Draft Grade — Browns

Larceny in slot 165 lands the Browns a B, Judkins and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Quinshon Judkins tumbling to the Browns in No. 165 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

They will need Rourke to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick 2 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in No. 33 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick67 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Circle this one: Tyleik Williams at pick No. 67 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius in the Round 3 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103 Rnd4 Kurtis Rourke
They reached a country mile for Kurtis Rourke at the 103rd overall pick, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at Round 5, Pick 28 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick181 Rnd6 Ricky White III
A wild overpay on Ricky White III in slot 181, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick194 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Smael Mondon Jr. reach the 194th pick and blink. They did not. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick202 Rnd6 Mitchell Evans
The board fumbled Mitchell Evans all the way to pick No. 202, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick216 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Hayden Conner at Round 6, Pick 41. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
They paid up for Seth McLaughlin at the Round 7 slot when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
