Jetsfan80 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 It's been said that you can only evaluate a draft class properly 3 years later. Well, here we are! The 2017 class: 1.6 - S Jamal Adams: Traded to Seattle on Jul 25 along with 2022 4th round pick two 1st rounders, 1 3rd rounder + S Bradley McDougald 2.39 - S Marcus Maye 3.79 - WR ArDarius Stewart: Out of NFL since 2017 4.141 - WR Chad Hansen: Out of NFL since 2017 5.150 - TE Jordan Leggett: Out of NFL since 2018 5.181 - DL Dylan Donahue: Drove wrong way thru Lincoln Tunnel; out of NFL since 2017 6.188 - RB Elijah McGuire: Out of NFL since 2018 6.197 - CB Jeremy Clark: Out of NFL since 2018 6.204 - CB Derrick Jones: Out of NFL since 2018 7 players who haven't played a snap of NFL football since 2018. 1 traded yesterday. That leaves Marcus Maye, who is set to hit free agency after the 2020 season, and will now compete with Bradley McDougald (also a FA after 2020) for snaps and perhaps a contract extension. And all that from a loaded draft year that produced the following talents: Pat Mahomes Deshaun Watson George Kittle Christian McCaffrey Alvin Kamara T.J. Watt Tre'Davious White Ryan Ramczyk Eddie Jackson Dalvin Cook Joe Mixon JuJu Smith-Schuster Kenny Golladay Cooper Kupp Aaron Jones Marlon Humphrey And so many others. Thanks Macc. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post New York Mick Posted July 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2020 That was a good draft class as well. 22 pro bowlers all the way into the firth round with Kittle. There was no reason for such a bad draft. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather be discussing the recent extension for Pat Mahomes or upcoming extension for Deshaun Watson right now than yesterday's trade for the Box Safety. Even if you keep the Jamal pick the same, there's no excuse to miss out on all this talent, which was readily available to Macc in the later rounds: George Kittle Alvin Kamara Eddie Jackson Dalvin Cook Chris Godwin JuJu Smith-Schuster Kenny Golladay Cooper Kupp Joe Mixon Kareem Hunt Aaron Jones Chris Carson Marlon Mack Tarik Cohen CB Shaquill Griffin C Pat Elflein G Dan Feeney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindOverMatter Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 1 hour ago, Trolly McTrollface said: We just traded the best defensive player from that entire draft class yesterday... Did Myles Garrett, TJ Watt, or Tre White all retire? Best defensive player from the 2017 draft at running his mouth. Both Watt and Garrett have 30+ sacks in 3 years and yet somehow the SS who hasn't got a interception off a starting NFL QB in 3 years is more valuable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahahahahahahahaha ***Pauses, collects breath*** Hahahahahahahahahahahaha You really love your Safeties, don't you? Positional importance and impact. Understand it first, then maybe post in topics like these? Maye was about the 9th best SAFETY out of this class, behind Eddie Jackson, Adams, Budda Baker, Marcus Williams, Desmond King, Malik Hooker, Jabrill Peppers and Xavier Woods. Meanwhile, Cam Robinson was the 4th best OT out of this class (behind Ramczyk, Sam Tevi and Garrett Bolles) and has been an effective starter at the 2nd or 3rd most important position on the field, LT. Westbrook, even as a true WR2 in this league, has been far more important and valuable player than Marcus Maye. And the Jaguars got BOTH of those guys. So yeah, their draft class was superior overall. I'll take Fournette, Robinson and Westbrook any day over Adams and Maye. It's a sad day when you're out-drafted by the Jaguars.

Kleckineau Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Also consider that 2017, terrible as it was, likely isnt his worst draft. 2015-16 were worse imo Probably could put a blindfold on and throw darts at a draft board and may actually do better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like he was intentionally trying to sabotage the team while doing just enough to convince the owner not to fire him. Good work if you can get it.
