Show notes
The Cleveland Browns again do not have a first-round pick in this weekend's NFL Draft.
Cleveland's acquisition of Deshaun Watson continues to impact draft capital, and Watson's availability and on-field performance has to get better in 2024 no matter how the Browns navigate Days 2 and 3 of the draft.
Here's the Browns' picks, selections and grades for the 2024 NFL Draft.
2nd round, No. 54 overall | Michael Hall, DT, Ohio State
Analysis: The highlights for Hall are as good as any top-50 player, but the production and the consistency is not there. He had a good pre-draft process, but the production needs to show up. He has shown good explosion off the ball and hand usage, but it comes and goes.
3rd round, No. 85 overall | Zak Zinter, OL, Michigan
Analysis: Zinter is resigned to interior lineman versatility, and he'll need to be technically proficient as a pro.
The Browns also drafted the following players:
5th round, No. 156 overall (from Philadelphia via Arizona) |
6th round, No. 206 overall (from Baltimore) |
7th round, No. 227 overall (from Tennessee) |
7th round, No. 243 overall |
