Draft Grades

Maybe not, but his grading is consistent from team to team.  He doesn't give out many A grades, then seems to even up with others on the low end of the spectrum.

In the end, who cares about the grades?  The only thing I care about is how I feel about things, and I feel fine....as the feedback buzzes through my amp.

I give them a B-

I still don't like taking Mr.Glass with the 1st pick...

Just remember I brought attention on this board to Garrett early on. I feel exactly the same way about this guy as a perfect fit for how the Browns play defense-versatilty and speed to burn in a big guy who can run stop or get to the QB/RB in the backfield. Just a slightly bigger version of Garrett.

You, bringing early attention to players from a team you watch religiously?  My GOD... I've never heard of such a concept.

edit: Actually I really can't talk shit, Ceddy isn't a bad OT for seattle.

Kiper graded the Rams higher than the Browns ....who the hell is Mel Kiper anyway

He's gotten better coaching than he had with Sumlin. That was good riddance for A&M and now Arizona. Plus he is in far better condition now under Pete.

PFF's draft grades from 2016

https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2016-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams

Grades after the draft rarely look good on anyone. We addressed things with logic, let's hope it plays out.

Yar- 2016 Bungles A-? Are any of them still in the League?  Coleman was a bust, but at least several of the Browns picks that year are still playing, though on other teams....

EDIT: Taking a longer look- it's shocking on how few of the players (any team) drafted 5 years ago are still in the NFL... Not For Long...

Leave it to Mel to bring our grade down ...

Why I'd rather watch NFLN than listen to Mel blabber... Took some nerve on Berry's part to wait on Koramoah. Daniel Jeremiah had him as "best available" at the start of Day2, and many of the talking heads had a first round grade on him.

Barely concealed Ravens homer... Did give just about everyone a "B" grade.... Sort of like college today. Show up for class, get a "B".

Two things there.....as noted,  Kiper does NOT believe in drafting RBs in round one.....and, just like his downgrading of the Browns,  his Ravens  honkishness means he will downgrade the Steelers as well.

Are pointless. Classes shouldn’t be graded until those players have been in the league for two or three years and I’d lean three. Grades are just a means for clicks and a lot of the “bigger names” are really damn bad at it. 

Kiper being one of the worst. Let it be known he gave Jarvis Jones an A+

I don’t hide ever. I have a business in food and we are busy as hell. The board also went completely bat shit on mobile for a stretch and when it does that I just don’t get on the board as I’m infrequently on my laptop and the better half has been using it for book keeping bs. Draft grades will always be stupid and I’d say the same If the Steelers had an A+ 

I really like our draft. It’s entirely too early to put a grade on any of them. Draft grades are for clicks when the season is in a holding pattern. It’s also why the league makes a big ass deal out of the schedule. Kiper giving the Steelers the worst draft grade just shows his ineptitude. He is also why I literally never watch ESPN draft coverage. He sucks at his job.

Definitely not the hamburger inn.

I know someone named Dana that works at PPG. (drives an s2000 in the summer) She’s a regular.  I own a juice and smoothie joint near Wendy’s. ??
