Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Simpson headlines a B- weekend for the Browns.

The Browns spent the pick that matters most on Ty Simpson, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Every board in the league had Barber lower, and that gap is the story. The Harvey pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
In Round 1, Pick 6 they get a passer to set the clock by, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon at the 39th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Austin Barber
This one needs a full-page explanation: Austin Barber in pick No. 70, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick107 Rnd4 Julian Neal
No edge and no loss on Julian Neal in pick 107; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kaytron Allen
Kaytron Allen at No. 141 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick146 Rnd5 Malik Benson
Nothing to complain about; Malik Benson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick149 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
A reasonable price with a little left over, Skyler Gill-Howard in slot 149. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick206 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
A conviction pick on Raylen Wilson at the Round 6 slot that the board grades a round light. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick248 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey in slot 248 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
