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

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.

Well....that is just one idiot turd's arsehole opinion.
Mayfield....WAS..in fact the best QB in college football this year....from all objective measure.
And I guess I would have to see the site...but Ward also grades out, talentwise, as well as Chubb, does he not?
Let's just make this prediction: Ward will perform better at HIS position than Chubb will perform at his.
So...there is your Hot Take:
Ward will perform better at CB than Chubb will at DE.

First, grading drafts is by and large just another exercise in confirmation bias. The more players you like that a team took, the higher the grade. That said....
- I keep looking at LAC's draft... they really confirmed my biases.
- GB grabbed a lot of value in a lot of players... quality and quantity in one draft.
- Not many players, but NYG sure grabbed quality.

Well.....why don't we give Grades to the Draft classes that deserve to be graded at this point: Those 3 to 5 years ago:

2013....an F. No one...including Mingo contributed at all to the Browns...not really
2014...a B minus I think. Two solid performers still with Browns, Kirksey/Bito. (despite the shite at the top of that draft)
2015. A C at best. Three players still here....Orchard/Telfer. Duke Johnson saves it from a D.

I think Orchard is history. And so does 247.

I agree with 2013, probably would give 2015 a D+, but I can't go along with the B- on '14.
I just can't give a draft where your TWO 1st rounders are absolute abortions a B-, even if Bitonio and Kirsey have been good starters.

BROWNS 2010 era drafts can be summed up by the words "do over".

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.

Easy to give out immediate grades- the more accurate one are the "let's redo the X draft from three years ago". 20\20 hindsight. Every review draft would now have Tom Brady as the #1 overall, not sixth round.
It's the primary reason the Browns have stunk for over a decade. The talent we've passed on that was still on the board, and us taking a bust is mind boggling.

That's why I always shake my head when, inevitably, someone blurts out: "Well I'll just trust the guys paid to draft players who have way more football knowledge than some guy on a message board..."
I mean, the sentiment is 100% correct. But the Browns, since '99, have shown that some random guy with a draft guide bought for $8 at the local bookshop CAN do a better job.

Probably...but still...he is only like one of 5 guys taken from all these drafts still on the roster.

But every time he substituted for Garrett the opposing teams ran right over his side for massive yardage. He just does not play the run well at all when it comes right at him.

Well, on the depth chart, Orchard is listed as the third string SLB.....behind Collins and James Burgess. If he can't beat out James Burgess for a backup LB spot....then absolutely...his days are numbered.
