Overall draft grade

vote and discuss, or discuss and vote, whichever way you want ;)

I'm going with B (really a B-) because I think we addressed a need at CB with someone I believe was the best CB available in the draft. When I was watching the draft Saturday, the beer in me and the complete surprise signing of Campbell would have lead me to give something more like a F------------, but after more rational thinking and reading some opinions here, I have completely made peace with that signing (except for the price of next year's pick).

Yes, there were other players available in the first round that would have also been nice pick-ups, but I think some smart moves were made in the early rounds and late rounds to give us a good basis for next year. There were a couple players we passed on that dropped the Skins down a grade for me to the B-.

I voted B as well. I like Carlos Rogers at #9 even though I would've preferred Mike Williams. And this whole Jason Campbell thing is really weird. But all in all we addressed most of our needs. I like the fullback from UCLA, and we got some depth for the LB position.

Ask me again in 5 years.

I voted C. I love the Carlos Rogers pick; even though I would have rather had Williams, I think Rogers is going to be a very good player for us. I dont like the Campbell pick; I think we gave up too much for such a question mark. I like grabbing the ILB from Lousiville (his name escapes me at the moment). Overall I thought it was an OK type draft, so a C from me.

I am going with B here. I think they did well with the Rogers pick at #9. Not so sure on the Campbell pick however he might have been the most talented at the time and Gibbs did reference you cannot pass up a QB anytime one is on the table with the talent potential Campbell has.

Good late round picks with LB and two FB. Overall a B- here, but only time will tell on this one.

McCune I think is his name. Per Gibbs, this guy is supposed to be a good player.

Probably the best answer.......

Redskin rat is right. Grading the draft now is a bit futile but fun anyway. I vote a solid C. Rodgers is nice, still would have prefered Williams. I think the only other bright spot may be LB out of Louisville who could start this year.
I have faith we will be right on Jason Campbell in the end, but hard to swallow that move today.

One good thing is you know now that Gibbs will be here for at least another 3 years. Jason Campbell will be his project and likely define his legacy for the second coming.

I'll say this, nothing COMPLETELY upset me this draft.
