These are all top 100 picks just in the last 4 years. There's been huge misses and busts.
No, no one hits on every player but if you look at our drafting as a whole, really since AJ and Andy, it's been sub-par. And that description is being generous.
I've got to hand it you. I've come across a lot of homers on this board through the years and you might just be king of them all. To dismiss such an obvious statement (Our recent drafting has been poor) is next level. Kudos.
Because you are just remembering the bad picks. And you can count Fisher, but if he hadn't suffered the heart issue, who knows what he would have been.
2019 picks are still to see how they work out, but there are several promising players.
2018- Jessie Bates, Sam Hubbard, Andrew Brown, Auden Tate.
2017- Mixon, Carl Lawson, Ryan Glasgow and everyone's favorite Jake Elliott (he was drafted, so for this conversation he counts)
2016- William Jackson III, Tyler Boyd, Andrew Billings, Clayton Fedj.
2015- admittedly, outside of Uzomah, this draft was a stinker.
So, like I said, the draft is a crapshoot, but don't act like we never draft any good players
