[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 880789, member: 9033"] No, the best way to evaluate is to look at the process that is used to draft players. The process is the only consistent factor; injuries and other things can affect the outcome, things the GM shouldn't be held liable for. So, for this recent draft, the process used was trading up for a project QB who won't play for 75% of his cheap rookie deal, drafting a large, heavily used RB next, and then drafting a FB/TE hybrid. That's not a good process for improving a team in the near term. There is a high likelihood that 2 of those 3 won't be making even modest contributions in their first two seasons on the team. You can say the only way to evaluate is how guys turn out, and that's fair if you ignore injuries and/or how other players affect the guy (e.g., not fair to evaluate a WR but ignore the quality of QB), but team building and cap construction are CERTAINLY things that don't need to be waited 2-3 years to evaluate.
