Cleveland Browns

The Browns won the night they stopped Sarratt from sliding. Grade: C+.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Browns, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.

Sarratt falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The cost of the Williams reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

So much rides on Kadyn Proctor that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.18 · Pick 18 · Kadyn Proctor · OT · rank 14
In the 18th pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
R1.24 · Pick 24 · Jermod McCoy · CB · rank 18
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jermod McCoy in the 24th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Antonio Williams · WR · rank 64
The board had cheaper options than Antonio Williams at pick No. 47, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Domonique Orange · DT · rank 77
By-the-book stuff, Domonique Orange at pick 70 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
R3.18 · Pick 82 · Kamari Ramsey · S · rank 74
Kamari Ramsey slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 18 is lovely value for the safety. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.33 · Pick 97 · Elijah Sarratt · WR · rank 76
Elijah Sarratt in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.7 · Pick 107 · Carson Beck · QB · rank 120
They went early on Carson Beck in No. 107, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.13 · Pick 113 · Darrell Jackson Jr. · DT · rank 102
Darrell Jackson Jr. at the 113th pick is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.25 · Pick 206 · Vincent Anthony Jr. · DE-EDGE · rank 223
A reach for Vincent Anthony Jr. in Round 6, Pick 25; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.33 · Pick 214 · Jimmy Rolder · LB · rank 215
No drama and no debate, Jimmy Rolder went about where he belonged in pick 214. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R7.32 · Pick 248 · Daevin Hobbs · DL · rank 265
They jumped the gun on Daevin Hobbs, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
