I've gone over this a lot, but people refuse to beleve it.
Belichick has the same success rate drafting WRs that the Steelers do.
It is very hard to comprehend, I know, but the rate is the same.
The only difference is that the Steelers spend 4x as many draft picks in the first four rounds as the Patriots do.
People would be stunned to understand how few WRs BB has drafted relative to the rest of the league over the last two decades.
Starting in the 2000 draft, we've taken David Givens, Deion Branch, Bethel Johnson, PK Sam, Chad Jackson, Julian Edelman, Brandon Tate, Taylor Price, Josh Boyce, Aaron Dobson, Malcolm Mitchell, Braxton Berrios and N'Keal Harry.
I'm not counting Harry in this analysis because he's only played in like 9 games. But look at the hit rate on the rest: 4 of 12. He's 33%. The Steelers are at 34%.
