so far so good

if Escobar can continue to be a threat downfield and in the redzone, that draft selection looks to be good too

For the first time in the last three seasons I'm not worried about the oline's pass blocking and Frederick is a huge part of that.

I like Frederick, Escobar at 2 was a waste to me, I'd like to be wrong but three number 2's at TE nd two of them are on other teams isn't good. Don't know who else was available there but I think they could have gone a different direction.

i'm with you, i hated that pick there. but if he continues to produce you have to give them credit

So far so good, with all their picks this year, Fredricks,Escobar, Williams and Wilcox..... looking forward to Holloman and Randle developing into contributors at some point this season as well, if not definitely by next year, this can be a really good draft

So far so good. He got schooled little bit last week but Poe will do that to many Olinemen.

The jury is still out however I like what I'm seeing so far... Still pissed at the sacks by Poe last week against the Chiefs but overall he's played very solid.

The 2013 draft might be one of Jerry and Jason's best draft yet....love the young guys.....(except TWILL he needs more time)

Definite upgrade at the position with a high ceiling

Anyone who hates this draft class needs to review their judging criterion.

Lots of immediate help with tons of upside.

TFred: Proven very solid in the middle with one rough outing so far including even the 5 pre-season games. Dude is a hoss in there and clearly relies on strength.
Escobar: Cry all you want about TE but the Pats used two TE sets to change the way the game is played. Escobar is clearly a natural and long pass catcher that has real value. Witten has got to start getting some snaps off before they kill the poor guy.
TWill: While he certainly can look like a deer in the headlights at times, so did Dez as a rookie. His blocking has been superb and he certainly has NFL caliber skill. Seeing another Miles hammy injury today, TWill wasn't some luxury.
Wilcox: Played great today and looks the part.

More than fair to complain about some other draft classes but this one has been very good.

Started off better than Costa and will only get better. Great draft pick.
