Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB
The Browns let Rourke fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Browns were there to profit. Kurtis Rourke, the No. 122 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 216. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They will need Collins to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
James Pearce Jr. at the 14th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in the 39th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick49 Rnd2 Deone Walker
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Deone Walker reach pick 49 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Josh Conerly Jr.
Somehow Josh Conerly Jr. was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 6, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore slipping to No. 91 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick106 Rnd4 Ollie Gordon II
The board fumbled Ollie Gordon II all the way to slot 106, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick179 Rnd6 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186 Rnd6 Davison Igbinosun
They paid sticker price for Davison Igbinosun in pick No. 186, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick201 Rnd6 Dane Key
They robbed the room for Dane Key here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick215 Rnd7 Julian Fleming
Julian Fleming in the 215th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd7 Kurtis Rourke
Kurtis Rourke in Round 7, Pick 2 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
