Draft Grade — Browns
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Browns robbed the room for Kandra. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Luke Kandra sat on the board until the 192nd overall pick, and the Browns did not need to be asked twice. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The Skattebo reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
They paid sticker price for Travis Hunter in the 2nd overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in slot 33 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
They barely believed it either: Tyler Booker still on the board at Round 3, Pick 3. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A reach on Cam Skattebo in the 94th pick; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe slid further than he should have, and pick No. 104 is lovely value for the quarterback. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick179 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jack Kiser. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick192 Rnd6 Luke Kandra
They will replay Luke Kandra at pick 192 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick200 Rnd6 Thomas Fidone II
No edge and no loss on Thomas Fidone II in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
No drama and no debate, Jordan Hancock went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick255 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway in pick No. 255 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
