What about all the higher draft picks over the past 3 years?
We drafted 8 guys in the first 4 rounds in 2018-2019
Taylor Rapp
Darrell Henderson
David Long
Bobby Evans
Greg Gaines
Joseph Noteboom
Brian Allen
John Franklin-Myers
Outside of Henderson none of them are playing well enough to get excited about at all this year. Heck, JFM looks like the best of them and we cut him. Right now, outside of maybe Henderson, those guys look like a bunch of JAGs or in the case of Allen and Long look worse than that.
Thankfully, it looks like we hit it big on lower picks like Fuller and Edwards, and FAs like Williams. Jury is still out on the guys from this year.
Little harsh, max.
I see Rapp, Henderson, Long, and Evans as future starter quality players. Perhaps as soon as next season. Hendy has already started 2 games. Those 4 players, alone, constitute a 50% hit rate on a 2nd and 3 3rds, which is a fabulous hit rate.
Boom is still seen as the coaches’ apparent LOT replacement for Whit (if Whit ever retires, lol).
Gaines is currently productive in a rotation and improving.
Allen and JFM were busts, I’m afraid.
Overall, I’d put that Snead hit rate up there with just about anybody’s.
