Re: 1995 Draft Class Summary

To be completely honest, I forgot to do one of these mostly because I forgot most that I even had draft picks. I guess it’s time for my yearly summary. Let’s get started… (peeks at Miami Dolphin’s 1995 draft class results)…

BREAKING NEWS

It appears that Miami Dolphins’ owner MVRowner was not present during the nights of the draft. Rumors have circulated that he has been spotted at a massage parlor with a man who appears to look like Deshaun Watson except in a Cleveland Browns’ jersey. While this siting hasn’t been confirmed, we did get to hear this interview from MVRowner who said “THIS IS WHY I STOPPED DRAFTING BACK IN 1993!”
This story is still ongoing so stay tuned…

Overall draft summary:
In conclusion, this is why I prefer trading all of my draft capitol instead of drafting. This draft class was not a positive one for Miami. Hopefully the trading business turns out better.

Thanks for reading!
MVRowner

Training camp was very sad for me. I experimented with trading all my draft picks, and ended up not being very competitive. It appears I just need to keep my draft picks and take my lumps sometimes. There is a limit to how good I can get just by outspending people.

Drafting has become one of the biggest frustrations for me. I'm with you MVR, I am thinking I need to just start trading picks for known players.

Had a first round CB go -32. Granted, he was 100 vol, but what can you do when speed is so vital for DBs?

My experience is that there is WAY too many busts in draft picks. Everyone doesn't have to go +10 or -10. I'd settle for changes of 2 or 3 either way. But it seems more and more my plusses are 2 or 3 and the minuses are 8 to 15 or more.

This years draft was -32, -9, -8, -7, -6, -3, +5, +7. To my previous point, no one was between -2 and +2. There should be more those and way less of the extremes.

Wow, that is one of the worst, if not the worst, that Ive seen, other than your gains in the back end. -32 is ridiculous for a first round pick. JDB should have a limit on that.

The Bengals are very satisfied with their draft class this season. I would like to personally thank the Football Gods' for allowing rookie WR Ja'Marr Chase looking to be like his real life counterpart. The second round pick was another positive rookie WR in Alexander Day. Now finally 6th year QB Matthew Powell has a few more options to open up the field, but the Bengals still needed to find another quality producing RB.
