson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick24
Rnd1
Denzel Boston
In slot 24 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Emmanuel Pregnon
They took Emmanuel Pregnon at par in pick No. 39, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70
Rnd3
Markel Bell
Markel Bell in No. 70 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick107
Rnd4
Tacario Davis
Tacario Davis at Round 4, Pick 7 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139
Rnd5
Kaytron Allen
A straight-up fair deal on Kaytron Allen at the 139th pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick144
Rnd5
Kyle Louis
They paid sticker price for Kyle Louis in pick 144, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick147
Rnd5
Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves in the Round 5 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick204
Rnd6
Eric McAlister
A quiet steal in the 204th pick: Eric McAlister for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248
Rnd7
Luke Altmyer
Luke Altmyer at No. 248 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
