The 2012 draft was a masterclass by the front office

Seattle - had 13 picks and missed on 8 so hit only 38.5% of 1st rounders. A. Curry, L Jackson, Spenser, Tubbs, J. Stevens, K Robinson, J. Carpenter, K. Jennings.

Colts - Missed on 5 of 11

I think if you look, you will see there are more 1st round misses than you thought by a lot of teams and not just teams bad at drafting like Cleveland

I'm trusting your research on this, but I'd like to clarify what's considered a "miss" here?  Does that mean not a starter?  No longer on the roster?  Not a contributor at all?

I just want to clarify because expectations increase or decrease based on where they're drafted.  Nobody expects a 6th round draft pick to be an opening day starter in year one.
