Not to say that they haven't had some good drafts what with Burrow, Higgins, Wilson, and Chase, but % making the roster/still being on the roster isn't really a good determination of that.

I agree there is a difference between simply making the team is not a measure of success.  John Ross and Tyler Shelvin were both examples of that.  Unfortunately, though, not every player can be a star, so we have to look at players who have contributed successfully to the team.  For some, that means improving every year or learning that their role is a backup or a special teams player

A successful draft is choosing players who contribute to the team.  And Duke and his team have done that over the past 4 years with a good mix of stars, good, and  back of roster guys
