Sweat is a perfect example of a pass rusher that is great despite not racking up sacks. The guy gives it 100% every play and regularly runs down RB's and WR's down field with his super freak athleticism. He also sets the edge well in the run game and racks up TFL's. I'd much rather sign Sweat long term than Chase Young at this point.
@@thek3289 He was 13th in pressures. Not sure what his pass rush win rate was. He was even better as a run defender. He's just a really good, consistent, all around edge. PFF had him as the 8th best Edge in the league last season for what that's worth.
@@brandondillman5841 Unfortunately they just paid both Allen and Payne. I think they paid Payne only due to his sack total, and that money could gone to Sweat.
@@thek3289 I was looking into their cap situation and it's actually pretty good. Mostly because they don't have a franchise QB, great OT or lockdown CB to pay. They could easily afford to sign Sweat and Young if they want. They should probably just pick 1 of them though to spread out the money a little.
belichick is washed, the game has passed him by. he was a great coach but he needs to retire. dude is like 70+ years old now and he hasn’t adapted that well to the modern game. ofc losing a hall of fame QB in 2020 will make your team much worse, but even during the 2010’s he made some head scratching draft picks and other decisions. you ever wonder why his coaching tree is infamously terrible? it’s one of the reasons why i don’t believe he’s the best coach ever. he usually wants yes men, not guys that actually know what they’re doing. there is literally only one guy from his entire coaching tree in new england that is even worth anything: his name is brian flores. belichick’s coaching style is old-fashioned and it’s not really working anymore. it happens to a lot of great coaches and GMs. robert kraft would never fire him because belichick got him six rings (i don’t blame him), but the patriots will never win another one with belichick at the helm. he’s done.
Dillard was so hyped pre-draft but in the end, the Eagles picking Jordan Mailata in the 7th round of the 2018 draft was what secured left tackle for them in the end.
You were extremely generous giving LJ Collier an F I would've given him a Z. Thank God for DK, otherwise the Hawks 2019 draft class would have a been complete disaster. Go Hawks
@@tenofdiamonds6440 Greetings from the UK. It's not what you want to see from a 7th round pick let alone a 1st. LJ is along with Dan Mcquire, Rick Mirer , Aaron Curry , Chris McIntosh and James Carpenter as the worst 1st round picks in franchise history. Which considering some of the names I've left off is saying a lot. Go Hawks
I will always have despise this draft class. On one hand Pitt managed to get a top WR in Diontae Johnson in the 3rd round, however Pitt also traded up (which they never do) to get Bevin Bush who did nothing for the defense, drafted Justin Layne round 3 who is only a backup CB, and then draft a bunch of backup players after that. The Pitt 2019 draft had the hidden Gem of diontae Johnson but still hurts for trading up for Devin Bush.
@@cheezits3632 without a doubt. Colbert was one of the best GMs. However near the end of his career as GM his drafts became more and more questionable. Immediately examples being the 2019 and 2018 drafts. The only good thing however about the 2019 draft is they stole WR Diontae Johnson in the 3rd round. Everything else about the 2019 draft however was either mid or worse.
Hey FA ! Used to watch the channel all the time. In the off season. I stopped after I decided to quit betting on football due to being so far ahead 11-2 with a minimum bet of 989. I made the right decision as the following year I mocked bet ( doing everything but not actually betting ) and was 4-6 .. I want u to know that I appreciate yuh and recommended your channel to other betters . If I was still betting I would be catching every show especially in off season. Keep up the good work and I'll continue referring others to football analysis . Aloha Jt
I'd give sweat an A, sack production has been soild but hes been outstanding at generating pressures and QB hits as well as being one of the best edge run defenders in football
As a vikings fan Bradbury probably a C+ be would of been lower but last year he took a step up can't go any higher because even with the improvement he wasnt anymore then average . sure he got a extension but its not only team friendly but it's pretty such a year to year deal with how easy vikings can move on the moment he struggles
