Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Browns were there to profit. Domani Jackson, the No. 176 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 230.

Every board in the league had Cuevas lower, and that gap is the story. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.13 · Pick 13 · Spencer Fano · OT · rank 10
In pick No. 13 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
R1.24 · Pick 24 · Makai Lemon · WR · rank 11
In slot 24 they get a home-run threat at receiver, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Gabe Jacas · LB-EDGE · rank 52
Gabe Jacas in the 47th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Chase Bisontis · OG · rank 70
They took Chase Bisontis at par in the 70th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
R4.7 · Pick 107 · Chandler Rivers · CB · rank 97
Chandler Rivers in pick 107 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.10 · Pick 110 · Antonio Williams · WR · rank 64
They robbed the room for Antonio Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.6 · Pick 146 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 133
The board had Harold Perkins Jr. higher than Round 5, Pick 6, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R5.9 · Pick 149 · DeMonte Capehart · DT · rank 138
DeMonte Capehart is a better player than the Round 5 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.21 · Pick 161 · VJ Payne · S · rank 196
This one needs a full-page explanation: VJ Payne in the 161st overall pick, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.25 · Pick 206 · Josh Cuevas · TE · rank 245
Josh Cuevas at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.14 · Pick 230 · Domani Jackson · CB · rank 176
They barely believed it either: Domani Jackson still on the board at pick 230. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.32 · Pick 248 · Adam Randall · RB · rank 275
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Adam Randall. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
