Grading Teams on Their Picks
May 2, 2011
USA Today’s Jarrett Bell grades every NFL team on their 2011 draft picks:
Philadelphia Eagles: Another typical Andy Reid pick for the trenches, with G Danny Watkins bringing immediate impact. They addressed the DB concerns with Jaiqwaun Jarrett and Curtis Marsh. OLB Casey Matthews already has a connection: his brother Clay had the hit on Kevin Kolb that put Michael Vick on the field.
Fourth-rounder Alex Henery was highest-drafted kicker since the New England Patriots took Stephen Gostkowski in 2006.
