Ok…go on record with your draft grade.

Very solid B.. but the jury will be out until December...
The first 3 picks A... but kinda lost me when they kept trading back in later rounds...

 

[The Gr8est]

Time to own it.

I go B.

Some odd picks in 5 and 6, hated the QB pick. Loved first three picks, Crownover, and Miller.

Exactly the same for me.

Don’t forget about getting another 2027 6th round pick in addition draft that should be much better.

Solid B. Hard to get to A picking 31 and on the back end of runs on positions in a weak class.

Traded up when needed, got some nice prospects, a couple I thought were meh but no real wtf pick ala BB and Rohrwasser.

every team in the AFC east did all right for themselves I think

A very B draft. Addressed most of the big needs besides off ball LB. (unless you consider the guy we took in the 6th) We drafted two players I liked (Lomu, Raridon) and a guy I loved in Jacas.

Day 3 was meh. But I liked the OT and LB we did take. Overall solid draft.

Whenever you can draft 3-4 guys who will turn into starters, its a good draft. I think we did that with the first 3 pics. I really like that Lomu and Crownover put Campbell on notice. I don't mean that they will threaten his for his job at this point, but they are massive motivators and in his rear view mirror. Competition has a way for pushing people hard. Will needed that.

Grade based on needs: C.

Pats biggest weakness was the the entire OL, but only took one significant OL in the first round. Edge was another need which they addressed early. They needed better blocking at the TE position and they took one in a reasonable round I. Not taking a WR at all could signal they plan on trading for Brown. If I were the Eagles, I wouldn't trade Brown.

The 3 players that have the best chance to play are their top 3 picks in Lomu, Jacas and Raridon.

Draft will be graded after year 1.

F. Patriots do not care about putting on a show and fielding an exciting product.
They have zero creativity and will never take risks and shoot for the homerun.
All 3 other teams in the division had better and more interesting drafts than pats.
Bottom third of the league team next year and boring while doing it.

Found Felger. Lol

 

[ZoisKing]

I am very happy with rounds 1-3. Felt like we hit on high ceiling players who are all top shelf athletes.

Round 4 is the only other round I really grade.
Rounds 5-7 are a crapshoot. Happy we got Crownover. Some of the other guys will be interesting to track.

If you are the Eagles, you just blew up your franchise. What a great move.

 

[Keyser Söze]

C because of the lack of impact talent we desperately need. It will be a B if Lomu can play

LOL! There is no style points for drafting the NFL.

You found the Bills exciting by trading down in the first round twice and exiting the round all together? Nothing more exciting than waiting all night to see your team draft only to see them trade out of the first round.

Teams that take risks and shoot for home runs fail more than they win. The draft is a crapshoot. Putting your eggs all in one basket is like buying a lottery ticket.

And most of the unbiased reviews of the draft I have seen thus far (day one and two) have given the Patriots better grades than any of their division rivals. A lot of people seem to dislike what everyone else in the division did day one.

The Dolphins and Jets also had the advantage of having multiple first rounders ( some really high in the draft). But that is because they suck and traded away the few good players they had.

Really sugar coated this post.

Really sugar coated this post.

But taking risks and going for the home run never fails!! Trading an entire draft for Ricky Williams was genius! Saints fans couldn't have asked for better than going 3-13 the following season!
