Nice post, I am not doing the points thing for now but I'll talk about my favorite drafts so far.

Right now I am loving what the Giants did. Banks/Schmitz/Hyatt trio should be impactful right away.

Aside from loving me some Cam Smith and Devon Achane.

Love the Raiders first two picks. And the Chargers got themselves some players, not that I wanted too see Herbert get anymore talent on offense.

Dallas over-drafted for the second year in a row.

Cardinals trade down and trade back up was marvelous, still getting their top target. Picking up the extra first next year from Houston could be HUGE, along with the third from Tennessee to let them draft Levis. I was really down on that franchise going into the off season but i like what they did yesterday.

Bears got Darnell Wright, DJ Moore, Zach Pickens, Carolina's 2024 first and 2025 second for the first pick in the draft and along with Arizona are in the drivers seat to land Marvin Harrison Jr. next year.

Giving a guy who is going to be a productive NFL player 0 points is a silly way to grade.

I don't care if you don't like a guy or hate the position value or whatever, these teams are not getting 0 return on all those players.

I know, I have to draw the line somewhere and go by my ranking. For example, if we take J-Offerdahls's list of top 100, we draw the line at 101, and everyone after that gets 0 points. Players ranked in top 190 get 1, 2, to 5 points. That's how it goes here.

I don't do the points thing either.

But i really like what the Eagles, Steelers, Bears, Colts and Jets did.
- The Eagles and Steelers knocked it out of the park with the guys that fell to them. They didn't overthink it.
- For the Colts, i'm not a Richardson fan but did like Brents and Rush and liked the value where they got Downs, Freeland, Adebawore and Hull. Mallory could be a good receiving target although that's all he'll be.
- For the Bears, Wright comes with some risk (high talent but high risk), but i really liked Stevenson, Pickens and Terrell Smith. Noah Sewell may not pan out with his speed but R5 is well worth it for that guy.
- For the Jets, I was take off guard by the McDonald pick, although he was highly productive and crafty as a rusher, but i though Tippmann was a solid get for Rodgers, Carter was a guy i was high on and Abanikanda was a steal imo, to allow Breece Hall to take his time returning from injury. And while Kuntz has his challenges, needing to become a blocker and show more physicality on contested catches, his athletic profile is incredibly good.....and you're getting him super late.

The Bengals and Seahawks got a few guys at really good value.

 

[LargoFin]

The Saint too had an amazing draft. I think AT Perry puts them at 12 points. I incorrectly input his frame size. He is borderline first round pick, like Jalin Hyatt. So, I think the Saints need to be in the winner category with that adjustment, they aced the draft.

Yes I do think they did well, especially with Bresee and Foskey back to back. I think Bresee’s best days are ahead after everything he dealt with the last few years. SaldiverI in the 4th looked like good upside value and Perry going 7th, a 6-3 receiver with sun 4.5 speed who produced, could be a steal.

I also liked what Pittsburgh did. Even though I thought Detroit took some players a little early (Gibbs and Campbell), the end result is they added a lot of talent.

You nailed the teams that did well IMO. There's a reason Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are in the running most years.

The Steelers know who they are. That hasn't really changed much over the years with those blue collar, physical, football players.

A lot to be said for stability within an organization.
