    The 2018 NFL Draft will be known for many things: The quarterback-heavy nature at the top of the draft, several high-profile picks that never panned out (for a variety of reasons), and the emergence of superstars that came from high-risk draft selections. The successes, the flops, and the mehs are always a part of every draft, and this one is no different. It's been five years, which is a good time to get a gauge as to how each selection went.
    Join me as we go over every pick in the first round (poorly) and assess their impact at the NFL level. There were some ones that blew up in my face. Just saying.

    I really like this concept of revisiting Drafts every five years

    • @fortynights1513
      @fortynights1513 Před rokem +20

      89 is notable for the four Hall of Famers in the first five selections, and Steve Atwater later in round one also made it in.
      Not as much depth as some years that are considered as good as it is typically (23 total pro bowlers is actually pretty low compared to some), but the best selections make it an excellent class overall.
      A hot take I have related to 1989’s draft:
      Tony Mandarich in 1989 is certainly a terrible pick, but he’s not the worst pick ever.
      True, he was an unsuccessful tackle who was gone in three years (would be ok for Indy years later though), and the next three picks were Barry Sanders, Derrick Thomas and Deion Sanders.
      But if Green Bay wanted to take a tackle, then 1989 wasn’t the year to take one; none made a pro bowl or received any individual recognition from what I can tell.
      While the Hall of Famers afterward were right there, none were linemen.
      Todd Blackledge in 1983 was a far worse pick. Sure, eighth overall vs second, but he didn’t pan out, and Dan Marino and Jim Kelly were both taken by the next Kansas City pick so they missed out on Hall of Famers who could have played the same position.

      I'm absolutely 100% certain that their intent in doing this was to sink *the team* & not specifically LJ8's chances of getting a big paycheck. Absolutely certain. & I'm also 100% certain that the Giants would rather pay Daniel Jones that much $ just to keep their offense stagnant than to pay just a little more to get LJ7 to win them a super-bowl. I'm also 100% certain that the Patriots, Broncos, Jets, Dolphins, Commanders, Seahwaks & every south division team (except Jacksonville) is 100% certain of their super-bowl winning hopes without him.

    I think Baker deserves a "meh". With all their QB picks in the first round he was the first to inspire any real faith in the team. One rough season caused the Browns to turn on him in an outright farce.
    Also Denzel Ward being a success and Saquon not for injury concerns is weird. They have equal pro bowls and Saquon has three 1k yard seasons.

    • @Jmisaprodriver
      @Jmisaprodriver Před rokem +4

      Baker as a bust is unfair in ways because if he never played with that blown shoulder it would be a different story. If he somehow revives his career in Tampa bay that’ll be nice.

      It's also safe to say any of the other QBs in that draft wouldn't have done as well in the circumstances. Allen and Lamar would not have dropped into good systems, darnold and Rosen simply sucked. He was the best pick and did pretty decent all things considered

    As a Ravens fan, this was our best draft since 1996, and its fitting that it was the last draft that Ozzie Newsome was in charge of. Look at who we got. Lamar Jackson, Mark Andrews, Orlando Brown Jr, DeShon Elliott, and Bradley Bozeman. That's close to a generational draft. Not to mention we made Philadelphia drink the stupid for Timmy Jernigan and Mike Wallace in order to get Lamar. Speaking of Lamar, and the Ravens, they are plotting a scheme in order for them to make a huge move for DeAndre Hopkins. We have Andrews, OBJ, and Bateman already, WE'RE GETTING D-HOP EVEN IF WE GIVE UP GUS EDWARDS AND DEVIN DUVERNAY! (The problem is that we have to compete with the Chiefs and Bills to get him) If we get Hopkins, Lamar is easily signing an extension.

    • @MazeDaGr8
      @MazeDaGr8 Před rokem

      Yeah you gotta point there, mate Yeah we've got some good players in the Drafts over the years but this was our best draft Overall in years. If we can get D-Hop and lamar signs this contract (along with staying healthy) then we should be good going forward

    • @michaelhession2105
      @michaelhession2105 Před rokem

      @@MazeDaGr8 Honestly I think we will get D-Hop even if we trade our 1st Round pick. Why? Because Deonte Banks, who pundits think the Ravens could take at 22, they might be able to get him in the 2nd Round. It would be a win-win trade. Arizona sheds the Hopkins contract and gets two 1st Round picks, Lamar gets another outstanding receiver to work with, the Ravens get a 2nd and 5th in the deal as well, and the Cardinals are out of Cap Hell. EVERYONE WINS!
