Washington Football Team draft grade

When Thursday night arrived, the Washington Football Team was armed with eight draft picks.  When the dust settled after Day, the front office walked away with a bounty of 10 new players.

Offering a team grade or individual grades immediately following any draft is easy, but trying to predict what the grades will be in three years is very difficult.  Players can exceed expectations.  Players can also fall far short of expectations.

By our count, the Washington Football Team made six solid selections and four question marks.  The final pick is actually a solid choice, but it wasn’t for a position of need at that juncture.  So let’s say that it is seven solid picks and three picks that deserve extra scrutiny.

Team Grade: B

What do you think of these grades?  What does your grading scale look like?  The next set of grades will be a self-grading exercise.  We’ll see how yours truly did with the final mock last week.  There will be no grading on the curve and it could be very harsh.

Mini-camp and rookie camp is coming soon and the Riggo’s Rag team will share any updates with you as they become available.  In the weeks to come, we will be providing you with examinations of each unit on offense and defense.

Next. More draft grades for the Washington Football Team. dark

Roster predictions are forthcoming and one final comprehensive look at free agency will drop sometime during the pre-season.  In other words, stay tuned.  There is so much more to cover in the coming weeks and you don’t want to miss it.
