Iowradar DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Browns
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A passer of the future in Ward, and a B-, for the Browns. The Browns spent the pick that matters most on Cam Ward, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
If Hassanein pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mukuba. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.
Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Cam Ward
In slot 2 they get the arm they will build around. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
They paid up for Jonah Savaiinaea at Round 2, Pick 1 when waiting would have done the job. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at No. 67 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick94
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba slid further than he should have, and pick No. 94 is lovely value for the safety. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104
Rnd4
David Walker
David Walker in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick179
Rnd6
Jaydon Blue
Nothing to complain about; Jaydon Blue went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick192
Rnd6
Ahmed Hassanein
A wild overpay on Ahmed Hassanein in the 192nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200
Rnd6
Joshua Gray
A straight-up fair deal on Joshua Gray at the 200th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216
Rnd6
Simeon Barrow Jr.
No edge and no loss on Simeon Barrow Jr. in Round 6, Pick 40; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick255
Rnd7
Ty Hamilton
No drama and no debate, Ty Hamilton went about where he belonged in slot 255. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
