Grade the OVERALL 2015 Saints draft?

Rugby Saint II · 05-04-2015, 01:14 PM

I am more excited about our rookies day after day. I'm still learning what they bring to the table and I have to say that our members give us some incredible write ups and video.

I'd have to say B. The only problem I have is that with their first pick they mostly likely don't have a first year starter in Peat. I know he will be good for the future or in case of injury but I still feel like they could have gone another way there. Drafting someone else or moving back for extra picks and a later OT to groom or fill in on reps.

Also was hoping they could get a big body TE late for some goal line reps.

A-.

All the players fit our system, all have non-stop motors, leadership skills, fast and furious, and mostly on defense.

Can't grade players until year 3 or later, but we can grade the prospects and I give our prospects an A-minus.

There were no WTF's or square pegs for round holes anywhere.

Great minds think alike - I went A- too. We're smart. The rest of these people are thugs.

Peat is the reason i am at a C+. I need to see him handle speed in the NFL and improve to blocking at the second level to fit in our zone blocking scheme. he does that B+.

We should be grading the draft from 4 years ago. This one is an Incomplete until they start putting on the pads and playing some football or cleared of any murder charges lol.

You are not wrong.
To paraphrase an Alan Parsons quote:
The draft, Euphoria, has always been there, and it's hard to be around the draft and try to be totally natural. You never shake that off.
