Thread: Compensatory Picks Announced

Not trying to pass the responsibility on anyone else, I just think that in the third round drafting for need and on potential is an NFL mainstay.

Still....its nice to know we have an extra third and that it can be traded.....something not allowed with comp picks in the past.

Right, but the Broncos have managed to be below average at it...and my guess is their second-round track record with Elway isn't much better, but I spent enough time on the third round tonight.

i'll spot you brock osweiler, montee ball, cody latimer, ty samfrailo, and rahim the nightmare. . .

wolfe is good, but one out of however many is hardly optimal. . .

I meant I'd like to see a full AV comparison, a la, my above chart...but I'm not delving into that again tonight.

What about that rt Orlando w the goofy eyes. Wasn’t he a 3rd pick?


Still we suck at rd 2 and 3. That’s where he reaches for need instead of bpa. Walker last year was his best 2nd rd aside from Wolfe. Only vj fud that whole thing up. It shouldn’t be too hard to find 2 studs in the top 100 of all the college players.

Orlando Franklin was a second-rounder. He has a career AV of 40, second in that draft behind Von Miller (80 AV). Those are the two-best players Elway has drafted per career AV, which is a little unfair, because that's cumulative, not a by-year average, and it was Elway's first draft.

Really we suck at round one as well. Von Miller is a complete outlier because you almost can't miss at the number 2 overall pick especially when Cam Newton had already been drafted. And if you look at the way that that top 10 fell out you could have drafted anybody and said it was a good pic. So essentially he drafted Roby well Shane Ray the jury is still out on and who else? Bolles graded out as the 3rd best of the group last year and that in a horrid tackle class. We miss an awful lot. And that's why I've continued to say that if you know what you are and for some reason your front office can't evaluate the draft very well then do what you do and sign guys because he has done a good job with guys like Stewart.
