Draft Grade — Browns
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The jury is out on the Browns. For now, C+.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Browns started one anyway for Javion Cohen, 43 picks ahead of schedule. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

If Jaylen Wright and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick54 Rnd2 Jaylen Wright
No drama and no debate, Jaylen Wright went about where he belonged in the 54th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick85 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at pick No. 156 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick206 Rnd6 KT Leveston
A reach for KT Leveston in Round 6, Pick 31; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
A reasonable price with a little left over, JD Bertrand in No. 227. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick243 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
They reached into another round for Brevyn Spann-Ford, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
