Definitely not the raiders
And vikings!
Raiders are poverty
@@BuschLatte Vikings can't be half bad with jjj
@@BuschLattein the last 4 years we’ve drafted Jefferson, Darrisaw, and Addison
And niners haha
As a panthers fan cj would’ve struggled here too carolina was a total shitshow last year
Facts...worse o-line and worse weapons to throw to and utilize as well
Cope
Yeah but you definitely want stroud don’t you
@@ravens4207he’s right, not coping at all
@@grimplayz7565 absolute cope man even if there some truth to that the implication is that Bryce would’ve looked like stroud in Houston which is laughable
Being a Ravens fan, you do really get to see how much other teams overthink things when it comes to the draft
Ozzie to edc is privilege
Y’all are just incredibly lucky you got your franchise QB at 32, most nfl teams don’t have their guy to build around yet
@@Kyle-bi7df Ozzie has been over 25 years of draft mgmt, handing off to edc. They trade down alot, rarely up except for lamar, they take the best player available, and they feast on comp picks. 2018 draft was just standard procedure. Which u just started paying attention to. Its not luck when its 25+ years of operating the same system, same scouts, same guy in charge.
@scottrock9460 Ozzie is the best GM of all time. Started with Ray Lewis & Johnathan Ogden and ended with Lamar Jackson .. oh yeah, Ed Reed in the middle.
@@Kyle-bi7df there wasnt any luck around getting lamar when we did, they wanted him the entire time and took him precisely when they knew they needed to. they took hayden hurst before him in that same draft, and traded back for even that pick, originally the ravens 1st rounder in 2018 was in the teens. ozzie's greatest strength as a drafter was playing the field and knowing exactly when he needed to pick the guys he wanted
Love didn't get the starting job until year 4, same as Rodgers. He started one game in 2021 at KC when Rodgers was out with COVID.
100% correct. He probably thought Love sat for only 2 years because he never saw the field or threw a pass his rookie year. So if you were to luck up his stats online it would probably exclude his rookie season since he never took the field.
Seattle (my team) definitely does not do great in the first round, but John Schneider is still employed because he does generally find great value players later on. At least last year's draft features a pair of great 1st rounders for once.
As a Seahawks fan I 100% agree with this. I feel like we as a franchise draft very well in later rounds. Russel Wilson 3rd round, Lockett 3rd, DK 2nd, Dickson 5th
Some rankings put Seattle as one of the best at drafting if you include later rounds. I also feel drafting in later rounds takes more talent and really shows good scouting
Seahawks fan and I’d largely agree with this
We’ve been a lot better in the first round recently though… thank god. Cross, Witherspoon, JSN, and Murphy are all going to be at least solid imo. Feels like we finally turned a corner
What Brad Holmes has done in the only 3 drafts he has had is insane, especially in the later rounds. st brown in the 4th, derrick Barnes in the 4th, malcolm rodriguez in the 6th, James houston in the 6th, melifonwu in the 3rd, McNeill in the 3rd, kerby joseph in the 3rd. absolutely insane, not to mention laporta and branch in the 2nd
The only downside of great drafting; you eventually have to pay them or let them go. But as long as you keep having solid drafts, you can afford to let a couple guys leave.
was gonna say this
@@Brocuzgodlocdunfamdogsonor not all need to be greedy if they are then it’s the cowboys and other teams who have a qb and let other guys go or just have overpaid dak doing nothing
@@Brocuzgodlocdunfamdogson Would it be better to draft bad players and keep them because they’re cheaper? There’s no downside to drafting well. The upside is winning.
@@counselingpsychology the downside is watching a guy you drafted walk away. The Lions are going to have to make a decision on guys like Ifeatu Melifonwu and Derrick Barnes soon. Odds are, some other team will offer them a stupid contract and they’re gone. You’re basically a development program for other franchises.
