NFL Draft: Saints - Charting Trade Value

K Major · 05-01-2020, 08:31 AM

Sort of off topic but Brian Balldinger (former Eagle) was on WFAN last week giving his opinions about the Philly draft.

He wasn't in love with the J Raegor pick ... especially considering J Jefferson (who he thought was head and shoulders the best route runner in the draft) was still on the board. He also thought the LB they picked in the middle rounds had a low draft grade, questionable tape ... was a stretch & often disappeared in a lot of games.

In his mind, “Just about every pick they made seemed to be driven by analytics, not production or projecting to the NFL or anything like that.’’

I thought that was an interesting perspective.
