Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesD- FutureB-
The Browns let Skattebo fall and pounced. Final grade: C+.

Call it larceny. Cam Skattebo sat on the board until No. 165, and the Browns did not need to be asked twice. It nets out a thoroughly average C+.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Good price on Ashton Jeanty in pick 6, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick33 Rnd2 Armand Membou
A straight-up fair deal on Armand Membou at pick No. 33, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick67 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
They paid sticker price for Tate Ratledge in the 68th overall pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick73 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at Round 3, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Elijah Arroyo in No. 94. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
Nothing to complain about; Quinn Ewers went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the 165th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick181 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at No. 181 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick194 Rnd6 Ricky White III
They went early on Ricky White III in Round 6, Pick 16, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in pick 202 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Value with a capital V on Jordan Hancock in pick No. 216, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick217 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Somehow Antwane Wells Jr. was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick257 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
Cody Lindenberg at slot 257 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
