Round 1: Ronnie Brown, HB, Auburn - Not necessarily a need pick, but a lack of viable options to trade back dictated that the Browns take the best player on the board.
Round 2: Daryll Blackstock, OLB, Virginia - Adds a rushing OLB for the Browns new 3-4.
Round 3: Jason Campbell, QB, Auburn - In an effort to move Auburn north, the Brown found great value in Jason Campbell in 3. He can learn the ropes from Dilfer and eventually take the starting QB spot.
Considering this draft netted potential 10 year starters at both RB and QB, I deem it a success. It didn't address some of Cleveland's more pressing needs, but they are going to stink anyway, so I just tried to add the best players possible and building blocks for the future at the skill positions QB, RB and pass rusher.
