seriously
outside of the first 5 picks (and even then, who knows) ... tell me who you'd rather have in this draft than Jimmy Graham?
First round picks are like a coin flip ... 50% of the time, they'll be good starters at an affordable roster price. Of that 50% of the time, 20% of the time they'll be borderline pro bowlers and 5-10% all-pros. The other side of the coin? Busts.
You take our franchise history and our two best 1st round picks (Gonzalez, Thomas) ... which are two EPIC hits and two hall of famers ... and I still think I'd trade their careers, both of them, for 1 Russell Wilson. Personally, 100% certain. But I can see how some are more 50/50 on that one.
For Luck? Be real. Would you trade DT's established career and Tony G's established career, pretend you can have those two careers all over again from the start, together at the same time ... or would you take Andrew Luck?
It's a no brainer. It's Luck.
So think about that when you consider the "value" of 2 first round picks.
