The 1974 Steelers draft is widely considered the top draft class overall.

 

That Steelers draft produced four (4) Hall of Famers:

 

Swann, Lambert, Stallworth and Webster.

 

Other all time great draft classes include the 1986 49ers (Haley, Rathman, McKyer, Griffin, Wallace, John Taylor), the 1985 Bills (Bruce Smith, Derrick Burroughs, Andre Reed), 1987 Bills (Conlan, Odomes, Leon Seals, Keith mcKellar, House Ballard, and traded for Cornelius Bennett).

 

There are others that don't readily leap to mind, though soon Seattle's recent draft classes have to warrant inclusion.

 

Hopefully, this year's Jaguars' class will be in those discussions.

 

Good stuff, thanks B. 

 

Yeah, it would be nice to finally see the Jags remembered for something great like that. 

 

The Bills had 2 stellar drafts almost back to back there.....no wonder they dominated that Conference for a good long time. If it wasn't for some equally good drafting by the Cowboys, the Bills probably would have won multiple SB's.
