On the draft position for QBs
This scale was in the Landry Jones > Geno Smith thread. It doesn't apply at all to QBs.
The Grading Scale Grade Draft Profile Description 10 No. 1 Overall Pick Elite, once-in-a-decade player 9.5-9.9 Top 5 Pick Exceptional, difference-maker early 9.0-9.4 Top 10 Pick Excellent, rookie starter 8.5-8.9 Top 25 Pick Special, rookie starter 8.0-8.4 Top 32 Pick First-rate, rookie starter/contributor 7.5-7.9 Top 50 Pick Very good, rookie starter/contributor 7.0-7.4 Top 64 Pick Very good, rookie starter/contributor 6.5-6.9 Top 75 Pick Good 6.0-6.4 Top 100 Pick Average 5.5-5.9 Top 125 Pick Average with issues 5.0-5.4 Top 175 Pick Average with issues 4.5-4.9 Top 250 Pick Borderline NFL talent 4.0-4.4 Undrafted FA Below average 3.5-3.9 Street Free Agent Marginal 3.0-3.4 Camp Body Marginal 2.5-2.9 AFL/UFL/CFL Inferior 2.4 < Reject Unworthy There are only 3 categories for QBs. 1. This player can start immediately, and he has good franchise potential. Players in this category can be ranked relative to each other. 2. This player can be a) a backup or b) with development, a starter with good franchise potential. Players in this category can be ranked relative to each other. 3. This player isn't not NFL quality. If you are the Chiefs or any other team that is in desperate need of the QB, you take a category 1 QB with your first available pick. The "value" or ranking doesn't matter. So if a team that needs a QB has the overall #1 pick, and a QB with an 8.0 rating is the best in the class, you take him. If he pans out, the pick is a bargain. If he doesn't you are going to pick another one in 3 to 4 years. That's just the way it is. Last edited by cdcox; 11-18-2012 at 11:48 AM.. |
