How experts rated the Seattle draft class of 2012 or Why there's nothing more worthless than instant draft grades


Recommended Posts

That seems to be pretty accurate, lol. Wilson and Wagner have both been stellar. Irvin is sort of in wait and see, especially after his suspension. Turbin is an excellent change of pace back, but not a full time guy.

So, not far off?

 

So you'd give a C to a team who drafted a Pro-Bowl quarterback in the third round? And that also picked up three additional starters in Wagner (another Pro-Bowl caliber player), Irvin, and J.R. Sweezy? Plus a change-of-pace back?

 

Good call bro.

Draft grades are simply a form of content creation for the sake of itself, and analysts do it because if they didn't they wouldn't be working. It generates buzz, it creates hits to their websites, and promotes their business. It's not something that people who know better should take seriously.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
