Gresham was also not bad. He had the 11th most yards by a tight end between 2010-2014. He also stabilized that position for the bengals for a period of time. 2x pro bowler. Gresham, statistically, had a more productive year than Mike last year, maybe the best season by a bengals TE ever in 2011.
I would assume that MOST teams first round pick hit rate looks similar.
The average hit rate for the first round is 57%.
Defining "Hit”:
A "hit" can be defined in various ways, but common indicators include a player securing a starting role, signing a second contract with their original team, or being selected to a Pro Bowl.
Jackson was one of the best corners in the league when playing man, he just couldn't figure out how to play in Zone to save his life.
