I'm pretty sure they feel EVERY pick they have made was good. They do have a tad more experience than ANY of us ... and the so called experts that have never really drafted a player in their life.

Weird draft for us. Adebo is the only good pick we’ve made.

That's just our norm.

With pass rushing being a premium, I'm anxious to see what Nielson can do with Payton Turner. He was basically playing out of position for the majority of his time in Houston. He pretty interesting.

Overall I think it's a C grade wise but there is definitely potential to outperform that. I can't really say I hated or disliked any pick. There's just a good bit of unknown.

That is the nature of the beast known as the NFL Draft. Nobody knows for certain how any of the drafted players are going to end up performing. Every year there are fairly unknown players who end up being great. Just as every year there are uber hyped players that simply do not ever cut it. It is and always will be an inexact science.

Daviyon Nixon fell to the 5th round?!

Who's that? Perhaps the real drafters are not as high on him as the fake ones.

Carolina is having a phenomenal draft.

Jaycee Horn is the only player I've heard of. That's only because he's Joe's son. We'll know exactly how good or bad the draft was in three years. You mean they've picked a bunch of guys that Mel McShay likes, right? Keeping my fingers crossed that they suck.

Horn was my #1 target. Love the kid. I was hoping he’d fall.

Nobody was letting anyone trade up, that for sure.
