Draft post

http://www.revengeofthebirds.com/2011/5/6/2157653/time-to-grade-the-az-cardinals-07-draft




So its been a while since i made a post and i feel bad about it in fact my last post is on grading draft class from 2007. i really enjoy doing this so we will look at who is left from the Whiz draft classes

Star-divide

To start this was my post on the 07 class. and now if i where to re look at that now i would lower my grades simply for the fact that Brown is the last card standing. For how much longer i don't know. Butt say he takes the cut in pay and stays he would keep his grade.

08 was a great draft but now some of that talent is gone and doesn't look as good. We still have Campbell, Doucet, and Keith left but thats it so out of 12 drafted players we have 4 left on the roster that's 33%. not a great percent

09 had the makes of a good draft but people didn't pan out. we did get Beanie Wells, R.Johnson , Greg Toler, and Howling.

now that's 19 draft picks but only 8 out of 19 that are still on the roster 42.1% of the first 3 years of picks still on the roster.

2010 was by far Whiz's best draft with the first 4 picks being starters or receiving quality playing time also you have john skelton and Jim drey that makes 6 of 7 drafted still here.

So thats 14/26 draft picks or 53.8%

2011 is this years draft and i wont grade it but will say we got some quality players. With all but Quan Sturdivant who is on the practice squad are getting playing time and 3 starters you cant be mad.
