Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A
ValueA- NeedA- TradesA FutureA+
A franchise passer in Ward headlines a A weekend for the Browns.

The Browns did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Dylan Fairchild fell into slot 256. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A to cap it.

So much rides on Cam Ward that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Bottom line, with Cam Ward leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In pick 4 they get the arm they will build around at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Princely Umanmielen
A edge rusher of that caliber at No. 44 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick77 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
You do not let an offensive lineman like Wyatt Milum reach the 77th overall pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick81 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
Steal is underselling it; Walter Nolen at pick No. 81 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jahdae Barron
Taking Jahdae Barron in the 94th pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 Ashton Jeanty
The board fumbled Ashton Jeanty all the way to Round 4, Pick 1, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tre Harris
They will replay Tre Harris at slot 163 for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick177 Rnd6 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick 190 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick198 Rnd6 Trey Amos
Somehow Trey Amos was still sitting there in No. 198, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Kyle McCord
They robbed the room for Kyle McCord here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick256 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
Circle this one: Dylan Fairchild at slot 256 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
