2010 NFL Draft Grades: Best & Worst Football Drafts Review
April 25, 2010 by luckylester
Grading the draft before the players even set foot on the field is a little ridiculous, I know – but isn’t it all? I mean, most everything “we” write about is predictions based stuff, and this is no different. I predicted the guys I thought were the best in the draft. I predicted the draft based on the value and talent of the players. And now, after the draft, I’m going to go on and predict how these players will show up, and give their new teams grades based on that. Except for the Ravens (listed 1st because they didn’t make a 1st round pick) the teams are listed based on where they picked in the first round. Here it goes.
