[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 1062234, member: 12283"] I'm just going to give grades to our division and then the ones I feel really strongly about. [B]NFC: -Bears, Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan, #10, [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]D[/COLOR]: [/B]Loveland is a great prospect, but the Bears did not need a TE, the positional value is poor, it takes TE's a long time to adjust to the league, and the track record of highly drafted tight ends is wretched. [B]-Packers, Matthew Golden, WR, Texas, #23, [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]A[/COLOR]: [/B]I love the player and the fit and the value was great for where they were selecting. [B]-Vikings, Donovan Jackson, OL, Ohio State, #24, [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]F[/COLOR]: [/B]This grade assumes that they could have traded down-- they have four picks in this draft and they turned down the option to gain draft capital so that they could draft a 2nd round quality iOL. [B]-Lions, Tyleik Williams, DT, Ohio State, #28, [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]D[/COLOR]: [/B]Williams is a good player, but the Lions are already sound at DT and desperately need help at edge; they neglected a need with lots of talent on the board in order to take a guy who is redundant to what they have in-house. [B]"A" Grades: -Browns, Mason Graham, DT, Michigan, #5: [/B]This is more about all the capital they got via the trade down than the player they chose. -[B]Steelers, Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon, #21: [/B]This is clouded by the medical concerns, but if he's healthy, the Steelers got one of the "steels" of the draft. -[B]Chargers, Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina, #22: [/B]This pick is taking some heat because of the other needs on this roster, but I love when teams know who they are and lean into their identity. Hampton has been overshadowed through the process because of how transcendent Jeanty is, but he really is a phenomenal RB prospect. [B]-Bills, Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky, #30: [/B]There's a real shot that Hairston is the best corner in this class and the Bills nabbed him at #30. Love that value. [B]"F" Grades: -Jaguars, Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado, #2: [/B]They are basically spending two 1st round picks and a 2nd on a 190# guy who is going to try to play both ways. If it wasn't for the 2-way thing, I think Hunter would have been talked about in the range of 10-20. -[B]Colts, Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State, #14: [/B]I think Warren is a manufactured touch type of player who lacks the length to be a legit in-line tight end. -[B]Giants, Jaxson Dart, QB, Mississippi, #25: [/B]This would never have happened but for the fact that the current regime is desperately trying to save their jobs. [B]-Falcons, James Pearce, DE, Tennessee, #26: [/B]Trading a future 1st round pick for a non-QB is always a bad idea, plus the board is littered with edge rushers. [/QUOTE]
