Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA
A solid, sensible weekend for the Browns: B-.

The Browns did not so much draft Jalen Milroe as overpay for him, 49 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.

They banked enough surplus on White III to cover a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty slid further than he should have, and the 14th pick is lovely value for the running back. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kenneth Grant in the 33rd overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
They talked themselves into Jalen Milroe at slot 45, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. in the Round 3 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick69 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
No drama and no debate, Cameron Williams went about where he belonged in No. 69. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick77 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
They read the board right and Carson Schwesinger was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 13. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick94 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A straight-up fair deal on Darius Alexander at pick 94, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Will Howard
Nothing to complain about; Will Howard went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick179 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick192 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and JJ Pegues at Round 6, Pick 16 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Upton Stout at No. 200. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick216 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They let Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson come to them and pounced at the 216th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ricky White III
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 255 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
