Grade The Draft

[Whatever]

I'm not going to go back to listen to all interviews to give you names but I know I've heard others talk about it as well as pod cast folks talk about coaches saying it over and over again. Watson was a shell of himself and Lamar was hurt, so I wouldn't call that 2 MVPs since Huntley was playing. 

Again, not unhappy with the draft, but think RT is still an issue which is what my original post said. 

Tobin's comments were actually that it was a grind finding enough OL because colleges and the NFL don't have enough, not that you can't have enough.  So, in Tobin's opinion, you actually can have enough.

I'm not going to say anyone has to give this draft a particular grade.  I think the lack of a TE is a fair criticism, although there's really not one I would have taken over the player we would up getting at a certain pick in a vacuum.  I just don't get the OL depth comments.  A lot of teams would love to be in a position where Lael Collins/Jonah Williams is the first guy off their bench and a guy who played as well as Carman did in the playoffs is the second.
