5th Best OT (rd 1-2) Taken last in the 2nd
3rd best TE (rd 2-3) Taken last in the 3rd
11th best DT (rd 3) Taken 25th in the 4th
2nd best OC (rd 3-4) Taken 27th in the 5th

All but Robinson was taken nearly a full round after their projection

That has A written all over it.

No site referencing, just my own opinions as to the prospect ranks. And again the projections you are going off of are going to vary with different draft expert sites that you reference. I voted B and cant say A, just because of the players we selected, as a whole seem more like high potential picks rather than proven players. Brown only has 2 years starting on the line, Graham has 1 year of college ball, Woods is a 1 year starter without much production from a stats view, Robinson only had 7 picks in 2.5 years starting and showed inconsistency.

I think if all picks live up to their potential 100%, you have a high level man to man corner, bookend left tackle, the next Antonio Gates, a starting DT and starting C. If that happens, A+, but Ill go with B right after.
