Grade the 2010 draft

Soon we will be swamped with draft grades. The wise will admonish us that drafts cannot truly be graded for 2-3 years.

With that in mind, this was our 2010 draft:
1/4 Trent Williams T Oklahoma
4/103 Perry Riley LB LSU
6/174 Dennis Morris TE Louisiana Tech
7/219 Terrence Austin WR UCLA
7/229 Erik Cook C New Mexico
7/231 Selvish Capers T West Virginia

Here were the first ten picks that year:
1 St. Louis Rams Sam Bradford QB Oklahoma
2 Detroit Lions Ndamukong Suh DT Nebraska
3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Gerald McCoy DT Oklahoma
4 Washington Redskins Trent Williams T Oklahoma
5 Kansas City Chiefs Eric Berry SS Tennessee
6 Seattle Seahawks Russell Okung T Oklahoma State
7 Cleveland Browns Joe Haden CB Florida
8 Oakland Raiders Rolando McClain MLB Alabama
9 Buffalo Bills C.J. Spiller RB Clemson
10 Jacksonville Jaguars Tyson Alualu DT California

Please grade that draft.

I'd say a C+

A for Trent, B for Riley and a C- or below for everyone else, since they were basically warm bodies.

Wrong thread

Man I don't even remember Dennis morris

He got traded to the Rams before his first training camp even ended

The picks that came out of the meaningful rounds were good and decent. C+ mostly because we didn't have the picks to do much better.

Overall, the draft sucked. I'd give it a C-/D+.

Our draft was a C+. We got an All pro LT and a starting MLB (giving it an A), but pretty much threw away our 2nd round pick for an aging QB and picked guys that don't even make practice squads from there, which would be an F-. So A and F- should round to about a C+ (sorta?)

that 2010 draft as a whole was awful. 1 QB who is sort of a franchise QB, a highly touted safety who isn't living up to the hype. A highly drafted RB who is just now getting good. Two great LTs. A very good CB. An overrated McCoy and a very good, but headcase DT in Suh. Speaking of headcases Rolando is doing nothing to help his draft's case. Being constantly arrested and just being ok on the field.

I'd say C+ just due to the lack of picks we have.

For me, I don't even really grade 6th and 7th rounders. Sure you get a guy like Morris every now and then, but they're total crap shoots.

So looking at rounds 1-5, we only had two picks. Trent Williams is slowly becoming one of the better left tackles in the league, as long as he keeps himself out of trouble. In addition, for a 4th round pick, I think Riley has been very productive.

Soon we will be swamped with draft grades. The wise will admonish us that drafts cannot truly be graded for 2-3 years.

With that in mind, this was our 2010 draft:
1/4 Trent Williams T Oklahoma
4/103 Perry Riley LB LSU
6/174 Dennis Morris TE Louisiana Tech
7/219 Terrence Austin WR UCLA
7/229 Erik Cook C New Mexico
7/231 Selvish Capers T West Virginia

7 Cleveland Browns Joe Haden CB Florida
8 Oakland Raiders Rolando McClain MLB Alabama
9 Buffalo Bills C.J. Spiller RB Clemson
10 Jacksonville Jaguars Tyson Alualu DT California

Please grade that draft.

Overall I'd say it was a B- draft. Sam is good, suh, McCoy etc are all pretty good. Trent Williams and okung are very good.
