Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Browns to a C-.

Somebody took the Browns to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C-.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

So much rides on Kelvin Banks Jr. that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In slot 9 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Fair-plus on Omarion Hampton, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick67 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
No edge and no loss on Omarr Norman-Lott in pick 67; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick93 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They paid sticker price for Savion Williams in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
No drama and no debate, Jalen Milroe went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 30. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick No. 104 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick167 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill in the 167th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper at the 200th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. in slot 254 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
