Just subtract 10 for the Homer Vote and the poll will make sense.

 

Eggsactly. :cool:

 

Those saying the Falcons had the worst draft in the NFC South, when in fact they had one of the best in the whole NFL, are just blind homers or Huddle kids posting drivel.

Atlanta had a great draft IMO.  Grabbed some nice defensive talent that could be difference makers in the next couple of years. Hardy can replace Harry Douglas, and Coleman could be decent (if they get an OL)

 

Panthers/Bucs next. Bucs for obvious reasons, though some of their guys have question marks in the effort/maturity categories.  I like what the Panthers did..and all the "experts" wondering why we traded so much don't understand our roster.  We came away with 3 immediate starters (IMO), all 3 with big potential so I call that a win for now.

 

 

And the Saints...well...you tried. 5 picks in the top 78 I think it was? I understand some of them in the long run...but for now they drafted depth with maybe only a couple difference makers.

On paper atlanta had the best draft. But!!!! The draft is won on the field and I love the fits we found with out first 3 picks. My sleeper pick who I liked was the saints DE/OLB Kikaha that they got. I really like that guy and hope I'm wrong about him

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
