Hey all,
Pretty much the title. I picked those years because it gets murkier to grade the most recent classes until they hit year 3. thanks for your input!

Peep those raiders draft classes 😎
I feel attacked
Cowboys got Micah Parsons, Trevon Diggs, Ceedee Lamb, Tony Pollard, Tyler Biadasz, Osa Odighizuwa, Donovan Wilson, and Connor McGovern out of this 3 year draft span.
Even with the Trey Lance pick the 49ers have some insane hits in this timeframe
Nick Bosa
Deebo Samuel
Dre Greenlaw
Javon Kinlaw
Brandon Aiyuk
Jauan Jennings
Talanoa Hufanga
Elijah Mitchell
Kinlaw is bad. Jennings and Mitchell played above their draft spot but neither are major stand outs. Mitchell had a shot but the dude is literally never healthy
Honestly I loved our 2020 and 2021 draft classes (like, Burrow and Chase alone will do that). Been a while since the 2019 though and I’d need to look back on who we grabbed.
Feels like the 9ers have had some great drafts in that time
For notable players, the Cowboys in 2019 got Tony Pollard, Connor McGovern, and Donovan Wilson. 2020 we got Ceedee lamb, Trevon Diggs, Tyler Biadasz, and Neville Gallimore. And 2021 we got Micah Parsons, and Osa Odighizuwa. So in 3 drafts we got a good amount of starters/contributors 3 franchise players.
Undrafted free agents also had some hits in 2020. Terrence Steele (starting RT), Rico Dowdle (current backup RB).
not us
Dallas? Off the top of my head they got Pollard 2019, CD and Diggs 2020 and Micah 2021.
We don’t have the best because our drafting dropped off drastically in 2021, but our 2019 and 2020 draft classes performed so well in that first Brady year, there’s no chance we win the Super Bowl without them.
That’s got to rank very highly.
Absolutely. Many packer fans are convinced that drafting had zero impact on our contention window. Y’all are a very convenient and convincing counterpoint to that asinine take.
If you did 2021 onwards, Eagles would be great, but 2019 and 2020 were stinkers haha
At least we got Jalen Hurts and that was the pick I didn’t care for at the time
Let’s see what the Eagles looks like:
1st: Smith, Reagor, Dillard. Not great. Smith is a stud, Reagor and Dillard are busts and both off the team.
2nd: Dickerson, Hurts, Sanders, JJAW. Great. Franchise QB that’s an MVP candidate, a pro bowl lineman that’s still starting, a pro bowl running back that had some good years here, and arguably the worst nfl player in history.
3rd: Milton Williams is a legitimate post of this team so that’s a hit for the 3rd out of two picks.
4th: two guys are still on the team, Zach McPherson and Jack Driscoll. McPherson is hurt and he’s an important depth piece and Driscoll is a depth lineman that’s gotten chances to play.
5th: Kenny Gainwell is still contributing (more than most fans would want) but good for a 5th rounder. The others are out of the league.
6th: Tarron Jackson, Tuipulotu, Shaun Bradley, and Quez Watkins, are all on the team but a limited contributors. One other guy is still in the league in the chiefs.
7th: Patrick Johnson is still on the birds and Toohill is on the Commanders. Not bad when both 7th rounders make it.
So all in all that’s pretty good. Two big misses in the first round which is bad, but Smith is a great pick and they move made up for it with massive value in the 2nd.
Not us
Bengals. We got two great LBS, two no 1 WRs a top 3 kicker and a generational QB. Ignore the o-linemen we drafted.
Definitely not the jets. Zach Wilson number 2 when the next players drafted are all pros.
