At this point we really have don't know how these guys will do. They seem to have great potential but every team thinks that especially those taken in the first 3 rounds.
Last year our guys were rated that high and we hit on a bunch of them and some bit time like Puka, Young and Turner. So measuring the success for failure of the draft at this point in time contains a lot of guessing, hoping and praying.
What I do think is a differentiator is that there is a pathway to playing time for our top 4 picks. Getting a chance to play, a good chance is key to a 1st year successful draft. The type of players they pick, those on the more mature side, those who love football, leaders on their team types also gives us an edge in probably at least giving us a higher floor with our prospects. Finally, last year the Rams really focused on young player development, which had been a strength, and they were excellent about onboarding players and putting them in position to be successful.
Those are some of the reasons I am optimistic but the odds say you are bound to have around 30% or so misses in the first round and the % misses goes up each additional round pretty quickly.
