Templar DRAFTING FOR THEBrowns

Draft Grade — Browns
Overall

NeedB+
TradesF
FutureA+
The Browns bled value on every deal, hence the B-. The Will Rogers selection is the head-turner. The Browns reached 123 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The Giddens pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a matchup problem out wide at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Kaleb Johnson
They liked Kaleb Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 33. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick44
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
No drama and no debate, JT Tuimoloau went about where he belonged in slot 44. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
They took Donovan Jackson at par in pick 61, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76
Rnd3
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 76th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick85
Rnd3
Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at No. 85 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94
Rnd3
Tai Felton
No edge and no loss on Tai Felton in the 94th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104
Rnd4
Jacob Parrish
They paid up for Jacob Parrish at Round 4, Pick 2 when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128
Rnd4
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland in pick No. 128 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick179
Rnd6
Nazir Stackhouse
They talked themselves into Nazir Stackhouse at pick 179, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192
Rnd6
Torricelli Simpkins III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Torricelli Simpkins III this early at the Round 6 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick200
Rnd6
DJ Giddens
They barely believed it either: DJ Giddens still on the board at the 200th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick216
Rnd6
Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson at slot 216 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick255
Rnd7
Will Rogers
Will Rogers at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
