Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B-
ValueD NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Browns worked the phones like thieves and earned a B-.

The Browns clearly saw something nobody else did in J.J. Weaver, taking him 177 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

Landing Sanders that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick67 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at the 67th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in slot 94 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick99 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick104 Rnd4 Antwane Wells Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Antwane Wells Jr. in Round 4, Pick 2 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at the 105th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jabbar Muhammad
Value said wait; Jabbar Muhammad in pick No. 140 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick146 Rnd5 Andrew Armstrong
They talked themselves into Andrew Armstrong at the 146th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick154 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A conviction pick on Ajani Cornelius at Round 5, Pick 16 that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick163 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at pick 163 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick167 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
They left a pile of value on the table to take Miles Frazier this early at the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick178 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
Circle this one: RJ Harvey at slot 178 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Taking Raheim Sanders in pick No. 179 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick188 Rnd6 Brady Cook
Brady Cook in the 188th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Trevor Etienne
They reached into another round for Trevor Etienne, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
They reached a country mile for J.J. Weaver at pick 200, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jimmy Horn Jr.
A big swing on Jimmy Horn Jr. at Round 6, Pick 40, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They paid sticker price for Cam Jackson in the 219th pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick227 Rnd7 Josh Kelly
A wild overpay on Josh Kelly in No. 227, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick243 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shilo Sanders well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Joshua Simon
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joshua Simon. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Dontae Manning
Dontae Manning in the 254th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
