Quote:All around it doesn't seem like there are many players to get excited about in this class. QB class is embarrassingly weak, pass rushers aside from a few names are weak, a few ok corners and only like 2 decent free safeties and TE's.
When I got to around pick #20 of the first mock draft I tried after the combine I said to myself, "dang, this draft class is weak!" So yes, I think it is.
I don't think this draft class is Weak, I just think that it's not easy. By that I mean that there are 5-7 guys that are showing traits of being dynamic edge rushers. The problem is picking one. I think that this is the first year in a while that we haven't had a guy projected as a sure fire can't miss Franchise LT in a while, but at the same time that means that you are going to be able to get the first or second tackle off the board at 12-15 range and that will probably push a prospective LT candidate down to us at the top of the second round to kick to the right side.
This IS the weakest projected crop of Free Safeties I have seen in a while.
And remember, when they drafted the Brady's the Sherman's the Chancellors, of the world going into draft day they didn't think those were players that made drafts look all that weak or strong but time will tell. The legion of boom is one of the most dominant secondaries that we have seen in a long time and when you think about it they hit on a first round guy in earl Thomas and then hit two home runs in the mid rounds that are going to carry that team for 5-7 years.
It's not about batting a thousand, but I think that in every draft at almost every pick you're presented with the opportunity to draft a player that outperforms their draft stock. You do that enough and over time you start winning football games.
There will be star players coming out of this draft.
We just have to hope that the jags find a few of them.
Quote:Yup its been a while since I liked this many RB prospects
1990 was a strong RB class.
I don't know if this draft will produce an Emmitt Smith, but there are lots of guys in this class that can help some teams.
