Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Browns fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Browns came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The Zuhn III pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Sellers at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a No. 1 receiver, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jake Slaughter
In slot 27 they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early.
Pick56 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Good price on Dillon Thieneman in pick 56, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71 Rnd3 LaNorris Sellers
They let LaNorris Sellers come to them and pounced at the 71st overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick106 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
A wild overpay on DJ McKinney in No. 106, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick141 Rnd5 Chase Bisontis
A slide stopped in the 141st pick, with Chase Bisontis worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jaden Greathouse
They jumped the gun on Jaden Greathouse, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at pick No. 204 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick216 Rnd7 Mark Fletcher Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Mark Fletcher Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
They paid up for Brett Norfleet at the 244th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
