It’s been one week since the 2019 NFL Draft got underway. Seven days since I stayed up until 6 am live streaming the first round with Kenneth Arthur. Nearly 168 hours since the Arizona Cardinals went and took Kyler Murray at #1, tanking the value of 2018 first round pick Josh Rosen. Thankfully, upon much reflection, the Seattle Seahawks did well.
Judging a franchise’s draft in such a short space of time is a foolish exercise. Indeed, most picks deserve at least three years before they can be rated as a success or failure, a gem or a bust.
