I don’t pay any attention to draft grades, do you?
Grading NFL draft picks is like grading students on their 1st day of class. They haven't taken a single test. They haven't bonded with their teacher or classmates yet. But hey just slap a grade on them and possibly even stigmatize them from the start. So freakin' irresponsible.

As a high school teacher for 40 years, one of the most exciting moments for me every year was being handed my class rosters on the first day of school.
