[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 951193, member: 6578"] More seasoned and draft prospects don't really go together honestly. There are very very few sure things in the draft, your likelihood may arguably be higher of course the higher you pick, but Burks was 3rd rounder - who essentially was the first hybrid lighter type LB we had really went with, vastly more the norm nowadays. He hasn't been anything special, but also hasn't done anything bad arguably as well - he is a solid ST'er on an otherwise terrible ST team. Would I have liked our 3rd to give us more - 100% - but the pick wasn't autrocious no matter how you sliced it; kid produced very well at Vanderbilt, his athleticism was awesome (RAS) and appeared to be projecting awesome at the next level especially for lighter coverage type sub packages the NFL was forcing you into more and more. Datone was just a miss, plain and simple - no one really thought he would be that terrible; dude put up some gaudy DL stats his years at UCLA and an astounding 19 tackles for loss that senior year. Love is really the only massively future minded pick we've selected in the first round or with our first rounders in years: 2021 - Stokes, played more than we ever intended or thought though 2020 - Love 2019 - Gary & Savage 2018 - Alexander 2017 - No first rounder 2016 - Kenny Clark 2015 - Damarious Randall 2014 - Ha-Ha 2013 - Datone Jones 2012 - Nick Perry 2011 - Derek Sherrod Out of all of those man we've done very well...with all but Jones and Randall not being day 1 starters for us (Sherrod was going to be)...Especially last five drafts we've done very well on the top round picking honestly.
