Sure, just don't confuse it with a final grade. Everyone knows it takes 3 years to weed out the busts and develop the stars, everyone.

Its simply an opinion about how well you selected based on the information on hand about the prospects you selected and where you selected them, how they may fit into your system, etc etc.


But if you pick a guy in the 1st round that the consensus opinion of is that he's a 7th round prospect, you can assume its not a good pick. Conversely, if you grab a guy in the 4th that most thought was a 2nd round talent, you did good.

We didn't do all that well based on where our players were slated to go by numerous draft experts, former GM's and former players turned analysts.
