The Browns found their guy under center in Dart: C+. Nobody else had Max Brosmer anywhere near slot 194. The Browns did, by 96 spots, and that gap is the whole story.
Martinez falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. So much rides on Jaxson Dart that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.
In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at the 33rd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick49
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at No. 49 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67
Rnd3
Sai'vion Jones
A big swing on Sai'vion Jones at pick 67, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76
Rnd3
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Demetrius Knight Jr. at the 76th overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94
Rnd3
Dillon Gabriel
They reached a country mile for Dillon Gabriel at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103
Rnd4
Tez Johnson
The board had Tez Johnson higher than the Round 4 slot, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick167
Rnd5
Rylie Mills
Somehow Rylie Mills was still sitting there in pick 167, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174
Rnd5
Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in No. 174 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick181
Rnd6
Theo Wease Jr.
Value said wait; Theo Wease Jr. in the 181st pick says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick194
Rnd6
Max Brosmer
Max Brosmer in slot 194 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202
Rnd6
Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at the 202nd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick216
Rnd6
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in Round 6, Pick 38 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick217
Rnd6
DJ Campbell
A premium they did not need to pay, DJ Campbell a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick243
Rnd7
Damien Martinez
Taking Damien Martinez in slot 243 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick249
Rnd7
Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick257
Rnd7
Alijah Clark
Alijah Clark slid further than he should have, and pick No. 257 is lovely value for the safety. It fills a real need, too.