Wasn’t surprised with the Cowboys since that’s the only thing we could do right is draft since we don’t do shit in free agency
That’s because Will McClay is our main draft guy while Jerry and Stephen make the free agency decisions. I wish they would make McClay GM
They also draft guys like Mazi last year…
Dallas is always too broke to sign good free agents. Too much money for pathetically overpaid "star" players with very little to show for it. We all hear the hype every year about America's Team only to see some serious choke. Ask Jerry to stfu until his team does something noteworthy.
You just overpay everyone like dak and zeke and many more
@@BearKuma707To be fair,the Cowboys screwed Mazi over by making him lose weight for no reason and reduce his playing potential.
So, as a Packers fan, I’m going to push back on the “Packers are the best at drafting in the 1st round narrative.” Don’t get me wrong. We draft pretty well, and most importantly, we avoid busts and wastes of major draft capital (i.e. Mitchell Trubisky, Trey Lance, Bryce Young). But we are not getting consistent Pro Bowlers in the 1st round. That is something the Dallas Cowboys have mastered. Their list of recent 1st-round draft picks reads like a Pro Bowl roster. I think where the Packers really excel is at drafting in the 2nd round and later. So many impact players in the later rounds: Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, David Bakhtiari, Micah Hyde, Davante Adams, Aaron Jones, Elgton Jenkins, Romeo Doubs, Zach Tom, Rasheed Walker, Jayden Reed, Tucker Kraft, Dontayvion Wicks, and Carrington Valentine.
Very True! If you look at the picks before Gutekunst stepped in, the first round was oftentimes pretty bad except for 2009. Davante Adams, Jordy Nelson, Donald Driver, and Greg Jennings were all second round or later picks. Sterling Sharpe was the last great first round wide receiver for the Packers.
As a Packers fan, I agree! And I also think the Packers are the best at drafting offensive linemen
As a Bears fan, I agree with you. Your teams track record at round 2 is pretty nuts.
Yep. This is why I wouldn’t be mad if Gute trades down from 25 if DeJean and Kool-Aid are both gone. Give me more 2nd round picks. Go Pack Go.
kool-aid will be there, I prefer DeJean or the Duke OL, otherwise trade down
Wake up babe new KTO video
Fr bro I love your vids
I read "I love your kids" :0
Big thing for the Chargers the past 10 years was that Telesco drafted really well in the first round but was absolutely bootycheecks at drafting in the mid and later rounds. This resulted in top heavy teams, with plenty of stars but no quality depth. Few good role players. Nobody that could step up in a pinch for an injured star. This is why the Chargers have been the off-season champs but nothing of value
Hope things will be different going forward ⚡⚡
Still better than the black and silver 🥲
Also LA fans just kind of suck in general. This isn’t a shot at you specifically, but the Rams and Chargers have 0 homefield advantage and that’s a problem
GMs and owners think they’re smarter than they actually are and draft guys like Zach Wilson at 2 because “potential”. Real life isn’t madden
If there is a team that dominated post first round draft picks, it’s gotta be KC. Kelce, Sneed, Pacheco, Hill, plus Jones, Humphrey, and Bolton were all drafted in the 2nd or lower
The 49ers have done well in the mid to late rounds as well. Most of their drafted core are mid to late round picks.
Yeah, 1st round studs is important, but you also have to fill out the roster. Chiefs, Ravens, Rams and Packers have done very well after the 2nd round getting quality players to fill out the roster as evident by they most production from non first round picks.
Trey smith and Williams and Watson
@@jamesknapp64 I think thats why Seattle has been good throughout the Schneider/Carroll era as well. I was talking to my friend from ATL on the draft, and my hype cycle since high school for the Hawks draft has been primarily in rounds 3-5 as they have unearthed impactful players and valuable depth for a decade plus. Nailing those picks have kept them in playoff reach even in their leaner years. Very excited to see the guys they picked up in camp this year.
