Draft Grade — Browns

Larceny in the Round 5 slot lands the Browns a B, Ewers and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Quinn Ewers got past him. The Browns do not have to explain a thing at the 147th pick.

Reaching for Jackson left real value on the table behind him. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 2 they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A quiet steal in pick No. 33: Kenneth Grant for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, TreVeyon Henderson at Round 3, Pick 3. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They barely believed it either: Jayden Higgins still on the board at the 94th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Circle this one: Ozzy Trapilo at pick 113 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick147 Rnd5 Quinn Ewers
They robbed the room for Quinn Ewers here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at slot 165 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick181 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cam Jackson in the Round 6 slot, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick194 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Somehow Quincy Riley was still sitting there in the 194th pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Taking Jaylen Reed in pick No. 202 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick216 Rnd6 Cam Horsley
Cam Horsley at pick 216 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217 Rnd6 Logan Parr
A big swing on Logan Parr at slot 217, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ben Yurosek
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ben Yurosek. A need, and now a little less of one.
