That could be a mixed of good and bad. Good is you drafted a good player, kept him and he got lots of snaps
Bad could be you drafted bad players and they didn’t see the field
Jax is because they never had any extra picks. Never get comp picks so they aren’t drafting as many players
Not sure how you never get a single comp pick

I think they like to have levels of stars. They like the Micah zeke types that have podcasts and stuff. Jsut a few. Then they like having their own home grown who keep us attached to the team. Why constantly resign the same mediocre guys to minimal deals ? How good can they be we never win big

Their roster construction is weirdly calculated. They’ll be like man f all the receivers this year or something random.

That list is way off

Last 5 years (2018-2022) for LV:

Maxx Crosby: 3665 snaps, drafted 2019

Colton Miller: 5163 snaps, drafted 2018

Josh Jacobs: 2523 snaps, drafted 2019

Hunter Renfrow: 2120 snaps, drafted 2019




That’s already 13,471 with only 4 players, not counting ALL the other dudes they drafted (and only counting offensive snaps not special teams), yet they’re listed under 12,000 in that tweet. Who knows if any team on this list is right.

This would have to be divided by total number of picks to be meaningful
Also circumstances where certain teams have positions that suck so bad or devastated by injury that they had no choice but to play non-53 talent. Could be a minor impact on the list, or could be more than that

I was gonna say it could be bad because you simply may be playing players you shouldn’t be like Trysten Hill and Taco Charlton….

Welp……

This is great in the sense that the guys they draft often find their way on to the field.

It’s bad when you realize that it may be about them counting on, and/or overrating their own draft picks vs other teams draftees. Or just, ya know, not being qualified to know the difference. Whichever.

Just don't count snaps played in playoff victories over the same period.

Very true
And when you draft a guy high you aren’t gonna cut bait for a few years. Hill never played many snaps, don’t remember how much playing time taco got

Yeah I guess those are bad examples because they wouldn’t play them as much it seemed.
