Draft Grades

Always nice to receive attaboys from the all knowing peanut gallery, but grading the draft hours after it's over is like buying a brand new car and then immediately proclaiming it the most dependable car you've ever owned.

And that Subaru Outback I rated as A+ when I bought it in 2018 is still an A+ after 50,000 miles just like Garrett & Ward are still an A+.??

BTW here are the draft picks we have in 2022.
1-6 our own. Plus a #4 from the Lions and a conditional swap of our #7 for the Lions #7, which I believe is up to us and not them. I am not certain of that though. Either way we currently have 8 for 2022. It's possible we may get a comp pick and/or an addition pick depending upon our cuts/trades.

Either way trade up for this guy.?
DeMarvin Leal, DT/DE, Texas A&M 6'4" 290lbs.
"Over the last two seasons, he’s proven to be a productive and versatile defensive lineman. The Aggies deployed him at both defensive end and tackle. Despite fewer games in 2020, Leal set career highs for tackles for loss and sacks. With fellow defensive lineman Bobby Brown heading to the 2021 NFL Draft, Leal will have an elevated role in the 2021 season.
With athleticism and versatility, he should be a valuable commodity in the NFL."
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.
Just so you know I'm not just homering this one either. Take a look at one of the top 5 in 2022 draft according to 247 sports. He is a perfect Browns defense fit.

Because he is a Ravens Honk.
Everyone seemed to have the Texans have a bad draft.
So, at this point, I think it is fair to say the following:
The Houston Texans are ON the Clock for the first pick in the 2022 draft.

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.

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

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...

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.
He doesn’t grade on a curve thats for sure
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.

I work in Delaware at PPG. What's the name of your restaurant? I'll venture a guess. Hamburger inn
