Everette Brown - D, terrible for what we gave up to move up and get him..

Sherrod Martin - C, showed spunk his 1st year but terrible sophomore slump

Corvey Irvin - F, never got going

Mike Goodson - C, never got the chance behind 2 studs, but fumbles dropped him down

Tony Fiammetta - D, "Best FB in Draft" - thought Fox and Co. would love this guy.

Duke Robinson - F, there are no words..

Captain Munnerlyn - A, for a 7th rd pick.. not starter quality but great find

overall grade = D+

that draft was horrible... yet another example that Hurney is a bad talent evaluator

he has done nothing to address our HUGE holes on defense (dont worry though, we got a 3rd running back), and Mare is still under a over paid contract (dont worry there are only 2 teams in the NFL with less cap space then us, so paying a kicker alot of money makes good sense)

he let Peppers (1 of the NFL's best D players) leave and we got nothing in return

we were paying Delhomme 16 million to play for the Browns

we moved up to get E. Brown who couldnt even be a consistant backup

we moved up to get A. Edwards who ONLY gets on the field because Hurney gave up so much to get him

It seems that the positions we drafted in 09 were pretty thin. Brown was the sixth DE taken but a few before him were busts as well. Connor Barwin and Darell Scott would have been better picks than Brown and Irvin. I think Martin has outplayed his fellow defensive backs at where he was selected.

    • Wow that’s actually really cool chatgpt can do that Although, as we know Arizona sat in soft zone the entire second half. So there was a lot of dinking and dunking, but that’s the right thing to do in that situation.  Week 1 pass chart doesn’t look bad. He pushes the ball downfield more than several other quarterbacks I’ve watched. For some reason the huddle thinks other quarterbacks are constantly throwing 60 yard bombs. That is absolutely not the case. Some quarterbacks aren’t taking any deep shots at all.
    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.
