-From 1996-2000 we drafted 36 players out of an alloted 35 choices or 102%
* 11 top draft choices (TDC-rounds 1-3) OUT of a possible 15 choices 73%
* 3 TDC players are still with the squad or 27% (3/11)
* 1 player outside TDC choices on the squad 4% (1/25)
* SMART DRAFT QUOTIENT- 26% (80% of TDC players +20% of other players)

* 11 top draft choices OUT of a possible 15 choices 73%
* 7 TDC players are still on squad 63% (7/11)
* 1 player outside TDC choices on the squad 6.6% (1/15)
* SMART DRAFT QUOTIENT- 52% (80% of TDC players +20% of other players)
-JOE GIBBS II we drafted 10 out of an allocated 14 choices or 71%
* 4 TDC out of a possible 6 choices or 66%
* 4 TDC players are still on squad or 100%
* 3 players outside TDC choices are on squad 50% or (3/6)
* SMART DRAFT QUOTIENT- 90% (80% of TDC players +20% of other players).
There are multiple variables here that I am not taking into account such as losses via free agency, such as smoot/champ. Secondly, as it is obvious, players drafted in 1996 would have 10 years of experience, there aren't many in the NFL. Having said that, 3 sources of concern; 1) In the last 5 years, we are trading away too many choices, we are only drafting 66+% of what we are capable on TDC players, 2) Of what we are drafting in the TDC we are only able to put on the squad 63%, 3) Our draft capability in the lower rounds is abysmal.
My 2 cents worth....

Ya'll need to keep your draft picks for starters and stop your owner from putting your team in cap hell every 5 years
I should know after wathing Jerry Jones drive this teams into the ground with poor drafts, trading 2 number 1's for Galloway and mismanage the cap by overpaying for aging vets and poor FA decisions
Until snyder follows the lead of the new Jerry Jones, my heart goes out to you guys--mediocrity will reign
