Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Browns: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Browns spent the 173rd overall pick on Joe Milton III, a name most had 25 spots down the list.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That Jones pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick56 Rnd2 Ricky Pearsall
A straight-up fair deal on Ricky Pearsall at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick85 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in slot 85 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick135 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They let Johnny Wilson come to them and pounced at No. 135. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick157 Rnd5 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader in Round 5, Pick 21 lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick 173 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick205 Rnd6 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas at pick No. 205 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick208 Rnd6 Elijah Jones
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Elijah Jones at Round 6, Pick 33 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
A quiet steal in pick 228: Michael Barrett for less than the market said. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick231 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
A wild overpay on Matthew Jones in the 231st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
