Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

The Browns spent real capital to be 87 picks early on Stone Handy, and the board is going to hold them to it.

Cam Ward is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. However the rest shakes out, Simon at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In pick 2 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They reached a country mile for Tyleik Williams at the Round 2 slot, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67 Rnd3 Tai Felton
Tai Felton in the 67th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They talked themselves into Ozzy Trapilo at slot 93, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jabbar Muhammad
A big swing on Jabbar Muhammad at the 103rd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick167 Rnd5 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at pick No. 167 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick178 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick191 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
This one needs a full-page explanation: Shilo Sanders in pick 191, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick203 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Donovan Edwards well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick214 Rnd6 Cooper Mays
Cooper Mays in pick No. 214 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick215 Rnd6 Stone Handy
A real head-scratcher, Stone Handy in the 215th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
