Probably will change if players have 5 more seasons to prove it but it's a present moment question 

Star pick should have been D.Hopkins

Idk we had Smitty back then & DL was weak 

That was a myth. We were around 14th in run defense ahead of the Ravens who won the super bowl that year. We weren't great but we weren't double dip on defensive tackles bad either. And yes we had Smitty and that's all we had which was the problem

Kony Ealy the pick in the second. The guy picked next after him is Allen Robinson SMH! Then you have him and KB and we don't have to trade up for Funchess last year. These drafts have knock on effects in terms of need the following year. Sometimes BPA is just not the way to go.

Come on man, you can literally do this for almost every pick made in the draft.

    • 3 years 81.25m with 45m guaranteed (20m in 2018 hits March 15th of 2027)  Will either be cut or extended in the 2028 off-season. 
    • Reveal- Until three weeks before his draft, I wanted Simmons >> Brown. I hate to say I didn't see his greatest flaw the first time, upon reviewing more clips and lucky listening to better scout. Simmons was shown not to enjoy contact/hitting. WHich is crazy given he played a joker type of LB and had tons of tacks and big plays. But it was there hidden in the slow mo and people that played the game, he didn't enjoy hitting. Given that's a huge part of defenders job, I dropped him from want/need list and lucky for everyone dbrown was there to be picked.  Seems he's found a role or lane he's comfy in and willing to do and it does fit him once you disregard his draft status. Who knows, he maybe the NB for evero this year. He can still become a legit starter.  
    • Joly has the one thing our current TE groups does not, really, really good hands.  Tremble has gotten better at catching, but will never have 'natural' hands.  Evans is a blocking TE that has okay hands. A passing game threat is what we thought we were getting when drafting Sanders, but have found out otherwise.  With all the TEs we have drafted over the recent years, none of them have been considered a true weapon.  That needs to change. Blocking TEs are a dime a dozen and can be had on the cheap.  The miscalculation of the front office, folly if you will, is the idea of the Swiss Army knife TE, the guy that can do everything.  It takes a real gem to find a TE that does everything and do it well, so our jack of all trades ends up elite at nothing especially the one area where we (the fans) think the weak link is--a receiving threat.
