It’s very simple. If you go by total impact, we didn’t do well. If you go by total value which accounts for our lack of picks, we did well. Ignoring the fact that if Corral is amazing we win the draft, a team like the Jets got Garrett Wilson, Sauce Gardner and Jermaine Johnson in the 1st. That’s three impact starters as of now. We have Iky and maybe Corral.

If you go by true impact starters there’s no way we rank ahead of the Jets. That said, they had way more draft capital and that’s where we had an advantage.

Pretty sure Brady Quinn said drafting Corral was a huge mistake. Too raw.

 Put another way: this list isn't identifying the "best" or "worst" draft classes, but instead showing how the actual draft stacked up against our draft board. It's more instructive than definitive and hopefully that's how you'll take it.

 

Put yet another way, this "grade" is more about how each team stacks up if they had all picked as he had instructed them to.  The Panthers, with fewer picks in day 1-2 had fewer chances to cross him up.  Also he does not describe the grade for drafting a player he had listed as FA.  I liked what we did with our draft but this whole article is an exercise in narcissism.

Well, at 94, nothing is a “huge” mistake. I don’t think I saw anywhere where Corral was ranked that low. Who knows if he works out but it can’t be a huge mistake. Also, taking him at 94 also means that if he fails badly, we move on quickly. Besides, Quinn has zero clue what good NFL QB play is like.

yeah i agree. BQ has no idea. He was the CBS figurehead blasting our draft.

weird ... CBS was just saying we were the worst immediately after the draft...

Yeah it's strange cause on the CBS Sports Draft Tracker, we got Bs and Cs for every single one of our draft picks.  Seemed like a pretty mediocre reception of our draft.

    • I'll be patiently waiting to see what OL additions we snatch off the waiver wire.
    • Look don't get me wrong here. I'm not arguing it's going to just change his arm talent overnight. I'm just saying doing anything on the physical front after the GM who stuck his neck out for him over the concerns around his physical traits got fired is better than doing nothing. That's another layer. It could easily be argued overall he needed to add at least 10 pounds not just for the sake of working in the pocket and not going down so easily but let's be honest eventually no matter how much we invest in the OL he's going to get hit some and those hits will add up. His frame as it stands is only going to absorb so much over a 17 game season. Oh definitely good or bad we will have to run a lot of under center stuff. Bryce will either look good or flounder. But our offense will remain stagnant if we just keep running shotgun plays 90% of the time. You're telegraphing your offense otherwise. That's why I'm not giving Chuba Hubbard too hard of a time over his YPC last year. We weren't fooling anyone. We'll see what Canales has cooked up. It better be pretty damn clever.
    • Why would a team ever not be aggressive in improving the roster? It may look different from year to year but even the best rosters churn at the bottom. That's a no-brainer.
