"If forced to take a premature position, my guess would be that the Packers won't gain much game-changing impact from their nine-man draft class this season and will realize only a modest amount when the final tally is made a decade from now." http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_25745282/green-bay-packers-rookie-class-wont-have-much
This in spite of 3 picks given 8s or 9s out of a maximum of 10 points designed to gauge a "player's chance to really contribute as a rookie and the second number is his chance to really contribute during his career in Green Bay". The majority of the information he bases this on is "countless interviews with general managers, personnel directors, scouting directors and area scouts in the last five months".
Maybe "game changing impact" differs from "really contribute" in his scale, but if we get play from 3 of the picks that "really contribute" this year and during the careers, I would call the draft a success.
I really wonder how this guy thinks.
