Broaddus has 20 players with 1st round grades

That sounds about right.......I think I counted 20 from Brugler or Dana, can't remember which one.

Normal year is 18 to 20. Obviously there is some difference on each individual team who those 18 to 20 are.

I find this all so random and stupid. If you’re consistently ending up with less than 32 first round grades, you’re working with a bad definition of ‘first round grade’. But since all these clowns do it everyone pretends it make sense.

McShay has 14.

I disagree. If you have a grading system then you would have to adjust it year to year to have 32 or so players in your first round every year. All draft classes aren't equal and this is a weak one. It would make your actual grades meaningless.

20 seems awfully high for this year's class. Many are saying this class is pretty weak compared to other years.

Except you hear 18-20 every year (I've actually heard some people suggest 14 this year). Shouldn't there be some years in which the draft class is relatively strong and you have more than 32 first round grades? If that were the case I would agree with you. But it has to average out at 32 over time.

I get what you are saying. The grading system makes sense so you can try to compare a player from previous years, but not sure how they come to the conclusion a certain grade or higher means 1st round caliber player.

If it’s a weaker draft then you might have only 15-20 players with a first round grade, but I can’t ever recall a year where there were 30+ players with a first round grade. So either their definition of first round in correlation with a grade is off or virtually every draft is weaker than their standard.

It's a weak class at the top IMO. Most of the QBs this year are iffy, and the high-end talent is just not there outside of Carter and Anderson. Guys like Witherspoon, Skorensi, Tyree Wilson... those guys feel like they'd go in the teens most years.

But the more tape I watch, the more good football players I see around the 20-50 zone. I don't think we'll have a problem finding a guy who's worth our pick.

Johnson with zero hesitation. Like not even close for me.

 

[Malhavoc]

ZERO chance the board looks like that. Johnson and Porter both available ? Please….

Lool, what?

Why would it have to average out to 32 over time?

 

[dogberry]

What’s the typical number of second round grades?

Paris all day. Run game would be freaking amazing

Absolutely this.
