Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB
Conerly Jr. should have been long gone. The Browns pounced, and earned a A-.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Browns were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Conerly Jr.. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. The veteran additions, Fred Warner chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 19th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
They robbed the room for JT Tuimoloau here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Josh Conerly Jr.
You do not let an offensive lineman like Josh Conerly Jr. reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at slot 177 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick205 Rnd7 Zy Alexander
A tidy bit of business in the 205th overall pick, where Zy Alexander graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
