I'm not sure why anyone is trying to project what drafts were good. Outside of the top 10 everything is a coinflip as to whether the player will be in the league in 2 years.

It's fun and the last nuggets of football content we can consume for the next three months, but I hear your point.

Almost every post-first round pick gets around a B+ for filling a need, but questions on how the talent will translate to the pro level. The consensus lovely picks, though, usually end up staying lovely.

There honestly seems to be much fewer this year than in past seasons. I'm seeing a lot more of the sentiment that "grades are dumb until the draft class is 3-4 seasons old".

Heck, *we* don't even have a draft grade thread this year.

For the best. I think the only Bills picks I've outright hated were Witner(I wanted Ngata so bad) and Maybin.
Only one of those picks was actually terrible, but I actually liked the Manuel pick, so I'm obviously an idiot.

Last year was the most I ever liked a Bills draft class. Can't say it's really paid dividends so far!

The 49ers would have taken him at three if the Bears took Solomon at 2. Could you imagine that for a first selection of the John Lynch era?

The Bills lose like a billion players to free agency this year and still don't get a comp pick because they signed, like, Vlad Ducasse and Stephen Hauschka.

Unreal.
