Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Browns won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Xavian Sorey Jr. in Round 6, Pick 16, a good 207 spots before the room expected him. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

That Tuten pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

Bottom line, with Tetairoa McMillan leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 8 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Princely Umanmielen
No drama and no debate, Princely Umanmielen went about where he belonged in the 33rd pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick57 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in pick 57 with a little surplus value in Harold Fannin Jr.. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick94 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson in the 94th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102 Rnd4 Will Howard
By-the-book stuff, Will Howard at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick103 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in Round 4, Pick 2 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick119 Rnd4 Cam Jackson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cam Jackson in Round 4, Pick 18, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick142 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mello Dotson. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick165 Rnd5 Teddye Buchanan
They reached into another round for Teddye Buchanan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick181 Rnd6 Kurtis Rourke
They barely believed it either: Kurtis Rourke still on the board at the Round 6 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick194 Rnd6 Xavian Sorey Jr.
Xavian Sorey Jr. in pick 194 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed slipping to slot 202 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
You do not let a running back like Bhayshul Tuten reach the 216th overall pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd6 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III at pick No. 217 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jahvaree Ritzie
They reached a country mile for Jahvaree Ritzie at No. 241, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Ricky White III at slot 257 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
