I'll give it a B+. I would have liked to see OL addressed. I'm very happy with it though.

 

[skinsscalper]

Giving a grade would be dishonest on my part. I don't know enough about some of these guys to give an honest assessment. I hope for the best, though. The WR and TE sound intriguing.

I think he means based on everything you know. Not everyone is an expert on here. You can do it man, I believe in you!

 

[NeonNinja]

I love the Clai and Coale picks.

I like the Crawford and Hanna picks.

Wilber and Johnson not real sure on but hoping for best.

 

[mkindred]

B for me. I'm generally optimistic but am concerned oline wasn't addressed but am taking the wait and see approach. Would like to see what happens with UDFA and what other linemen may be available in FA.

 

[Air Force One]

I gave a A+

They drafted defense and that's what I wanted.

 

[panchucko]

Clairborne and Hanna make it an A for me

 

[daschoo]

Would have liked to see the O-Line adressed but you obviously can't address everything in the draft and hopefully this has gone a long way to improving the defence. The Claiborne pick looks to instantly improve the secondary and I had Wilber in my mock so I'm happy to have finally gotten a pick right.

 

[Ren]

B

+ Got the best CB in the draft and got what looks like a potentially decent DE


- Another AOA type reach and in the 4th and we ignored OL and that's gonna cost us big

Looks like Jerry and his boys should have studied a bit harder for these tests. Ugh!!! These last 6 players look a lot better going than coming....Looks like Romo will still be running for his life and throwing last quarter interceptions to lose 5 more games on the last drive....

This team is headed down...down...down my friends and we might just become a new version of the Aints....


I think you need to lower the choices to D and F...:bang2:

C-

2.0 GPA

Not good.

Johnson and McSurdy were just complete throw away picks and really brought the score down.

You let a 7th round pick bring your score down?

 

[slomoxn]

NFLN just gave them an "A".

 

[Manwiththeplan]

B-

I like the first 2 picks. Mo could be one of the top CBs in the league in a few years and quite frankly we likely weren't going to want to extend Mike Jenkins and we hopefully won't be in a position to draft a CB as good as Claiborne, while we can likely get a good G, C or S at any point in round 1.

Tyronne Crawford is a developmental pick, but I really like everything I'm hearing about him. Very productive, good athletic numbers, does need to get bigger, but I think he can contribute right away in packages.

Didn't like the 4th round. Either pick. I think there were bigger needs and we should've traded up a bit for a center instead of drafting a 4th OLB and a 4th/5th safety. They may have upside, but I think we missed an opportunity in round 4.

Really like Coale in round 5. I think he can contribute right away as a slot guy. I would still add Jabar Gafney if/when he's released because I don't think Coale will be much good right away on the outside, but a good pick.

Hanna is another pick I like. Speedy TE, with good size, not sure why Oklahoma didn't use him more, really hope it was a mistake on their part.

Don't have a problem with McSurdy, would've prefered a center, but we needed LB depth, so it's hard to knock LB depth over CB depth, O-line depth or any other position in the 7th.

 

[The Quest for Six]

C-, one starter in a draft where you could of came out of with three starters at the least.....second and third days of the draft seemed more like panic moves to me..

Are you comparing Matt Johnson to AOA?

 

[big dog cowboy]

Too early to grade but I gave it a B.

Other things will impact how much influence this draft class makes this year. We have a big free agent group coming in. Last years draft class also.

BTW NFLN gave us an A.

 

[cml750]

I gave an (A-). I see real possibilities that this could be an A+ draft.

1) I really believe Claiborne has the ability to become the best CB in the league. The guy is truly amazing. A+++++
2) Tyrone Crawford has a ton of potential. I see him contributing this year and starting next year. A-
3) Kyle Wilber has some upside to him and it never hurts to have extra pass rushers. B
4) Matt Johnson has me really excited. Looking at the film shows he has a lot of natural football instincts as well as speed and athletic ability. He could be a real find. He will be an immediate help on special teams and could challenge for the strong safety position in the next couple of years. B+ (based on potential)
5) Danny Coale looks to be very good value where we picked him. He is fast and a good route runner. I see him possibly challenging for the # 3 or # 4 WR spot. He really fills a need. A- (based on where we got him)
6) James Hanna is a very intriguing player. He has some ability and if a little bit of Witten's work ethic rubs off on him he could be really good. B
7) Caleb McSurdy will be a special teams player. B

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

I can't give a grade yet. Johnson, Hanna and McSurdy are not that familiar to me. The first few are very good picks and I like Coale. Honestly, he gives me visions of K-Mart from those great 90s teams.
