I loved our draft. We needed the interior linemen and the corners desperately. I also think folks are underplaying the need for RB. Wilson and Wayne are only signed through this year. Mostert is 30 with only 2 years left. We needed fresh blood at that position.

B.. .. we got our franchise QB of the future ( Hopefully ). Two big nasty O-Linemen. Not sure about trading up for Rb or drafting two of them at that but we'll see how they perform come season time.

Well, that is a pretty happy vote! 154 votes to date. And strong support. Nice.

Qb, two OL, two RB. They trying build a bully. Like the old Harbaugh teams.

Yeah the vote is skewed.
1. People are giving a higher score because mac jones was not the selection. Their sense of relief is evident.
2. Proof? keep the same draft but with mac instead of lance . If Mac jones was the pick, you'd be seeing Fs across the board.

C+ until Lance proves himself.
He's an unknown quantity at this point so I scratched him from the average.

Getting bigger to reduce injuries. Let's hope we won't lose speed advantage.

To be fair the first pick always holds the most weight.

As it should. And when the team have traded up for it the weight it carries should be very significant. Really, the only thing that matters about this draft is whether or not Lance is a success. Everything else can be dealt with.If Jones had indeed been the pick then it would have been F's across the board for that same reason.

Can't give a grade until their #1 draft pick hits the field.

I understand weight, but people are simply not even looking at the rest of the draft.

Yeah me too. Can't rely on constant UFA gems either. Glad to get a top end talent to develop at the RB position. Great to see the OL get some depth. Felt they address all of the needs here.

2 1sts and a 3rd is roughly an entire draft worth of capital (and honestly probably more)

im happy with the draft
1) we picked maybe my favorite qb with thehighest potential (outside lawrence)
2) we addressed what i consider the two biggest needs of the team (RG and CB)
3) we drafted a potential top RB in Sermon
