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

The Browns put a flag in the ground for Jalen Thompson, 59 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The Lance value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In No. 12 they get a downhill hitter at safety, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick26 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
A clean, defensible pick in the 26th pick with a little surplus value in Carnell Tate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick40 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
No edge and no loss on Olaivavega Ioane in pick No. 40; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71 Rnd3 Xavier Chaplin
They liked Xavier Chaplin enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 7. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
No drama and no debate, Sam Leavitt went about where he belonged in slot 76. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at the Round 4 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143 Rnd5 Logan Jones
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Logan Jones. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
A reach for DeMonte Capehart in Round 5, Pick 5; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance at pick 149 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick210 Rnd6 Josh Moten
A reasonable price with a little left over, Josh Moten in the 210th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jalen Thompson
They reached a country mile for Jalen Thompson at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
