Way too soon to be grading this draft. I'm excited about the future of most these guys we drafted, regardless of their production thus far.

I'm OK with Matthews, Huff, Watkins and Allen.

Yeah, well you didn't watch enough tape of these guys. I followed Huff since pop Warner and he shows poor field vision, no speed, bad hands and a stupid name.

Next year's draft is also a bust, what have those slackers done for us. Hell, none of them have even made the roster.

Seven games in and we're evaluating the draft?

Some people have too much time on their hands or are lacking for attention. :rollseyes:

This team is full of Andy Reid guys a year and a half later.

Hey Huff played PeeWee right after daycare. Kid was badass.

These guys have contributed nothing this year. They could turn into something, but so far it's been nada. I guess Howie didn't know about John Brown when he was drafting these other WRs.

if you would like to look on the bright side or flip side or whatever.

you had 7 rookie draft picks make the team this year (don't know about your UDFA rookies)
Now in some cases if a team is horrible this might not be saying much, but you guys were the 1st place team in the division. Don't think your team can fall in the horrible category. So it could be seen as a quality draft so far. With the way your team plays the games, it wouldn't be far fetched to say a vet FA coming over might take more than a half a season to adjust. So your rookies might not look all the great at the moment, but wouldn't be surprised to see some of these guys turning it around near the end of the season or next season some time. Not like you had a top 5 pick (honestly don't remember where you picked so correct if this is wrong) to expect to be a badass right away. A lot of time skill positions take a good 3 years to turn it on, except maybe running back.
I would take solace in the fact that you guys had 7 draft picks beat out the rest to make the team. That is pretty good. Unless you think some of the early round guys made the team because of draft status only. That might suck.

Kicker was upgraded. Wait, this one wasn't drafted by the Birds.
