Caught in the Draft

[chef4131]

Not sure if anyone has seen any of the episodes on NFL network....

I love the listening to the analysis from the "experts", especially now since we know how things will play out.  For instance

 

Ron Jaworski said JP Losmen is a better prospect than Phillip Rivers

also was mentioned (don't remember by who)  Alex Smith translates to a better NFL QB than Aaron Rodgers.

Merrill Hoge gave the Packers a low draft grade because they wasted a pick on Aaron Rodgers, said they did not need a QB since they have Favre there.  

 

I love this post draft analysis 10+ years later, puts it all in perspective.

The best part for me...is the analyst who is completely wrong about prospects...but who continues to speak with such bravado, shout down people that don’t agree and show zero humbleness the following years after being wrong.

Yep never admit fault. We see it in every aspect of our society

Mel Kiper said when Jimmy Clausen was drafted that if he wasn't a franchise QB in 8 years he would quit. This marks his 8th year. We need the billboard committee to assemble.

The first lesson of draft projection is admit your mistakes as well as your successes. I think it would be really refreshing to see the NFL Network guys do a show where they talk through their misses.

That would be a really cool show.  Maybe include some insight as to the difference between what they saw pre draft and what actually translated onto the field in the NFL, or where the prospect went wrong.

Yep. That is what I think you should always try and do... work out why you were wrong.
