I'll give it a C, but I'm not one to grade off-seasons based only on draft.
HOF Russ Grimm was not taken until the 3rd round. For some strange reason college OG's drop in value because the assumption is they are as good as an OT. It is a bad assumption. I think some of these great OG that were picked later in this draft will end up being better NFL OL than some of the OT that were taken higher.
