Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Browns and Brooks: B.

The board owed the Browns one, and it paid up: Tahj Brooks, the No. 116 name on the board, sitting there at the 215th pick like a gift left on the doorstep. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They are betting Griffith proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
No edge and no loss on Abdul Carter in slot 5; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick36 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Nice patience on Kenneth Grant, who had no business lasting to the 36th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They talked themselves into Charles Grant at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick93 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Circle this one: TreVeyon Henderson at pick No. 93 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103 Rnd4 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill in pick 103 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick166 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
Somehow Chris Paul Jr. was still sitting there in the 166th pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick180 Rnd6 Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks at No. 180 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick187 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at Round 6, Pick 12. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick205 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on DJ Campbell. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick214 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
A real head-scratcher, Thor Griffith in pick No. 214 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
Taking Tahj Brooks in slot 215 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
