Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Da'Shawn Womack at the 243rd pick. The Browns jumped the board by 67 and dared it to prove them wrong.

However the rest shakes out, Reese at that price is a win they earned. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In the 5th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, and a steal at that.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jaeden Roberts
A wild overpay on Jaeden Roberts in the 40th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71 Rnd3 Austin Siereveld
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Austin Siereveld well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106 Rnd4 Carson Beck
By-the-book stuff, Carson Beck at pick 106 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick143 Rnd5 CJ Baxter
CJ Baxter at pick No. 143 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick145 Rnd5 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg slipping to Round 5, Pick 5 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jaden Greathouse
Jaden Greathouse in pick 149 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick210 Rnd6 Cam Calhoun
They paid sticker price for Cam Calhoun in the 210th overall pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick243 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
Value said wait; Da'Shawn Womack in slot 243 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
