Good article Jess. It's crazy that they don't have a single player from the 2015 draft, and the 2107 draft is most likely next!!!, although that draft was pretty bad. Drafting Taco Charlton right before TJ Watt was taken was RIDICULOUS. That alone makes it a bad draft, but then add in Ryan Switzer, X Woods, Marquez White, Joey Ivie, Jordan Carrell, WOW that's BAD. I like Lewis more than some others might, and he is the only semi starter left. Awuzie was decent and got to play in a Super Bowl with BENGALS.

The overpaying of certain players with horribly ill-conceived contracts certainly contributed to this merry-go-round of their players. DP's contract has to be the worse of the bunch. Not only has it hurt their ability to retain players, but it also precludes them from drafting a REAL promising QB. Instead, they'll WASTE a pick on a QB like Ben DiNucci?

AGAIN, I don't see why the FO "heaps a lot of praise " on this McClay guy. I commented earlier on another article about the draft MISSES and there has been a TON of them. And if this 1st round pick, Guard Tyler Smith (late riser from a smaller school who likes to hold?) does not pan out, this last draft may be another "spotty" one. They also drafted a player with a big injury concern, and another with off field concerns (arrest for felony sexual battery) in the 2nd round. They seem to have a bad habit of drafting these types of players. Two of the latest examples of this are Randy Gregory and Jaylon Smith. It doesn't appear to be working, so why continue it?

Bottom line, look at the RESULTS of the team to see how well they have drafted, etc.
