Browns NFL Draft grades: Zak Zinter, OG, Michigan 85th overall

Browns NFL Draft grades for selecting Michigan OL Zak Zinter in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft

The Cleveland Browns take yet another step in improving one of the best offensive lines in the entire league and shore up some more depth with the selection of Michigan offensive guard Zak Zinter in the middle of the third round.

Zinter does not project as an immediate starter in Cleveland but will get the luxury to develop behind some of the best the game has to offer in current starter Joel Bitonio and Wyatt Teller.

A super productive, refined, vicious brawler, Zinter fits the personality of a Cleveland Brown guard perfectly. Zinter helped anchor one of the best offenses in the nation last year and projects as an eventual starter in the league and an extremely valuable depth piece.

Grade: B+
