I wondered the same thing while compiling this to be honest. And to be fair we all know the draft is a crap shoot. The best of teams with the best GM's, scouting dept's and so on miss, a good bit I'm sure. But i doubt they fail to retain, cheap out, and so on at the rate we do. I could be wrong.
I feel we've reached in the draft, Sample cough Sample for example more than others. To be fair Sample has been a good blocking TE for us. But as a pass catcher just not 2nd round value.
The one constant during this has been the...... drum roll please...... Brown family running the show.
