Draft Grades
-
Been reading some this morning ... The Browns got grades varying from A to B-
Some teams got a D
Raiders, PackersCowboys got a C from one grader for drafting Lamb instead of a defensive back or edge rusher
-
Greg Cosell had Wills as his top LT, that’ll do for me
-
Honestly.....grading a draft now is a completely useless proposition.

Raiders take Ruggs purely because of his 50 time, the CB is a plus 4.5 guy - very curious to take a nickle back in the 1st round.
Packers took QB of the future; it worked out well when they did so with Rogers, time will tell. If Love turns into Mahomes, who will laugh then?
Cowboys took a true star WR. Maybe they wish they didn't blow a wad on Cooper now. A true dominant edge rusher wasn't there. And, they have a few retreads on board they are hoping will turn out - the guy from SF who was dominant and is now clean. They can get a CB later. I'm not so sure taking Lamb was a mistake. When you can get a true playmaker you take them, period.

Absolutely i remember hearing how well we did when we got the next great NFL back and the most NFL ready QB in the first round.
most of us still have the draft scars to prove it

I have no problem with Packers pick. Someone on here made a great point about Rodgers contract in 2021 HUGE cap number. He’s 36 too. There are plenty of WRs and weapons to be had later in the draft

I assume you mean 2012 with TR and Weeden.

Yep. I feel like we have a lot of these horror stories in the Dark Ages 1999-2017.
we did set the Ravens up with a Hall of Famer just before we left though

Everyone is home and most don't have to work the following day after the NFL stretches 32 picks to four damn hours. Lol

The first round? I don’t think it’s ever run that long. They milked the shit out of it yesterday.

Draft grades are only for the here and now. Something to talk about. They are based on filling needs and quality of player. Grades do not project or reflect the teams success. It can take years to know how good or bad a draft was.
That said, according to nfl.com straight A's across the board for the AFCN.

Did anyone realize that the Browns have drafted 10% of the SEC players taken so far??

If it is about filling needs....then the Browns did that so far, to a certain extent. Needed LT...got one. Needed safety...got one. Needed LB...got one. Needed some DL depth...got some.
The only question is: did we pick the right ones? Will Wills be better than Wirfs? Will Delpit be better than Winfield? Will Phillips be better than Harrison? Will Elliot be better than...whoever? Only time will tell on these....and on what grade this draft will really become.
Will Wills turn out close to Joe Thomas....or be Austin Corbett/Cam Erving like? Will Delpit be Eric Turner-ish....or Justin Gilbert-ish? Will Phillips be Mike Singletary....or Mike Junkin?

Yep. You elaborated on what I was saying. Teams are graded on how they filled needs, not how the drafts pan out because no one knows.
Browns get an A no doubt.
So when some say "it's to early" to give grades. It really not. They need to put it into perspective.

Isn't that what mock drafts, draft projections, the draft itself and chat rooms like this one are basically all about ?
Grades, opinions, chat unless you think they are completely useless too, eh ?
......think about that before you comment. Hmmmm maybe every sports network is also completely useless, they all put out draft grades.
