26 draft
Rd 1. Banks- 10-12 snaps a game
Rd 2. Golday- special teams
Rd 3. Orange- 10-12 snaps a game
Rd. 3. Thomas-inactive
Rd. 3. Tiernan- inactive
Rd. 5. Demmings- inactive vs Indy
Rd. 5. Bredeson- starting full back
Rd. 6. Claiborne- inactive or little used
Is there a team in the league with a worse draft class? Wasn’t a fan of Kwesi but can’t blame this one on him.

I dont think u can judge this group yet - at least definitively.
Thomas and Claiborne are the most disappointing imo...
Banks/Orange/Golday? I knew they were all projects or were not (in any way) going to beat out the vets in front of them this year for significant playing time (see Dallas Turner.)
Tiernan I knew was going to be a project and Chuck D. to some degree too.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

As well as the defensive line is playing it isn’t really an indictment of orange and banks yet we’ll see what happens if someone gets injured same with gold day

What if I told you there was a time when draft picks weren’t judged for…YEARS LATER!

You need to come out of a draft with at least 2-3 starters. We had 5 picks in the first 3 rounds and not one of them have been close to being a factor. The two big DTs have not looked good and our 2nd rounder cannot get any kind of playing time. Bredeson looked like he was going to be our best rookie and he has not been impressive as of late, I know he was not much a pass catching in college, but have no idea how he could not catch the ball that was thrown to him on Sunday. We just needed to make safe picks, did not need to take a project like Banks. And we needed a RB badly which has been a real weak spot and yet we waiting until the 6th round. Maybe Kwesi was not the only problem. I think Flores was very involved in the draft which I think was a big mistake.
