League_Champion Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I feel like the Jets should be #1. I thought KC and GB did really well to.

rajncajn Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I've never paid any attention to draft grades. Just go back and look at draft grades from previous seasons to see why. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonster Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 These grades are definitely a bit generous. I don't think the Vikings get an A-. This might be the draft to start lifting the Jets out of the doldrums though. It would be interesting for an actual scientific evaluation of draft grades and their correlation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go back and look at draft grades from previous seasons to see why. In 2012 Seattle went Bruce Irvin, Bobby Wagner, and Russel Wilson rounds 1 through 3. They got a bunch of F 'grades' in what ended up being a very good long term LB/Edge tweener and two future hall of gamers. I like the the draft and it's fun to chat about. But evaluating is largely useless until 2 or 3 years down the road minimum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answer for this study: weak correlation. https://www.google.com/amp/s/fivethirtyeight.com/features/sorry-but-nfl-draft-grades-cant-tell-you-who-had-a-good-draft/amp/ Edited May 1, 2022 by purplemonster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 2012 draft got the highest value ranking in the entire data set. Wowza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go back and look at draft grades from previous seasons to see why. Good example is the Saints 2017 draft. A lot of C's and B-'s. When all of them were A's. Those draft grades are bull crap. Like this year they gave the Saints a C- (a few other articles not this one) when its more of a B+. Also, they signed a couple really good UDFA.

Was this written in another language and translated? Some of the phrases are beyond odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