I think Nkeal Harry could've thrived had he switched positions from WR to TE. The guy is very athletic and has size. In his last year he helped run block on the edge the same way a TE would. He wasn't fast enough to outrun Cornerbacks to get separation, but he can cut through LBs pretty well. It was a matter of New England misutilizing him. Look how Darren Waller, who was a WR turned TE, and when healthy Waller is top 3 top 4 TE in the league.
THIS! The Bears are definitely in need of TE depth behind Kmet. This could be an interesting experiment, if Poles and Harry are willing to come to terms and give it a try.
In this last camp before the Patriots traded him they tried that and he couldn't make the transition. That's why they gave up and just traded him to Chicago at that point.
WAY too harsh on Andre Dillard imo, sure he had injury problems and struggled in his rookie year, but he would have absolutely started on most other teams after that. Unfortunately for him he was permabenched behind a top 10 LT in Jordan Mailata, and when he got to play over the past 2 years, he looked ok, he LITERALLY has the same exact pff grade as Tytus Howard. There is a reason why Dillard got a top 18 LT contract from the Titans. I think after all is said and done he will have had an not amazing, not terrible carreer in the NFL, C- at worst.
Jacobs is my favorite rb in the league because I'm a bit biased however, I think he can ideally be a 12-1300 yard rb in his career however I don't think he will be unless we rebuild the oline. Our oline is really really good in the run game but how much of that was bolstered by Jacobs absurd numbers. At his best he can carry our offense and at his worst he's still gonna give you like 40-50 yards per game. I loved the pick then and still do now. Just been a quiet pro bowl level rb his whole career and I want him to break Raider records by the end of his career.
commenting this at 0:09 seconds. there will be 3 Raiders over the course of these 2 videos, and only 1 of them will get an even passing grade. the mayock/gruden drafts sent this franchise back several years
Thank you for being one of the only people doing draft analysis that matters. I don't understand why more people don't analyze what really happened and how wrong they were about some players
Hollywood brown was a C. He was often injured and heavily targeted by Lamar Jackson. But dropped passes and can't run routes. He went to Arizona to continue his long injury history from college. He is now in KC without the Mega contract he hoped for. Ravens no.1 WR, Cardinals no. 2 WR, Chiefs no. 3 WR. His stats have been going down each year. Did he even make a pro bowl ?
To me Abrams has to be an F. I'm almost certain he was also a player with severe character issues. Couldn't cover and he wasn't liked. The 100 tackle season was probably just a product of the opponent breaking into the last level of defense endlessly. Great video nonetheless.
Darrell Taylor was drafted a year after LJ Collier, he missed his entire rookie season and yet DT has had more sacks in half of his first season than LJ has in entire "career". LJ would have been a waste of a rookie free agent contract let alone the 1st round pick we used on him. Thankfully he gone to the Cards I wish it was the Niners. Go Hawks
9:00 As an Eagles fan, I don't think that Dillard was a good pick but I don't think he's quite an F. He would have played more and had the potential to work out for the team if it wasn't for the rise of Jordan Mailata. Mailata breaking out as a very good LT really dug Dillard's grave for him. Not saying it's a good pick and I'm kinda nitpicking, but I'd probably give it a D
As a niner fan, i will always be thankful that arizona decided to to with kyler since that allowed us to get bosa lol. Also, even 4 years later that nkeal harry pick is a big oof. Gave me shades of AJ Jenkins iykyk
Yeah. He wanted to go to a team that would utilize his skill set better. Unfortunately, now he's in a horrible situation with Kyler out for the year and the Cards basically tanking.
Always forgot Deandre baker was drafted by NYG. They traded up into the first round to get him and he was the first CB off the board, played in every game his rookie season

