Shawn1485 DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns

Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

The Browns won the night they stopped King from sliding. Grade: A. Call it larceny. Kobe King sat on the board until pick No. 214, and the Browns did not need to be asked twice. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A to cap it.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.
Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Mason Graham
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the defensive front at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks is a better player than slot 33 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick45
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
They read the board right and Harold Fannin Jr. was the payoff at the 45th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67
Rnd3
Kaleb Johnson
They robbed the room for Kaleb Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick80
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at the 80th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick93
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in pick No. 93 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jake Majors at pick 103. It fills a real need, too.
Pick167
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
No drama and no debate, Willie Lampkin went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 30. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at Round 6, Pick 3 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jeffrey Bassa
They will replay Jeffrey Bassa at pick No. 191 for years; that is how good the value is. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick203
Rnd6
Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa slid further than he should have, and slot 203 is lovely value for the safety. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214
Rnd6
Kobe King
Steal is underselling it; Kobe King at the 214th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jaishawn Barham
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jaishawn Barham at No. 215 is the proof. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
