Sounds like Jenkins and Stokes are mending, but return to play TBD?

Yeah 2020 is rough because the process was questionable from day 1. You had a contender and he takes a QB round 1 that immediately sets off a couple years of drama, a RB round 2 even though they had two good RBs on the roster, and the a Hback in round 3 when you should probably fill that position with a non premium pick.PintSizedBox10 wrote:I think that's a fair assessment. If Love doesn't become great the 2020 draft is WOAT levels bad. 2021 isnt looking much better. Fortunately the 2022 class is shaping up fairly well. I do think Doubs will end up in the plus player category by the end of this year.

Every GM is going to miss on players or have dudes get hurt but this really felt like a 'too cute' draft from day one and he really needs Love to hit.
It's especially painful considering how close they got the following season while getting basically nothing from this class.

One thing I think you can fairly mention is the 2020 draft has largely sucked once you get out of the middle of round two.
There's been two pro-bowlers from that draft taken in round three or later.
There were eight in 2019.
Six in 2018.
15 in 2017.
13 in 2016.
12 in 2015.
As of now it's hard to argue anyone has had a great draft outside of the first two rounds

I'd never rip a GM for not getting an all pro later in the draft, it's a crap shoot at that point. Id call the later part of that draft wash, Runyan is average starter so that's a win but they got basically nothing at all from the rest which is a little rough. You'd at least like to see some special teams snaps or something positive.
For me the criticism from the time still holds true, it was a weird approach to first two days considering they were a contender. Kind of weird where if you miss you look like a fool.

If Love isn't the QB of the future, it will (and should) absolutely cost Gute his job.
