Draft Grade — Browns
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Browns found their guy under center in Ward: A-.

Call it larceny. Nick Emmanwori sat on the board until No. 144, and the Browns did not need to be asked twice.

Whatever Cam Ward becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Cam Ward and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Cam Ward
By-the-book stuff, Cam Ward at the 6th pick squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick33 Rnd2 Josh Simmons
You do not let an offensive lineman like Josh Simmons reach Round 2, Pick 1 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
They robbed the room for Kenneth Grant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter slid further than he should have, and pick 94 is lovely value for the cornerback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Devin Neal
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Devin Neal in pick No. 103, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick144 Rnd5 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in Round 5, Pick 5 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick165 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
The board fumbled Tez Johnson all the way to No. 165, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in slot 181 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick194 Rnd6 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at the 194th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tommi Hill
They will replay Tommi Hill at the 202nd pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick216 Rnd6 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Circle this one: Antwaun Powell-Ryland at the 216th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
A tidy little value on Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick No. 217, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick257 Rnd7 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
