I gave this one a B. There's potential for this draft to yield a number of starters, but also the chance it blows up in our face like an ACME dynamite kit.
Mims has shown enough on tape that I'm not too worried about his development. The concern is whether he can stay on the field. Still, I was happy we nabbed one of the top T prospects and can hopefully close the revolving door at RT.
Jenkins is a super safe pick with a high floor and significant upside.I have no doubts that he will develop into at least a quality starter. If some of these other risky picks don't pan out, he's gonna be the guy we look back on in a few years as the saving grace of this draft.
Burton is an amazing talent, but the characters concerns are there for a reason. Still, we desperately needed a WR3, so I get the gamble. Would've liked to address WR in the 2nd, but the run on WR's had decimated the board.
Jackson is a massive reach for a Day 3 level talent with serious character concerns of his own. I don't see him ever being a quality starter as a talent, and it doesn't give me hope when a kid with a felony drug arrest sounds completely stoned when the team calls him to pick him.
All, I don't get at all. I'm not spending anything more than a 7th on a guy with spinal surgery in his medical history. Then, the run on RB's starts right after the pick, decimating that board. Newton was a solid pick and kind of got the draft headed in the right direction again. McLachlan was a solid Day 3 TE prospect that some were extremely high on, but he makes the All pick even more of a head scratcher. Johnson was a late gamble on a freakishly athletic edge rusher, and those are always worth taking. Anthony is versatile, and that may help him stick as the 4th S. Lee is an intriguing C prospect.
