    Bengals win the first round, Eagles lose it. Browns, Bills, Vikings went bold, but Cincinatti had no business getting the best, at worst second-best corner at 24. Really nice.

    Nobody knows what the hell Chip Kelly and his brass were thinking.

    Why does Carolina have such a low grade, I wonder? [face_thinking] From what I've seen elsewhere, Benjamin is a good WR choice for Newton's offense.

    His is apparently a case where he came on late, in the visible games FSU had - must remember, they played absolute nobodies, outside of Clemson, until the BCS NC. Then he had a good NC, and he's a 9 foot monstrosity, so he climbed the boards.

    Not a good route runner, and suspect hands. But still huge dude. Leonard Pope, perhaps?

    The Redskins were the big losers of this years draft.

    I wish ESPN or the NFL Network would retroactively grade drafts from years past to see how close their grading was on the day of the draft, since someone is always saying, "It will be a few years before this draft can be accurately graded."

    They actually do sometimes. I know the NFL Network has a habit of doing it to fill time between the Combine and the Draft.

    Kiper gave them a B+ which was pretty good and above the Giants and Jets. :(

    Grading a Draft after it just happened and before the players have taken one snap is fairly idiotic.
