If your team is one that is already competing, then you can afford to use 4th round picks on projects.

But this team sucks ass.

A 4th rounder should be a contributor.

Absolutely, which is why guys like Washington and Colin Brown were head scratchers.

Take that as a compliment.

Amazing how you can write off an entire draft class after 1 year.

1 and done.

its not writing them off one bit. I'm pretty sure most of us feel that Tyson will develop into a good player, as will Magee...the problem is who we passed on to select them.

Its a lack of value comprehension, draft-wise.

What do you see from the class? Jackson can never justify his pick...then after that we have a bunch of blah mid rounders.

I'm not writing them off.

Doesn't look good, though.

Even if all those guys become their absolute peaks, it's still at best an ok draft class.

If 3 of those 7 are solid contributors, it was a decent draft not an abortion.

It is easy to look afterward and say we should have done this or that. The draft is littered with failures.

That being said you can't do that every year and be successful. You have to hit on 1 or 2 good drafts to turn a team around.Then you have to be respectable. The Chiefs were turned around with just a few drafts, the rest were suspect.

The Colts, Patriots and Steelers haven't nailed every draft.

When you have the 3rd pick you should be pulling better than "decent draft"
