Andronus DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns

Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

FutureA
The Browns robbed the room for Stewart. Final grade: D+. Call it larceny. Josaiah Stewart sat on the board until the Round 7 slot, and the Browns did not need to be asked twice. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Travis Hunter
In No. 14 they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Cam Ward
Cam Ward at the 33rd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick45
Rnd2
Ashton Jeanty
You do not let a running back like Ashton Jeanty reach Round 2, Pick 13 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57
Rnd2
Armand Membou
They will replay Armand Membou at pick 57 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67
Rnd3
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in the 67th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick74
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Elic Ayomanor graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
They robbed the room for Jihaad Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick95
Rnd3
Jaxson Dart
Circle this one: Jaxson Dart at pick No. 95 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104
Rnd4
Will Howard
Will Howard at slot 104 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111
Rnd4
Donovan Jackson
They barely believed it either: Donovan Jackson still on the board at Round 4, Pick 9. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick133
Rnd4
Mason Taylor
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Mason Taylor in the 133rd overall pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140
Rnd5
T.J. Sanders
Steal is underselling it; T.J. Sanders at pick No. 140 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick146
Rnd5
Azareye'h Thomas
Taking Azareye'h Thomas in pick 146 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick163
Rnd5
Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179
Rnd6
Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow at No. 179 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick192
Rnd6
Jake Majors
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 192nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick200
Rnd6
Logan Brown
Somehow Logan Brown was still sitting there in the 200th pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick216
Rnd6
Trey Amos
The board fumbled Trey Amos all the way to pick 216, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick226
Rnd7
Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart at pick No. 226 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick230
Rnd7
Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in Round 7, Pick 14 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251
Rnd7
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in the 251st overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255
Rnd7
Addison West
The board fumbled Addison West all the way to the Round 7 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick257
Rnd7
Sai'vion Jones
Somehow Sai'vion Jones was still sitting there in No. 257, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
