Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Browns.

The Browns clearly saw something nobody else did in Shemar Turner, taking him 67 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Brown. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In Round 1, Pick 2 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Restrepo
They robbed the room for Xavier Restrepo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 Garrett Nussmeier
Garrett Nussmeier in the 68th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
They talked themselves into Shemar Turner at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
The board fumbled DJ Giddens all the way to No. 176, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick188 Rnd6 Kobe Hudson
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Kobe Hudson in pick No. 188, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Samuel Brown
They barely believed it either: Samuel Brown still on the board at pick No. 203. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick207 Rnd6 Brennan Presley
They will replay Brennan Presley at the 207th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Denver Harris
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Denver Harris in the Round 7 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick253 Rnd7 Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard in slot 253 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