as a packers fan i agree we play the waiting game and it has paid off major our QB luck i will admit is crazy but out 1st round picks have also been really good and after the draft im confident in this packers team i wouldnt say super bowl contenders but definitely going to the playoffs and our defense this season is about to be insane and we got one of the best running backs all we honestly need is a good wide receiver
Love the videos good sir
Love your video, KTO, and keep up the great work you are awesome
Frakkin awesome video my man!!!...great information and presentation.. thanks!!!...\m/
Absolute banger loved the ending aswell
As a Panthers fan, whats crazy is if you expand this data since realignment, you would see that the Panthers in about 20 years have only 1 1st round draft bust not due to injury (Vernon Butler). When Hurney was here you know when he picked 1st round the player at minimum was gonna a a solid multi year starter, often than not make a least 1 pro bowl, and just recently made the HOF (Peppers) Dudes like Gross, Gamble, Davis, D-lo, Beason, J-Stew were all major contributors during the John Fox era, and guys like Newton, Kucehly, Star, Thompson, and McCaffery where a major part of the Rivera era, and we though that guys like Moore, and Burns would be part of this era with Brown, Horn (when healthy) and Icky, but sadly with McCaffery we traded the . Even Gettleman wasn't that bad in the 1st round, Benjamin was good in Carolina.
He’ll yeah another KTO video
your content has been so consistent for years and has only improved in quality. thanks so much man
The 2 minute seat geek ads are unnecessary
Honestly surprised the Ravens aren’t on this, but I guess the wr picks really dragged them down
They’ve picked some really good players, but not all of them early
I think another thing that needs to be taken into account is how successful an organization is at finding talent OUTSIDE of round one. One elite player isn’t going to win you ball games unless it’s Patrick Mahomes, but even then, a team like the Chiefs win so much because they find gems in later rounds, too - like Pacheco in Round 7 or Creed Humphrey in the 2nd and Trey Smith in the 6th.
I'm here for the Super Bowl walk off Outro! These outros always hit hard
Lions have a great track record under holmes.
My Hero My GOAT Mr. KTO with the info
Holy meat rider
Great video
kto u make football a whole lot more fun
Aw yeah early gang. Love your vids bro.
Also as a Bucs fan, we are not historically very good at drafting, but since 2014 👌
Shoutout Jason Licht
I love you, KTO. Hope you have a beautiful day
Anytime KTO drops a video it’s must see
Hey man, keep up the amazing videos! I enjoy your content so much! And I hope you and anyone reading this comment as an amazing week!
Another banger
Your mom
cringe
Another casual KTO banger
I'd argue the Packers really thrive in the later rounds. We somehow find talent there and turn them into players that people look back and say "you could've drafted him in the first round."
Next you should do which teams are best at which positions, like how the Packers are good at drafting QBs and Falcons at WR and ect
Thanks KTO!
What about SS Brian Branch on defense for the lions? Mentioned jack campbell but not branch?
Branch doesn’t fit the video criteria
As a Packers fan this one felt great. Love will forever be in the air💚💛
Unlike most other teams, Packers know not to draft a QB when you desperately need one; draft one before you get to that point
Also, KTO, I know I was a critic in my other post here, but your content is always 🔥🔥🔥! No disrespect intended.
One correction: For the Packers, Darnell Savage is not on the team anymore, so not EVERY single player drafted is still on the team
, but obviously impressive nonetheless, and Darnell did contribute for awhile
HELL YES
What PFF article did you source? I looked up their "Best drafters since 2014" and it included the colts, texans, chiefs and bills, not the panthers or GB.
3:00 The link is, in fact, NOT "down below." Just a link to SeatGeek.
The question isn't which player do you want on your team for 4 years, the question is which player do you want to offer a 4 year contract (at the specific pick valuation). When you see these flashy picks in the first round, it's more about talent acquisition and hope for potential. The more important decision is how confident are you that this player will perform at or above the value of the pick and are you willing to give him a fully guaranteed 4 year contract.
