MichaelWeston Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I don't consider myself to be the wisest of the draftniks in here. I bow to AkiliMVP and Jason there. I just think its interesting to look back. I honestly do feel that what I am good at is seeing needs and picking out a few players who I really like to fill those needs. Here is my list of hindsight drafts over the last 4 years, I think that we would probably be better off with my draft then the Bengals drafts FWIW. Some I wiff on entirely but lately I have gotten better. I seem to lock in on big name LBs and they seemingly bust the most from the ones I looked at. Just an interesting look back that I dove into after the Kalil discussion. Some notable gaps on my end are Atkins and Dunlap.
