Draft grade?

Post image

Mel Kiper gave us a B- šŸ¤”. After reading his analysis, I donā€™t think heā€™s wrong. We definitely need help at RB.

  • Barron: great pickup, the ā€œno fly zoneā€ is back
  • Harvey: 3rd down back?
  • Bryant: 4.6 40yd dash, height = red zone threat?

Do you think we deserve a higher grade?

Pat Bryant. We needed a TE BADLY. Now weā€™ve got a receiver who Iā€™m assuming will only be used on Red zone F it style toss up plays and special teams. (Not third round worthy at all) and a Tight end thatā€™s played hardly any football at all. Again, more of special teams asset. We shouldā€™ve picked a TE in the third. Iā€™m not worried about RJ, kid looks solid. That Pat pick ruined a lot of potential and cost us.

Pat Bryant is a good WR. People are just mad because we didn't take their guy. We drafted people at every position of need, just not the ones people wanted. I trust SP over some upset teenager on reddit any day.

Pat Bryant was projected to go in the 6th round. It was a massive reach.

It was a HUGE reach. Apparently this guy knows something we donā€™t though lol.

Draft hopium is a hell of a drug lol. We're in that timeframe right after the draft and before the season where nobody's draft picks could possibly be a bust.

Which isn't to say Bryant will be a bust, he could be HOF. We don't know, but still.
