Hmmm, 3 23 year olds, talk about feeding off the scraps. The OL I picked 1st will at least be very useful for 7-8 seasons though..... and I needed a DL so at least I got one with already decent physicals.... but the rest of my top 20 or so were the youngsters and you nicked them all!

My top 3 were

1 Okpara
2 Crain
3 Reddick

Crain was really good and gone as #2. Jing Shui was also great.

I don't even remember my top 3.
Surely Otabaev was number one, with Reddick and Okpara also very close and great TE and FB in top 6(with also my 1st pick WR).

Naprzód Marsz! Grade: A-

Best pick: Tahir Abdulah WR (1rd, #30)
Unbelivable, that the best receiver in the draft droped to far in the first round. This pick is a real steal.

Questionable pick: Mats Tomczak LB (2rd, #62)
A real solid pick. This guy has everything to be great, if he can improve his physical skills.

Sleepy pick: Mihail Rusakov FB (3rd, #94)
The best of the rest. He was the fastest of the last 3 guys (all FBs)
(...)

Well, you rate my draft pick as one of the best in the league. I'm pretty satisfied only with 3rd pick, because I avoided Ks, Ps and QBs as well as the worst player in the draft(2*RB). Missed number one in the list by 1(!) pick only...

Otabayev was quite high up for me, but I wasn't really impressed with many of the WR in this draft, so I was hoping to get:

- fast player to convert to WR
- OL
- DL

2/3 is ok, even if they are a bit old....

Yes this year was a poor receiver and OL class. I drafted my needs. The two QB are ok. My second round pick turned out not so well. I have to wait, if the picks improve my team or I have to wait for the TM or next draft. Than I will definitly go for the best avaiable player.

I did not have the best of drafts, with that I agree, but I needed to fill some gaps in my defense. The FB pick was great, I am happy that I did not get a QB I just hope a good OL or two hit the market so I can grab one or both of them

F- is what I'm giving my draft. Buffalo might not have liked my first pick but a DL with those types of measurables you cant gamble with by slotting him down. Bambury was cool but he's a LB and I drafted LB the past two drafts.. only reason i had him a little lower...

But my WR and Punter picks can go to hell... I didnt even have that guy registered.. just slotted him somewhere in no man's land and for good reason. He's worse than I thought.. Yellow in sp at 39.7. Thought I had Joan Coleman above him but I must of been slipping on that one. And the Punter I just converted to a 4th string FB.

I need a break from this game... this draft sucked the soul out of me.

Disaster...

I wanted one FB as the latest option, I have one very good one as he is young. I needed OL, good, but very bad one as he is capped with strength , and badly SF or LB, I got none

Most of my top 30 picks were defensive players - CBs and LBs especially.

I got none of those.

It's not THAT bad I suppose, I had an RB and a TE retire, but the WR was only a choice for me as a good longterm TE replacement....

So effectively I've got 2 TEs (neither are especially effective in the role yet), and a KR who I've switched to RB already.

An NO defense
