2010 Browns draft grades pt. 2

The Browns gathered a lot of 8 players from the draft this year. Yesterday I graded the first half of the picks. Today I will wrap up the final 4 and give the Browns an overall draft grade. There are a few criteria by which I handed out my grades: did the player fill a need, what type of impact will they have on the team (both immediate and in the future), and when they were drafted (reach? value?).

Round 3 pick 92 Shawn Lauvao (guard/tackle, Arizona State) - B

Browns 2010 draft pick grades

Based upon what I have read on various sites, Browns fans are split over their opinions of the team's draft.

I am by no means an expert, but here is my grade of the first four picks the Browns made in this year's draft (later picks' grades will be posted tomorrow along with an overall draft grade). There are a few criteria by which I handed out my grades: did the player fill a need, what type of impact will they have on the team (both immediate and in the future), and when they were drafted (reach? value?).

Round 1 pick 7 Joe Haden (cornerback, Florida) - B-
