My preferences:Epenesa, Simmons, and the offensive tackles. I'll wait until after the Senior Bowl to decide about the others.

I still prefer Epenesa at 10. Okay with an offensive tackle, but I'd prefer two in free agency.
Prefer Beckham traded. Prefer BPA, but okay with offensive lineman or wide receiver.
Senior Bowl standouts I'd look at:Jason Strowbridge, Kyle Dugger, Troy Pride Jr., Akeem Davis Gaither, Harrison Bryant, and Anthony Gordon.

I’d prefer an offensive tackle.

I give us a A- on the draft overall. every player picked was exceptional value and filled the Need/Fit/Long-term Upside goal.
I did not like the 74 and 244 for 88 and a 21 3rd initially but was happy as can be when Elliott dropped. that could have been a mistake as he was basically the last solid DT on the board and could have been gone by 88.
I also was a little bit surprised they took Philips over Harrison [taken 1 pick after him] but for fit sake as a run stopper I get it.
Overall Wills is the top tackle despite having to switch sides, Delpit is a beast at SS , and getting AJ Green as a udfa was killer

Some Senior Bowl studs who went undrafted. I would have preferred a few seventh round picks and I prefer Epenesa over Delpit. Otherwise no complaints.

We signed a defensive tackle in free agency. Billings. I didn't think it was a need at this point.

^ yeah there was no way SImmons was falling to 10 and he is the only non OT prospect that a small chance of getting the Browns to move off their biggest need of protecting Bakers blindside esp as poor as the OT's were last season.
Another edge prospect like Epenesa who never was getting picked at 10 clearly wasn't even on the list since they drafted exactly zero DE or OLB prospects.
there really is only one weak link this season and that is Baker getting it done or not. No more excuses if he fails this coming season they will be replacing him

They won't want to pay Bitonio big money after next season. If Nick Harris shows potential I assume he becomes his replacement. As much as I would have preferred defense this may be the pick I'm most happy with.

You have the right idea, but I think he’s more likely to replace Tretter. I could be wrong, but he’s a small and quick guy.

Delpit out for the year. You can't predict which players will be injury-prone if he ends up injury-prone, but in a position of limited depth this hurts.

I'm not hearing much about Willis but some positives about some of the other draft picks. I'm still optimistic about this draft.

Through two games I'm very happy with Wills and Elliott. Bryant has potential, and I'd like to see Harris get playing time. Could be an amazing draft if Delpit can recover and come close to potential even if Peoples-Jones and Phillips don't work out.

Phillips had a good game the last game. Through 16 games I'm very happy with this class.
