I noticed some of this on twitter where teams decided not to use the 5th year option on this or that player. Quietly I was happy that we did so with FredBeard. Too bad this article seems to forget that he was one of the better picks after the fact.

Here's some real talk for you, post-draft: Not all the first-round picks made last week are going to be NFL stars.
We're reminded of this now every year around this time when NFL teams must make decisions on the first-round picks they made a mere three years ago. Optimism was high then, even for what looks like a putrid draft now, but in many cases it's back down to earth with news trickling in for which teams are picking up those players' fifth-year options.
In short: The 2013 draft was pretty awful. And right now, it's really sinking in as teams are now having to admit to a lot of their mistakes.
