Which teams do you think did well in this years draft?

I don't think the Browns draft is as great as everybody says. Everyone has it as great because they got 2 big name players later than they were expected to go, Greedy Williams and Mac Wilson. Both have pretty flawed games.

Greedy and Mack could both be liabilities against a steeler team that looks to be planning to do more power running with Conner and Snell.

I agree about Mack Wilson. As big of a homer as I can be, I think he's the weakest MLB coming out of Bama in the Saban era. I was really hoping we wouldn't reach for him at #20.

I like the Eagles draft. They only had 5 picks but i think they nailed all 5

1. Dillard OT - probably the best OT in the draft
2. Miles Sanders - the best RB in the draft and a perfect fit in the Eagles scheme. He will be a factor in pass game too
3. JJ Arcega Whiteside WR - he catches everything. Eagles like the big, physical guys and they got a tough, smart Stanford guy
4. Shareef Miller DE - has upside due to his long frame
5. Clayton Thorson QB - they need a backup with Foles gone. Thorson ran a lot of read option stuff at Northwestern. He's a good athlete with a good arm. Didn;t have much to work with at NW

miles sanders, the best RB in the draft?

absolutely. He can return kicks, run with power and speed, has great vision, can make people miss, and has good size. The only thing I would give Josh Jacobs over Sanders is pass protection. Sanders is the much smoother athlete. He was the top RB recruit in the nation coming out of high school. He just got stuck behind Barkley.

Scheme fit is a big part of success too and Sanders landed in a perfect offense for him. Jacobs is in a good spot too because Gruden wants a power run game. I'd rather have the better athlete that could deliver big plays.
