Draft Grade — Browns
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB- TradesF FutureC
The Browns got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on J.J. Weaver; the Browns did not wait, grabbing him 179 spots ahead at the 194th overall pick.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The Harvey value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 4th pick they get a featured back. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They took Tyler Booker at par in pick 33, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick38 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at Round 2, Pick 6 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at No. 67 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick103 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
They read the board right and Tez Johnson was the payoff at the Round 4 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 165 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
They paid sticker price for Cobee Bryant in No. 181, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick194 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver in the 194th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 CJ West
A reach for CJ West in the 202nd pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick216 Rnd6 Ty Hamilton
They reached a country mile for Ty Hamilton at pick No. 216, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick217 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
They will replay RJ Harvey at slot 217 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
