Taken from The Great Blue North Draft Report
Draft Grades:
November 10
(12:01 AM): Grades in; ‘Boys, south Florida guys get As… Once again our crack scouting staff has emerged bleary eyed from our war room having checked the tapes and re-run the data with mid-season grades on all 32 NFL teams’ 2005 rookie classes. As we have noted in our weekly rookie reports, this has not been a particularly productive year in the NFL for first-year players. Indeed, just 3 teams – Dallas, Miami and Tampa Bay - received As, although there a lot of Bs. For the record, Miami RB Ronnie Brown, the second player selected this year, is our pick for the top offensive rookie of the year to date, edging out Chicago QB Kyle Orton, while Cincinnati LB Odell Thurman beat out Denver CB Domonique Foxworth for defensive honors. All this comes with the huge caveat that it takes several years for a draft to really come into focus. We all based our grades almost entirely on productivity to date and not future potential. As such, teams and/or players can be hurt because a player is hurt or is playing behind a solid veteran.
