    The most worthless thing done is rating drafts before anyone has stepped on the field and before all offseason work is done.....I've seen mostly C grades for our draft and a few B grades.
    They don't even consider what you did with the draft picks that you don't have..like our 4th landing us our franchise QB in Tanny....

    I looked back at 2016 to see what type of grades we got for that draft
    CBS sports C-
    PFF B-
    WalterFootball B-
    SBNation B

    I'd certainly give that draft a solid A grade... a draft in which you get 3 guys who have been pro bowlers (Conklin, Henry, and Byard) and 3 solid contributors who have signed 2nd contracts with other teams in Johnson, Sharpe, Sims.....

    So what do you think has been our worst draft ever...I'd say 2013

    Warmack, Justin Hunter, Blidi Wreh-Wilson, Zavier Gooden, Brian Schwenke, Lavar Edwards, Khalid Wooten, Damian Stafford

    That is one rough draft especially for picking fairly early in the rounds....

    2013 is :hang::hang:

    Warmack was such a gross pick, even if he did pan out, when is a guard ever worth #10 overall.

    Well we gained 2 studs and a lineman so thats probably good for a B B+ in 4 yrs when we can actually grade this draft.

    I always say any GM that nets 3 players in any given draft did a good job. Not sure we got 3 but even so 2 grades out to a B IMO.

    B+

    Needs were definitely met. The only pick I downright don't like is Cole McDonald. No edge player whatsoever is a little surprising. Putting a lot of eggs into the Clowney basket.

    I would rate it a B. If we get Clowney an A. We better go sign a veteran back up qb with tanney past injury history the 2 we got now are not going to help us if we had an injury.

    Hope that Clowney basket gets filled tomorrow. Draft only makes sense if that happens. I believe it will

    Did well and filled needs. It ain’t over gang, free agency will happen and we can pad some positions once guys are cut etc. I’m liking our position heading in. The only thing that worries me a bit is the backup QB position (then again, Mary wasn’t winning jack anyways),,,I also wonder how our corners will do...I think signing Clowney is a must and I believe we do...

    Sure nobody cares but Pro football focus gave us one of the lowest grades. Over the years we have gotten some players in the 7th round. It wont happen this year doubt either make the roster and one or two of the undrafted invites beat them out.

    Again we get Clowney it is an A if we do not C plus to B minus
