FutureA
The Browns let Marks fall into their laps, and walked away with a A. You could see the war room lean forward. Woody Marks at No. 257 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A to cap it.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
The Tyler Smith pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.
Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
In the 12th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
They robbed the room for Luther Burden III here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick44
Rnd2
Armand Membou
Steal is underselling it; Armand Membou at Round 2, Pick 12 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick67
Rnd3
Alfred Collins
They read the board right and Alfred Collins was the payoff at the 67th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Value with a capital V on Quinshon Judkins in pick No. 76, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick94
Rnd3
Danny Stutsman
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Danny Stutsman for less than the market said. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick103
Rnd4
Jaylin Noel
Good price on Jaylin Noel in pick 103, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick165
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at slot 165 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick181
Rnd6
Dorian Strong
You do not let a cornerback like Dorian Strong reach pick 181 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick194
Rnd6
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at slot 194 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick202
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Luke Lachey in the 202nd pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216
Rnd6
Chase Lundt
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Chase Lundt in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick217
Rnd6
Jaylen Reed
They will replay Jaylen Reed at the 217th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick257
Rnd7
Woody Marks
The board fumbled Woody Marks all the way to No. 257, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
