Take Burrow out and hand's down it's 2nd rounders. Even with Burrow in there, I'd probably still go second round.

I mean, first round you've got Jonah and Burrow, both of which look solid (in Burrow's case, outstanding) but neither one has a full season playing because of injury. Second round, you've got several starters and guys contributing.

To me, it only gets worse when you go back to 2010.

2010: Gresham, Dunlap. Easy call
2011: Green, Dalton. Probly Green, he had a lot of good years. But I can see where it would be debatable.
2012: Dre, Zeitler. I'd still take Zeitler today.
2013: Eifert, Bernard. Toss up for me. Eifert was great in the 3.5 games he played each season, Gio isn't that kind of talent but he's more dependable.
2014: Dennard, Hill. Yup. That's how bad this draft was.
2015: Og, Fisher. About as bad as the year before.

Gotta modify a couple:

2012: Zeitler and Dre were first round, Still was 2nd round.
2013: Eifert vs. Gio-van and Hunt

2012, 1st round is no-brainer. 2013, still a toss-up, but Gio-van has definitely contributed more than Eifert.

2014 was fine for a draft; Dennard had a number of good, solid years with us and Hill had 3 solid-superb years with us.

He had 30 TDs in 3 years, leading the league in rushing TDs, one of those years. If he doesn't fumble, he's considered one of the greatest RBs in our history, even with his low YPC in 2015.

2014 is definitely the 2nd round and is nowhere near the 2015 draft. Not even close.
