    The majority of these people handing out grades are not employed by an NFL team for a reason ....they suck .... let them play 3 years then grade them .... 

    That's no fun.

    Assigning grades is a game in itself. Grading drafts is merely an opinion based on how much the analyst believes the players selected will contribute to the team ...THEN  after 3 years we can determine if the analyst was right or wrong.

    We fans are not employed by NFL teams either, but a letter grade could easily be attached to our opinion of how our beloved team did.

      Always been a fan of The Godfather Gil Brandt..Most scouts/gm's have a need to know? Gil's there Man. He finds grades being silly at this point..What I don't find silly is his top 150..Here's where we sit with his players ranked...Mayfield Gil ranked #4//////D.Ward #9//////N.Chubb #34////A.Corbett #62////C.Thomas #144...More than 3/4 of Gil's board is gone..Lots of good WR's are the majority left

        Grading any draft at this point is merely an exercise in ignorance.

        No, not really.  Grading is just for fun...see my "awesome " post above.

        Btw...looking forward to your thread analyzing the drafts of the AFCN...know your enemies!

        I was ecstatic about getting Mason Rudolph!!!  I'd be willing to bet that both Rudolph and  the Ravens Lamar Jackson end up far superior QB's over Mayfield.

        I would not be saying this if the Browns had selected Darnold or even Rosen.

          Yes I know it is just for fun but that doesn't make it any less of a completely useless gesture.

            Voice activation heard me say my boot off when I actually said Rudolph. Nevertheless my boot off might be a good nickname for him

                    drafts are always disappointing to me.  Whatever team I call mine never drafts the guys I want or mock to them.  The only redemption is I get to usually say I told everyone so when they bust, but actually that is no fun.

                                    I would put my faith in the guy who drafted Kareem Hunt and Travis Kelce before these NFL wannabes.

                                    Bashing the Giants for taking Barkley and praising the Ravens for getting Jackson. When Barkley is tearing up the NFL and Jackson crashing and burning these yahoos will no where to be found.

                                      I bashed Barkley....only as a counter to the slaverly behavior of some toward him. My true feelings about him are that he will be good, but not the savior of mankind that these guys thought.  Jackson, I do think will struggle.  He will have some awesome athletic plays....but as a full time professional QB I am not sure that his skills as a QB were any better than those of JT Barrett....who I believe went undrafted.
