The phones sank the Browns this weekend: D-. The Browns torched the value chart for Tyler Batty, taking him 65 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. However the rest shakes out, Ewers at that price is a win they earned. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
Job largely done: quarterback settled and 9 of 9 of the wish list covered.
In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In the 4th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick18
Rnd1
Mykel Williams
They paid sticker price for Mykel Williams in pick No. 18, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick24
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In the 24th pick they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick30
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In the Round 1 slot they get a centerfielder for the defense, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Omarion Hampton
By-the-book stuff, Omarion Hampton at Round 2, Pick 1 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick49
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
They paid up for Jayden Higgins at pick 49 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick57
Rnd2
Marcus Mbow
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marcus Mbow in pick No. 57. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick64
Rnd2
Cameron Williams
They took Cameron Williams at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick65
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
They read the board right and TreVeyon Henderson was the payoff at slot 65. The roster fit checks out.
Pick78
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond at Round 3, Pick 14 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick79
Rnd3
Darien Porter
Darien Porter at the 79th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
Fair-plus on Elijah Arroyo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick90
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Good price on Deone Walker in No. 90, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick104
Rnd4
Savion Williams
Savion Williams is a better player than the 104th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120
Rnd4
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers in No. 120 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick127
Rnd4
Jacob Parrish
They did well to land Jacob Parrish in Round 4, Pick 25, just ahead of his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134
Rnd4
Jeffrey Bassa
The board had Jeffrey Bassa higher than the Round 4 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick137
Rnd4
Que Robinson
A wild overpay on Que Robinson in the 137th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149
Rnd5
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in pick No. 149 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick163
Rnd5
Vernon Broughton
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Vernon Broughton well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172
Rnd5
Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at pick 172 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
They reached a country mile for Isaac TeSlaa at slot 178, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at slot 198 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216
Rnd6
Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw at pick No. 216 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick250
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
No drama and no debate, Teddye Buchanan went about where he belonged in the 250th overall pick. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick255
Rnd7
Collin Oliver
A big swing on Collin Oliver at No. 255, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick257
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
This one needs a full-page explanation: Shilo Sanders in the Round 7 slot, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
