This is the year Brad proves us all right imo. Every year he’s drafted so far he’s picked up at least one pro bowler plus at least a couple more quality starters. But to me, that’s pretty much the expectation when you start your tenure with dire needs at pretty much every position (meaning you can always draft bpa) and you have two picks in the top twenty and 4+ day 1-2 picks every year. Brad went into this draft with less high draft capital than he’s used to, and he had more specific positional and roster needs to fill this time around rather than just a general need to upgrade the talent on the roster. To be clear, I love the draft this year and I’m fully convinced Brad is a savant who deserves all the credit he gets and more, but I think these are the types of drafts and situations that prove that, more so than past years
