Dan Patrick: “If you’re gonna hand out draft day grades, we love to do this...what grade would you give the Falcons? Well, I’d give them an incomplete right now...now, I can grade the strategy of the Falcons. I can grade the strategy of the Lions last year, remember they took a running back, they took a middle linebacker, they took a tight end from Iowa, and they all worked out...it’s where are you gonna be in two to three years? Would I have drafted Drake Maye if I was the Patriots? No, I wouldn’t have...”
On today’s edition of The Dan Patrick Show, Dan Patrick explained why giving out draft grades in the days after the draft doesn’t make a lot of sense, as you need time to see what these players become. Teams need to ensure they have support in place for these top picks, otherwise you may have just taken the next Justin Fields!
