Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Browns for Majors: C.

The Browns did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Jake Majors fell into the Round 6 slot. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.

The cost of the Badger reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In No. 7 they get a workhorse for the backfield at fair value.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
They jumped the gun on Jalen Milroe, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at pick 69 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick93 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
They paid up for Luke Kandra at the 93rd pick when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick98 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Omarr Norman-Lott reach the 98th overall pick and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick99 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Maxwell Hairston. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in Round 4, Pick 4 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick166 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Smael Mondon Jr. in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jake Majors
They barely believed it either: Jake Majors still on the board at slot 183. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Nicholas Singleton
They will replay Nicholas Singleton at Round 6, Pick 12 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Elijah Arroyo
They let Elijah Arroyo come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick213 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
A straight-up fair deal on DJ Campbell at the 213th pick, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215 Rnd7 Fernando Carmona
A real head-scratcher, Fernando Carmona in No. 215 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick242 Rnd7 Elijhah Badger
They reached into another round for Elijhah Badger, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
