Draft Grade — Browns
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureA
The Browns robbed the room for Skattebo. Final grade: D.

You could see the war room lean forward. Cam Skattebo at slot 214 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They will need Savaiinaea to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 2nd overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick22 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In pick No. 22 they get a long-term starter on the line, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Circle this one: Omarion Hampton at the 33rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 34 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Tai Felton is a better player than No. 102 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133 Rnd4 Vernon Broughton
A reach for Vernon Broughton in slot 133; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Taking Jake Majors in pick 163 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick190 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Good price on Luke Lachey in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick214 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the 214th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick215 Rnd6 Carson Schwesinger
Steal is underselling it; Carson Schwesinger at pick 215 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
