Interesting stat showing which teams value the draft

Most NFL draft boards do not have 32 players with a first round grade.

The Seahawks are the most recent example of this. They felt that there was only 15 legit 1st rounders last year. So they opted to trade their 1st for Jimmy Graham.

That is exactly the ploy for the Vikings selecting Bridgewater. They wanted him under the 5th year option.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
