Overall an A+
With us moving to a 2-1-8 defense, I understand the need more for CBs.

If we get 2 all pro and 4 solid starters out of this draft and undrafted, I would be happy!

B!
Buckner and Garnett are both A++
If only they grabbed Kenneth Dixon or Devontae Booker with our 4th instead of Rashard Robinson I would give this draft at least an A-!! The value was theree!!
Other than that, I am fine with how the picks went!

I'd give the 1st round an A. Went downhill from there.

Originally posted by eman:....but ... at a time when he needs to hit atleast 4 starters and 2 impact players.. and we have tons of mediocricity at several positions and need some stiff competition (i can think of potential upgrades/future considerations could be had at Center, RG, TE, OLB, MLB).. Baalke goes out and gets 3 CB's and 2 backup OT's?????? I dont ever see teams teams drafting this many players from one position... then if you think that just 2 years ago, we invested heavily in the position with Jimmie Ward, Keith Reaser, Kenneth Acker and Dontae Johnson..
so fans.. hear me... in 2 years, we have had Ward, Reaser, Acker, Johnson, Redmond, Robinson and Prince.. that is 7 CB's picked!!! If a GM and scout duty is to evaluate talent, they should not draft more than few for the position. But when you are drafting 7 players to hopefully fill 2 spots, then it tells me you are not relying on your talent evaluations, but hoping that atleast 2/7 will turn out ok and you save your behind, while we neglect to upgrade other positions. If the argument is that well, there was no other holes to fill, then trade those picks for following years draft, so we can have boatloads of 4th/5th rounders which we could use to trade up and grab impact players...
I am really irritated and disappointed! really!. no way should a GM be given a pass when he pulls such crap...
baalke's first failed NFL experiment is draft as many ACL injuries and see if he hits on one and looks like a genious
his next failed experiment > draft as many players in one position that hopefull one of them will make you look brilliant.
According to your logic Seattle did the same with rbs and Carolina did the same with CBS so they are trying to save their behinds too.
Don't you think that they may actually have known they are taking 2 CBS in a row in the third and fourth????

All in on Buckner and Garnett. I like Blair, Cooper and QB (all 3 were at great value too). Prince has blazing speed and I hope he can step up to punt/kick returner with that speed. Theus might be alright.
Throw errryone else out the window, **** it...

These draft grades are based on 'feelings.' Can't give an accurate assessment on a draft's true success until a few seasons out.

Baalke turned the defensive roster over in one draft, in that case. lol

Buckner - A, easy pick top 10 pick but probably wanted stanley so had to take the next best option
Garnett - C+, was originally higher on this pick but he is a supbar pass blocker and probably wasn't necessary to trade up. Could have had Whitehair in the 2nd even if Garnett was gone.
ACL CB - F
STICK FIGURE CB - F
Burbury WR - B
the rest of the guys were all F's
Still didn't address OT, RB, WR, ILB with good prospects.
overall grade = F as in F baalke

Incomplete. Haven't seen them yet. That's the only answer.

I think a B is fair.
