Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns let Latham fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Browns watched JC Latham slide 68 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick55 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They robbed the room for Keon Coleman here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick86 Rnd3 JC Latham
JC Latham at the 86th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cedric Gray. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick156 Rnd5 James Williams
Taking James Williams in slot 156 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick205 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in pick No. 205 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick228 Rnd7 Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial at the 228th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
