I was curious how the last few drafts turned out, so I did some research & gave out grades.
In 2015, they hit on Clark & Lockett, without a 1st (Graham deal).

LawlerZ. BrooksOnly 2 players still remain. Even though Quinton Jefferson was a productive rotation player for us & Joey Hunt remains a Back-up. This list is pretty depressing. The J. Reed pick rescues this from being a complete failure.

Outside of Shaquill Griffin, Chris Carson & David Moore, this draft is underwhelming (Just 2 Starters).

J. MartinMcGoughJury is still out on the Penny pick. You could argue it was a reach. But getting starting caliber players later in the draft like Dissly, Flowers (good value in 5th Rd.) & a solid Punter in Dickson is an improvement. Green & Jones might still become starters at some point.
