2015
1. 21 C. Ogbuehi - fail gone from team
2. 53 J. Fisher - fail gone from team
3A. 85 T. Kroft - gone
3B. 99 - P. Dawson - fail, not even in NFL
2016
1. 24 W. Jackson III - has been average at best lately, will that change ?
*2. 55 T. Boyd - very good
3. 87 N. Vigil - average probably at best, some would say not even that
2017
1. 9 J. Ross - for a top ten pick his production/availibility has been much lower than that, thus far pretty much a fail.
*2. 48 J. Mixon - very good
3. 73 J. Willis - fail, gone
2018
1. 21 B. Price - pretty much fail up to now, will it change ?
2. 54 J. Bates - average player
*3A 77 S. Hubbard - very good
3B 78 M. Jefferson - fail
2019
1. 11 J. Williams - hasn't played a snap yet
2. 52 D. Sample - limited snaps then went on IR what 5th game ?
3. 72 J. Pratt - came on a bit late but jury is still out
That's three players above average out of 17 chances in the first three rounds in the last 5 drafts. Are there players that could still turn out ? Sure
But what matters are results, and the results have been bad no matter how you spin it. For a team that relies so heavily on the draft the success rate has to be twice what it has been.
and whats the average of teams getting very good players to bust in the same scenarios?
