Round 1 Anthony Barr, Linebacker A Really great his first couple of seasons. He disappeared somewhat last year Round 1 Teddy Bridgewater, Quarterback A He WAS a good solid QB, accurate but not flashy. Didn't throw things real deep but didn't make a lot of mistakes. His injury will really affect what he does and more than likely he'll be Sam Bradford's backup for awhile. Still, really glad this pick wasn't Johnny Football and you couldn't have know his knee was doing to destroy itself three years ahead of time. Round 3 Scott Crichton, Defensive End D A backup DE on injured reserve. Was basically one of the guys standing on the sidelines. Round 3 Jerick McKinnon, Running Back B Could be AD's successor (but not replacement.) Fast (his nickmname is Jet) but doesn't have AD's strength. In 2015 he and Mat Asiata made a good pair but any success ANY Vikings RB will have depends on whether they fix the O-line or not. Round 5 David Yankey, Guard D Didn't really do much and is one the Panthers now Round 6 Antone Exum, Cornerback C Another injured player. Was in the mix for Harrison Smith's parter at safety along with a few others before getting hurt. Almost an incomplete grade. If he came back and was a good safety, grade goes up, etc. Still it was the sixth round Round 6 Kendall James, Cornerback F He's on a grand tour of the leagues practice squads. Been to four so far. Round 7 Shamar Stephen, Defensive tackle B+ He was becoming Shariff Floyd's permanent replacement until he got hurt. Not bad for garbage time drafting. Round 7 Brandon Watts, Linebacker D On the Dolphins practice squad Round 7 Jabari Price, Cornerback C He's been a decent fourth/fifth corner. Still on the team but injured. This draft looked amazing last year but there's been a lot of injuries. Bridgewater's at the very least is career derailing. It was a near miracle that he didn't lose the leg. Still, to some degree all of these guys are in the NFL somewhere so that's not bad. The team got a free draft pick by bamboozling Cleveland and avoided Johnny Manziel. A-

Jiminy Christmas! Shoes! posted:Just look at this 1st round. Patterson has actually had a decent year. He went from being on the bench to shining on special teams (as a gunner!) and then got worked into the offense as he slowly crawled out of Zimmer's doghouse. BTW, Floyd has had a knee injury and was out last season.
