You can't judge a draft solely on how many "starters" came out of them. That's a very Mike Brown way of looking at it.
For example, Tom Brady as a 6th rounder was possibly the best draft pick ever. Jerome Simpson wasn't a good draft pick, but he did start.
Exactly. The Browns probably got like 5 "starters" in the Julio Jones trade, but Julio Jones is still more valuable to a team than all of them combined. I'd take 1 JJ Watt over 20 Margus Hunts. Or 1 Peyton Manning over 40 Blaine Gabberts.
