Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jaydon Blue, the No. 179 name on the board, stolen at slot 200. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If McLeod pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In No. 2 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Shedeur Sanders
Circle this one: Shedeur Sanders at the Round 2 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey in the 67th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick94 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Good price on Charles Grant in pick No. 94, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Savion Williams
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Savion Williams in Round 4, Pick 2. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick179 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ollie Gordon II. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jalen McLeod
Jalen McLeod at pick 192 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
They will replay Jaydon Blue at No. 200 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