He isn't just breaking out, he's been solid from day 1 at worst, and was outright elite this year. He's had an average PFF grade of 79.8 over his first 4 years in the league, 57 starts, he made an instant impact as a run defender (primary job as a NT), and this year was exceptional in both run and pass defense. He was the best NT in football during 2022, unquestionably. Also, his best career season is better than Simmons' best career season, and he's been more effective in the same amount of time. Simmons has a 78 PFF grade over 54 games. So if Simmons is an A+, I don't think dex should be anything less. Stats for both are per pro football reference.

Does Sweat get a ton of statistical pressures or have an above average pass rush win rate (PRWR)?

And that’s why your not a Gm
Dexter was always a good run defender but really stepped up in pass rush last season
Man n’keal harry is trash a little over 50 catches in 3 seasons that’s laquon treadwell numbers..😐
Just another reason why Belichimp is a bad gm
Bill hits and misses at the same rate as all gms, he is just a bigger name so people focus more on him…
@@BillyBob-ti2fz smh we missed out on Metcalf, Brown, Deebo, that draft was stacked with WRs...
@@rabbi0230 belichimp hasn’t drafted pro bowl player in a decade and hasn’t drafted a good player on offense since gronk. He’s a terrible gm

Preciate you showing Tytus Howard some love!!
As always thanks for the spicy content! 🙏🏻
Dexter Is a monster!! A+ easy
Love these vids!
Josh jacobs only is so underrated
I forgot Nkeal Harry even existed tbh. Schuster is gonna be a solid #2 guy I think but they really need to try to land a franchise WR.
Zay Flowers or bust imo
Think you hit it out of the park on these grades!
Thank you!

I in fact know 😔
Please do 2022 2nd round 1 year later
Starting the next one off with Burns 🕷️
Hollywood REQUESTED a trade? Lamar's favorite target? Didn't know that. They were dynamic
That was the only WR he had over there.. Hollywood also has problems with catching the ball... Andrew was Lamar top target
Yeah. He wanted to go to a team that would utilize his skill set better. Unfortunately, now he's in a horrible situation with Kyler out for the year and the Cards basically tanking.
I don’t think Hollywood is that good, but I can’t blame him for wanting out. He can’t block with his build. Cover Zero also kills his production.
Hollywood said in his first Cards interview that "the Ravens are gonna win no matter what they do. I want to be a bigger part of winning"
@@brandondillman5841 Isn’t Hollywood also in a contract year?
Hollywood is a decent player, but the fact that he and N’KEAL HARRY went before Deebo, AJ, DK, Dionte Johnson and Terry is insane.
W vid by goat
Need to have an S grade above A+, to differentiate the once-in-a-generation type players from the those who are 'just' excellent
Nkeal Harry is without a doubt one of the worst first round picks of all time
Harry could’ve been good bill just didn’t know how to use him
8:02 that is holding.
No coincidence that Jacobs flourished once Gruden left
hollywood brown a stud
Raiders fan here. Yeah, we'll take an A. In a Sea of Effffffffffffffff's. Peace.
Overall, very fair. I disagree with giving Simmons an A+. Donald is an A+, so I think Simmons should be less.
B- for Bradbury? I don't think you'll find many Vikings fans who'll agree. C- if you're being very generous.
Great Video… I still think your Grading is off on most. Couple F were clearly a D and same with A that were B+… This in my opinion! Thankx
Name a better couple than the Raiders and bad first round picks.
Nkeal still my favorite player in the NFL idc
What a huge boring L
Texans fans aren’t critical of Howard wym? He’s
Believe me when I say, Tillery was an F
Why do the Chargers end up drafting first round defensive tackles who get abused in run defense?
Sleeping on how absolutely awful Jerry Tillery was for the Chargers
Knowing this guy’s vendetta and jealousy against Kyler Murray he’s probably gonna give him some wack inaccurate grade like a D or C or something
Sorry but Tillery is absolutely an F. Dude is playing next to Bosa of course he will get pressures inflated. Classic case of Bud Dupree.
Always forgot Deandre baker was drafted by NYG. They traded up into the first round to get him and he was the first CB off the board, played in every game his rookie season
Harry was awful. Go Pats.

In regards to Dexter Lawrence, is it really an A grade if it takes a first round pick 4 years to break out? Just a thought
He isn't just breaking out, he's been solid from day 1 at worst, and was outright elite this year.
He's had an average PFF grade of 79.8 over his first 4 years in the league, 57 starts, he made an instant impact as a run defender (primary job as a NT), and this year was exceptional in both run and pass defense. He was the best NT in football during 2022, unquestionably.
Also, his best career season is better than Simmons' best career season, and he's been more effective in the same amount of time. Simmons has a 78 PFF grade over 54 games.
So if Simmons is an A+, I don't think dex should be anything less.
Stats for both are per pro football reference.
