Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Browns.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Browns never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The cost of the Boston reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They banked enough surplus on Stowers to cover a lot of smaller sins.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In pick No. 6 they get a No. 1 receiver, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In pick 24 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in No. 39 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick107 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
They jumped the gun on Bryce Lance, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at the 139th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst in the 144th pick 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.
Pick147 Rnd5 Connor Tollison
A premium they did not need to pay, Connor Tollison a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick204 Rnd6 Bud Clark
A straight-up fair deal on Bud Clark at the 204th pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick248 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nolan Rucci. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
