There are people pining for the leadership of Marty Hurney right now.

We may have officially reached The Ninth Circle of Dumb 🙄

I wish Hurney could come in every year just to make a first round selection and then walk out the door after that first round selection not to return back until its time to make the next first round drafty selection. The dude usually drafted pretty well in the first. He sucked at most everything else but first round he was a whiz

Of course he was! We were always picking in the top 10 because of him. Hard to miss when you're picking that high.

True for the most part if you leave out guys like Jamarcus Russell and some other top 10 busts. Even his later first round picks turned out pretty well. terrible GM but the guy could scout a first rounder

Tell that to Scott Fitterer

Ickey and Derrick Brown have been good??

 

horn is the only one you could arguably call a bad pick, and even then, he showed no issues staying healthy in college. Just bad luck. 
 

there are things to criticize Scott for but i don’t think first round selections are one of them.

How could Fitterer have drafted Brown if he was hired 9 months after Brown was drafted?

Okay? The point still stands that the *only* first round pick of Scott’s that could be considered “bad” is Jaycee - and once again it’s due to an issue that never reared its head in college. So of Scott’s three first round picks you have

 

one that looks good and send to be on his way to being a stud (Ickey)

One who’s a great player but hurt too often (Horn)

and one who just played their first game (Bryce)

 

You can be bummed about Jaycee, I am too, but there’s nothing proving Scott is “bad” in the First round.

OL - B+ they actually pleasantly surprised me how cohesive they were on most plays already. That said 5 sacks is not a number they should allow.

QB - I’ll reserve that until we see a bit more of him. 
 

WR - Who? Do we have any WR’s on the team. Agree on the F.

Hurst - A

Defense - D-, the defense overall was, not good. 

Coaches - F. Those game plans sucked ass. 

Respect your ratings. As far as the sacks go, I attribute most of it to how long Young held onto the ball.

My QB and all my ratings were just for how they played for this game. I certainly expect Young to get better with more experience and practice, but he needs WR help and the timing was atrocious (half on WR half on Young).

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid. 
    • Final Avs 9 Wild 6. Defense never entered the building lol.
