The Browns worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-. The Browns went off the board in a big way for Brandon Inniss, 45 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
On value alone, Bernard makes the weekend a net positive.
Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Deontae Lawson
A slide stopped in Round 1, Pick 29, with Deontae Lawson worth more than the price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick39
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jake Slaughter at pick 39 is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick41
Rnd2
Isaiah World
They paid up for Isaiah World at pick No. 41 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick66
Rnd3
Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. at the 66th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick71
Rnd3
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in the 71st pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick73
Rnd3
Germie Bernard
You do not let a wide receiver like Germie Bernard reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102
Rnd3
Kalil Alexander
Kalil Alexander at the 102nd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick109
Rnd4
Charles Jagusah
They took Charles Jagusah at par in pick No. 109, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick141
Rnd5
Brandon Inniss
A wild overpay on Brandon Inniss in pick 141, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick148
Rnd5
Patrick Payton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Patrick Payton this early at the Round 5 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick171
Rnd5
Tristan Leigh
They jumped the gun on Tristan Leigh, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick215
Rnd6
A'Marion Peterson
Nice patience on A'Marion Peterson, who had no business lasting to slot 215. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick224
Rnd7
Jamari Lyons
They reached into another round for Jamari Lyons, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
