If you think Duke is the lead dog as far as drafting, he most definitely should be on the shit list. The drafts have not been good, corner. Really don't see how that's debatable. 1 pro-bowler in the last 7 drafts?
I disagree with you. I think our drafts have been solid as of late besides the year where we drafted the o linemen.
Last year we had Ross who i feel still has upside and has shown he can get in the end zone. I don't think he will end up being a bust.
Lawson is considered the steal of the draft and would be a top 10 pick if they did the draft again.
Joe Mixon was a steal in the second round.
This year we drafted a C that will probably be a Bengal for the next 10 years.
Bates picked in the second round would probably be a top 15 pick if the draft was done again.
Hubbard in the 3rd round was a f'n steal.
We've done fairly well in the draft, most observers think that is the one strength of the front office, we tend to get good value especially in the mid rounds.
