I think it lowers the value of veterans like an Emanuel Sanders who is on his last leg, probably makes his contract a one or two year deal with low guarantee so if that team does get one of these rookies they can get out . A guy like AJ for instance is going to have suitors who want to win now but have slightly longer term aspirations.
Overall the depth of a class like this simply pushes these guys later in the draft. You will be drafting guys on day 3 who will be pushing for regular season reps.
Thanks for the opinion, it makes complete sense.
On another draft trend related topic. It's been fairly well noted by many football fans that CFB just hasn't been turning out NFL ready OTs in recent years. Largely in part to the style of offense featured in many of the successful CFB programs. It's also been said that this is the best OT draft in a few years, do you agree with that? (In my opinion, the interior OL stock is the same as it has always been. That's why I'm asking specifically about the Tackle position)
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