The thing that blows my mind is the lions being in the pass line. Like we just got good, not 1 1st round pick from before 2021 is on the team. Assuming we didnt get in based off having 2 rookie starters (ala jets would be considered from the year prior). I mean technically the jamo pick has been a bust
I can see why the Steelers were left out, missing on their QB, but Shazier in 2014, Dupree in 2015(admittedly slow start but still became solid), TJ watt in 2019(arguably best defender in league imho, only one other player has more sacks in their first 100 games than TJ, and that is legendary Reggie White), Harris in 2021 (three striaght 1k seasons to start career), and Broderick Jones 2023 who will start on the o-line this year, makes for a solid set of picks. Granted they didnt have a 2020 pick due to the trade for Minkah Fitzpatrick, but ya that worked out just like having one.
I wonder if Seahawks are at the bottom because they usually have traded away their first round for more picks.
7:50 Darnell Savage ended up leaving to go to Jacksonville, but we get the point
JUST HEAR THOSE SLEIGHBELLS RINGALIN...wait wrong channel
A lot of those years had Marty Hurney as GM in Carolina. The man gave out questionable contracts to veterans. He made some boneheaded trades in the draft. His drafting in the later rounds was average at best. One thing he excelled at though was drafting in the 1st round. He hit it out of the ball park on every 1st round pick.
It would be interesting to find out which team is the best at drafting in the later rounds. Having a great 1st round pick can change the direction of your team, but the subsequent picks could create a dynasty.
Since the Lions hired Brad Holmes they've been the best drafting team in the NFL.
With the Panther’s 23 OL all Panther fans should be thanking god Young is still able to walk.
Being a chefs fan feels so good right now, we could probably go thru several bad seasons in a row and I'd be like ok you earned it
I know it might just be clickbait, but the thumb nail really through me off with the Steelers down by the Cardinals
7:20 that transition tho
I was thinking, "oh, the rams are going to be very high" then I saw the rest of the title
I mean, it helps if your team pretty much has a pipeline from an SEC school *cough Eagles and Georgia*
watching the Super Bowl ending just gave me flashback😭😭
Success in the first round does not matter as much as success in the later rounds because that’s how you differentiate successful and unsuccessful teams
Great video as usual. Gotta say, awful background music choice on this one though
Bols fan here. Should we bypass Rayshaun Slater?
Drafting isn’t the problem. Development is actually the bigger issue. In addition too often what is considered common sense is actually opposed to what has been well documented. Outside of the QB it has been well documented the elite teams in the NFL have a top notch OL with depth and a elite SR/TE as your primary receiving target. Yet for some reason its pretty much expected that 3 WR’s will be picked in the top 10 despite the fact you have a generational TE receiving prospect and one of the best OL classes. So good luck.
KTO outros > my first born child
I think the best way to determine who is the best at drafting, is to find out which teams hit on their top four or five picks most consistently. Only looking at first round picks isn't telling enough of the story.
Im so excited for this Thursday.
Hitting on late rounders is the real key to success outside of a qb
I don’t know man I feel like most the nfl starting guys are 3rd 4th and fifth rounders even your depth guys. I think we should do a video on that what rounds have the most player in the nfl and as starters
Packers have a pretty nice history of drafting wide receivers after day one
Packers are kings of drafting rounds 2 to 4. Baltimore honestly are the kinds of the first round.
You should make a video studying how bad the raiders are at drafting.
The Packers aren't that great at first-round picks, but they are amazing at getting players in round 2 and later, especially more recently. Just in 2023 alone they got Luke Musgrave and Jayden Reed in the 2nd, Tucker Kraft in the 3rd, Dontayvion Wicks in the 5th, Karl Brooks in the 6th, and Carrington Valentine in the 7th, and all of them were major contributors last year. In 2022 they got Christian Watson in the 2nd, Sean Rhyan in the 3rd, Romeo Doubs and Zach Tom in the 4th, Kingsley Enagbare in the 5th, and Rasheed Walker in the 7th.
The later rounds are where great teams are made, there is no way the Seahawks are bottom five if you look at the whole draft and not just the first round.
