DAYS 1 & 2

“A+”

• Need, team/scheme fit check out and the value is better than expected

“A”
• Value, need, and team/scheme fit all check out

“B”
• Good pick, but one of the following apply

- Player was a slight reach

- Positional value in question (1st Round Only)

- Team passed on a better player at the position for the team

- Team ignored value at a major need

- Team/Scheme fit is in question

- An otherwise “C” graded pick but a big hole at a value position was
addressed in (1st Round Only)

- Player was a slight reach

- Positional value in question (1st Round Only)

- Team passed on a better player at the position for the team

- Team ignored value at a major need

- Team/Scheme fit is in question

“D”

“F”

team ignored value at a major need or positional value is in question

DAY 3

Steal!
• (Round 4 & 5) Team stole a player who had a Day 1 or 2 grade who has a good shot at Starting sooner rather than later
• (Round 6 & 7) Team stole a player graded at least 2 rounds earlier and has a legit shot to be an
impactful player

Great Pick
• Team found above average value and a player with a legit chance to start within the first couple of seasons with the team OR a great role player in a key spot right away (Goal line back, #3 D-Lineman, TE2, dime back, kick returner, etc.)

Good Pick
• Value lines up and player is in a great scheme or opportunity to find success as a starter or key role player relative to most Day 3 picks

Solid Pick

• No notable criticisms of the pick but expectations should be tampered as with any Day 3 Pick

Reach / Will Regret Not Taking… / Not a fan
• (Round 4 & 5 only) Player was a notable reach and/or notably better players would have been better picks, but the player still had a draftable grade
• (Round 6 & 7) Player was evaluated and did not have a draftable grade

Massive Reach (Rounds 4 & 5 Only)
• Team took a player who did not have a draftable grade OR reached multiple rounds while passing on several better options for the position

"-" May be applied if pick required a high trade-up price or is overly redundant with existing players

“+” Allowed for a reach following a trade-down
