1st round draft grades in the PC JS era

How can you give Collier anything but an F. It's like giving the Titanic Submersible that imploded a D for stability.

It is tough to evaluate Bruce Irvin based on numbers only. He had an aura that helped him bond with other members of this historic defense. He came up with timely plays when called upon and even though he signed his first big contract with another team, he found his way back to Seattle not once, but twice, later on in his career.

Don't really agree here either. He made some plays, sure, but how low does the bar have to be if a B is because he came back a few times, because no one else saw value...after he signed the first big one.

In fact, when watching Penny at full strength, you would say to yourself, wow that guy is a first-round talent. As a running back, he had a mixture of everything. He was elusive enough to make someone miss. He was agile enough to find the holes in between tackles. He was powerful enough to lower his shoulder and do what it took to gain that additional yard. Most importantly, he had the home run-hitting speed that resulted in a lot of touchdowns. Unfortunately, his injuries continually held him back.

And while I understand they haven't done this with ANY of their grades, but any grade of Penny without mentioning that Chubb was available is stupid.

Okung, Penny, McDowell, Prosise... all injury-prone players. Then the big trade for Adams... another band-aid. That's how it goes sometimes.

The last couple of drafts have been solid, let's hope that continues.

Okung missed 24 of 96 or 25%. That is Cal Ripken Jr. relative to those other 3 giant Eggs Shells.

Was any of them considered injury prone before they were drafted?

I don’t remember the Eagle O Lineman who suplexed Okung, but that was bullshit. Seemed like he missed several games from it, and hard to blame him when it was that kind of cheap BS. I’ve pretty much hated the Eagles ever since. Much like when the Vikings EJ Henderson barrel rolled like 8 yards to take out Hasselbeck’s knee, and acted like it was just a football play!

Duplicate post.

Turns out it was Trent Cole, and it was horseshit.

But at least he felt bad.

Penny was not. McDowell was a head case. No idea about Procise.