Dallas isn't publicly owned but enjoys a similar advantage the Packers have when it comes to drafting with the role Jerry Jones has. There simply isn't a GM on the hot seat that has to prove in a couple of years he is worth the position by winning lots of games and show results. The security these two franchises have because they can always think long term is a big reason they're at the top of this list
Maybe but Jerry Jones has also thrown hundred of millions around trying to win NOW.. for the past like 6 years, they've always been good for it bit they've sold out trying to get to the superbowl recently and flamed out, it could hurt them later, probably not though honestly
fontenot nevers misses in the first round💯💯
I'm starting to believe 99% of the issue is the teams management and factors like location and of course coaching and money. Like some of these players that are like hof caliber on a good team probably would get kicked out on a bad team after 3 years and blamed for all their issues when they're too cheap to hire an actual coach who's coached anything before or draft/pick up linemen or a legit reciever. And there's so many what if players that just went to shitty situations and flamed out, like guys who had all of it but no matter what they did it was futile
Usually drafting in the 20’s also makes the Packer drafts impressive.
I think the flaw with the pff article is that they were specifically looking at the quantity of first round accolades instead of individual draft stats. Carolina for instance probably made the list because they have been a mediocre team at best for so long that they have constantly gotten higher first round picks which are more likely to make accolades, along with this, the same argument of mahomes to the chiefs can be made about if stroud went to carolina, like stroud had two bonefied pro bowl level wide outs in dell and collins, a pretty good tight end in shultz, and singletery who had a breakout year. Personally i dont think Stroud would have been nearly as good if hes having to pass the ball to adam thielan
The bucs better be in the top 10 for the past 10 years. Licht has been killing it
Pro Bowl voting is done by the casual fans. Most of the guys they know are the ones they see drafted in the 1st round or so of the draft. Many times they will just a pick a they've heard over instead of the most deserving player, in many cases they've never even heard of
Basically, NFL teams are just like every company: some are professional and foster a good working culture, while others are mismanaged and disorganized.
I think it’s funny that the Chargers drafted Melvin Gordon 1st overall and then picked up undrafted Austin Ekeler who pretty much had 1:1 Charger Careers, RIP Touchdown Machines
Calling the Lions one of the most successful teams in the league after one good season is crazy
They draft good but yea still the lions now
Hard to argue they aren’t one of the best drafting teams since Holmes came in though
Well they are
The fact that that statement isn't actually that crazy is even crazier
Love sat for 3 years and didn't start full time til year 4
since brad holmes got to detroit the lions draft the best no question
I know Cowboys get a lot of hate, but they're actually fairly well run all things considered. They've been consistently in the "good team convo" for like 15 years now
Best YTer OAT
As a Rams fan… it’s just easier to trade for the already proven guy 🤷🏼♂️🤣
Can you really argue the Ravens should be in the top five of this list when the number one issue with their roster is one that they have spent four first round picks on? In the last 10 years, they have spent four first round picks on wide receiver and tight end, and yet every single year the argument is that the Ravens don't have enough talent at pass catcher.
Bruh you didn’t have to put in that last clip man, still hurts my soul
The thing about O line and D line is guys dont need a solid team around them to be a good player. You can be the best O lineman on the worst team and it would be the same as on a great team... for a QB, RB, WR... you need to be on a decent team or else you're gonna struggle
Seahawks fan, and I wouldn’t expect my team to rank particularly high
Chargers are top 5 at drafting players and their GM just went to the Raiders, who were rated at the bottom 5. It's gonna be an interesting draft this year for the Raiders
I hope Elliot Wolf can turn around the Patriots like his father did with the Packers back in the '90s.
The Ravens are a prime example how you can totally win and dominate drafts in the mid-rounds.
Honestly, how many players from your draft on your team a year later is a better measurement
I knew the Panthers would be on here. We’re pretty good in the first, but terrible everywhere else 😢
I came to say what everyone already knows, it aint the Jags😂😂😢
Lions, ravens, eagles and KC
