WTS, no team ever has a perfect draft even in the strongest classes. You need a balance of good drafting AND free agents. I think a mix of our hits in the draft and a couple of decent free agents every year would field a much better team. Instead, you get articles from Geoff Hobson swearing up and down Alex Redmond is the next Gene Upshaw and you end up reaching for John Ross when you didn't have to if you just retained one of Jones/Sanu (Marvin wanted to be #1 so he probably leaves anyway).
This year seems like a great opportunity to stack up at some positions since they pick 1st in every round. So we will truly see what Tobin and Zac are made of.
It is hard to judge from last years Draft with Jonah getting hurt. I liked the Sample pick initially as he was a great blocker in college
but he didn't produce as a rookie much at all. I still love the Pratt pick and I think he will be a good one. You are correct, with this
year having the 1st pick at the start of every round should tell us a lot. Even then you can't really judge a pick until they play in the
NFL for a bit.
