jmiller18 DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Browns for Sampson: B. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Dylan Sampson, the 163rd pick, roughly 114 picks past where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B.
They will need Howard to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Travis Hunter
In the 2nd pick they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at slot 67 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick94
Rnd3
Will Howard
Will Howard at pick 94 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick102
Rnd4
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Somehow Demetrius Knight Jr. was still sitting there in pick No. 102, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick163
Rnd5
Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at the 163rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
