    We have never had a draft this one sided that I can remember. It's exciting and it's a shoot for the stars type of draft.

    Thaaaaaat could also mean we are also just throwing 30 hail Marries in a hope that this sort of thing turn around a lackluster team

    D+

    We could have built the D this draft. Leonard Williams, Jordan Phillips (or Goldman), Odighizuwa in the first 3 rounds. Add that with the offseason moves and wow.

    We went offense instead. I think Mary can be good (in the right situation) but I question what Whis is going to really do with him (or to him). DGB I like but obvious question marks and we clearly missed a lot of other good WRs that went in the first. Poutasi I like as a future stating guard, but how can I grade that well when we could have had Daryl Williams and Tre Jackson in round 4... think we could have had Poutasi or equivalent a round later. I like Cobb, I hate both 4th round picks. Gallik and McBride are fine last picks but they don't matter much in the equation and would have rather had potential stud in the Oregon corner.

    Cobb is my favorite pick and I consider drafting a RB a luxury selection, as they are barely worth a draft pick anymore (compared to other positions).

    This was a desperation "save our jobs" draft by Webster and Whiz instead of actually building a team for the future.

    I'm very happy with the 2nd round trade back and subsequent DGB pick. But would've still rather had two 1sts to build around than a questionable QB who is the polar opposite of what your Head Coach/OC prefers.

    I look at what the Jets did and think what if....they got their WR(Smith) and exact replica QB(Petty, best arm in draft) and still killed it by grabbing Leonard Williams in the first. Not to mention Zac Stacy for a 7th? You gotta be sh1tting me.

    Titans could've had....

    19 DJ Humphries
    38 DGB

    7th Zac Stacy

    That would've been sick, and if Mett busts we're in position to take a QB 1

    A= Outstanding
    B= Good
    C= Average
    D= Unsatisfactory
    F= Fail

    Webster handled the trades with discipline. I respect him for that. We may have reached a bit in the mid round picks but no way to know other team's boards and we did fill some needs. Only time will tell. No major gaffes IMO.

    The overall goal appeared to be to redefine our offense and we achieved that. I don't think we attained outstanding value but I do believe it was a good draft, so I went with a B.

    The success of this draft pretty much depends on 1 player.

    Went with B+

    Mariota B+ - Really wanted to trade down, but I dont think anything worthy was ever received. Drafted a potential franchise QB.

    DGB A+ - Character concerns. But, he's having a baby and seems to be a changed man. Hard working and a massive person. Could be the top WR in the NFL in a few years.

    Poutasi C+ - A bit of a reach, could of been drafted in the 4th-5th. We needed a RT, took a guy who can play RT, but should play guard. He's massive though, has potential.

    Blackson D+ - The dude has decent size. But was a huge reach.

    Fowler B+ - Hopefully turns into Mike Tolbert

    Cobb A+ - We needed a RB, and found Cobb late. Reminds me of Marion Barber.

    Mount INC - Never heard of the guy

    Gallick B - Schewnke backup

    McBride A - Will fight with Jacoby Ford for a spot

    Proud of this team for finally taking a chance on a guy. Wasn't excited after day 1, but now after the plan, I am very excited. Was a great draft. Of course you cannot tell right away, but we had a plan for once.
