...about seeing the players actually taken with the picks is that it shows that, in the NFL draft crapshoot, those picks, as one might expect, yielded some good players, some okay players, and some guys who likely will never make an impact.
Sure, one or more of them in a given year could have been an Aaron Donald, but the law of averages produced pretty much the outcome you'd expect.
As for the Rams, as you said, they got their franchise QB, which is the biggest priority for any team that doesn't already have one.
The crapshoot nature of the draft and the historical percentage of picks that are hits is why I said immediately after the trade that a franchise QB is worth
more.
So many people said that we overpaid but I think, provided the QB turns out good, any time a team gets a QB for anything in the range of what we gave up is under paying.
Good QBs are worth like 5-8 times more than other positions.
