Rate the Draft

I give it a B. I like the picks, though I still don't like the price that was paid for Trautman. The last guy is a crap shoot. If they drafted him to be a QB it's an awful pick. If they drafted him to be a Taysom clone...well, let's see if he can handle that.

I think that's the type of young QB that Payton is looking for. Stevens is one of those cocky confident type guys that has great athletic ability. I think as far as a passer, he believes he can mold him into one. I mean look at how well Taysom looks after just a few years under Payton's tutelage. Stevens isn't a horrible passer, but he's definitely not NFL ready. Payton will make him though.
