Incomplete

Cop out.  It's incomplete EVERY year.  It's a grade as of what you know now.

Testy, aren't we?

I'll at least wait until the actual draft is over.  I'll admit, however, that I do not like what I am seeing very much.

Yeah, that 201st pick will really turn it all around....

I think they got some good talent at the end of the draft, but the Kolb pick still makes me sick.  Just trade back again, he would have been there early 3rd rd.  I give this draft a C-. 

farg it, D+ for not trading any players for picks, Moats, Dhani, GLew, Holcomb.  farg you ANDY

Does it bother anyone else that every other team got 1st rounders in 2008 for the same trade.  I think they farged that up too

well im trying to read between the lines. picking a QB as your first pick makes no sense. not this yr, but i wouldnt be shocked if mcnabb is traded after this season.

btw i wouldnt really go by what these so called draft experts grade our draft. last yr we had a A grade from most ppl.

aside from the 1st pick, the guys they selected could pan out and help right away or in a yr or 2. you cant really grade right now unless you go purely on what is projected.

with that said i give it a F because IMO we needed to address the safety, LB, and Dline positions and not with later picks but with the first few picks.

They did address LB (1st 3rd) and Dline (second 2nd - which is really just their 2nd) within their first few picks... they just wasted their very first pick which should have been a CB or S. The 1st pick the did just leaves a cloud over everything else. Looking at it as a whole, I still hate the Kolb pick but I think the draft was solid if not "exciting". The filled some needs, got some depth. If half the draft class pans out they did well today.
