Re: Grading the Saints NFL Draft
I don't see how anyone can give this 2016 NFL Draft anything but an A or at worst a B-plus
1. Potential (talent) of players selected - A Very little bust potential and all have high ceilings. 2. Character of players selected - A All seem to be very high character guys. 3. Work ethic of players selected - A All seem to be team players and very hard workers. No lazy downside to any of them 4. How well the players fit our scheme? - A Disruptive DT that can play 4-3 DT or 3-4 DE5. Did we reach for anybody? No. not one. 6. Do all the players address a need (holes and depth) ? Yes, absolutely especially if you include the UDFA's. 7. How well did we maneuver during the draft - C I would have liked to have traded down for more picks in a deep draft, but it appears everyone wanted to trade down and there were very few takers 8. UDFA haul? A-plus. I think our reputation for giving UDFA's a fair shot at a roster spot is exactly why we landed so many top UDFA's, in my opinion. Thats 2 years in a row we aced the UDFA market. Obviously no one knows for sure until 2 or 3 years down the road, but based on what we all know right now, this draft class is a solid A. |
