FutureB-
The Browns lost the trade table, and the D tells the story. Nobody else had EJ Smith anywhere near pick No. 255. The Browns did, by 199 spots, and that gap is the whole story.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Warren falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Nice patience on Tyler Warren, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 1. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick34
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kenneth Grant in slot 34. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick35
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 35th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick36
Rnd2
Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at pick 36 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick39
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
A tidy bit of business in No. 39, where Malaki Starks graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick41
Rnd2
Josaiah Stewart
They paid a round early for Josaiah Stewart in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick49
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
No edge and no loss on TreVeyon Henderson in the 49th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick66
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Donovan Jackson at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick67
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
They took Elic Ayomanor at par in pick 67, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
No drama and no debate, Mason Taylor went about where he belonged in No. 72. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76
Rnd3
Deone Walker
They liked Deone Walker enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 76. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in Round 3, Pick 30 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick97
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
The board had Andrew Mukuba higher than the 97th overall pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103
Rnd4
Tez Johnson
They did well to land Tez Johnson in pick No. 103, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick104
Rnd4
Denzel Burke
A conviction pick on Denzel Burke at the 104th pick that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Value said wait; Jake Majors in No. 105 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick120
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
They paid sticker price for Emery Jones Jr. in pick 120, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in slot 139 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick141
Rnd5
Jason Marshall Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jason Marshall Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick151
Rnd5
Logan Brown
A reasonable price with a little left over, Logan Brown in the 151st overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick154
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
Good price on Pat Bryant in pick No. 154, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick167
Rnd5
Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at Round 5, Pick 29 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick179
Rnd6
Addison West
Addison West at slot 179 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick192
Rnd6
Drew Kendall
This one needs a full-page explanation: Drew Kendall in the 192nd overall pick, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200
Rnd6
Shemar James
A wild overpay on Shemar James in the 200th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick216
Rnd6
Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan in No. 216 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick226
Rnd7
Cooper Mays
They reached a country mile for Cooper Mays at Round 7, Pick 10, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233
Rnd7
Eli Cox
They reached into another round for Eli Cox, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236
Rnd7
Ja'Corey Brooks
Nothing to complain about; Ja'Corey Brooks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240
Rnd7
Xzavier Henderson
They talked themselves into Xzavier Henderson at pick No. 240, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick241
Rnd7
De'Corian Clark
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for De'Corian Clark. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick246
Rnd7
Moliki Matavao
They left a pile of value on the table to take Moliki Matavao this early at Round 7, Pick 30. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251
Rnd7
Junior Tafuna
Junior Tafuna at pick 251 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255
Rnd7
EJ Smith
EJ Smith at pick No. 255 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick257
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders in the 257th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
