Seattle Seahawks (+158.1) It’s telling that four of the above teams made this season’s playoffs, and the fifth was a consistent playoff contender with a Super Bowl appearance since this draft, largely in part to the str...
Cumulative grade (11 picks):-35.8 during seasons with St. Louis Best pick:TE Michael Hoomanawanui (round 5, pick 132, +8.4 cumulative grade) The burly TE was St. Louis’ only positively-graded player from this draft class outside of Sam Bradford. Worst pick:QB Sam Bradford (round 1, pick 1, +10.7 cumulative grade) Bradford finished his tenure in St....
Cumulative grade (six picks):+71.7 Best pick: DT Ndamukong Suh (round 1, pick 2, +77 cumulative grade) The three-time first-team All-Pro has clearly been one of the best players in the league since winning Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2010. DE Willie Young (round 7, pick 213, +17.9 cumulative grade) also paid dividends for Detroit’s defensive li...
Cumulative grade (nine picks):+83.6 Best pick:DT Gerald McCoy (round 1, pick 3, +115.2 cumulative grade) As the third-highest graded player in the entire draft (behind Rob Gronkowski and Geno Atkins), the third-overall pick was certainly a sound investment. McCoy was one of PFF’s top-two graded DT’s for three years straight (2012–2014). Worst pick:...
Cumulative grade (six picks):+28.7 Best pick:OT Trent Williams (round 1, pick 4, +70.4 cumulative grade) “Silverback” has lived up to his nickname while showing steady improvement and evolving into one of the top players in the game at a premium position.

Cumulative grade (seven picks):+127.2 Best pick:G Jon Asamoah (round 3, pick 68, +47.4 cumulative grade) Asamoah was a consistent force with KC before leaving for Atlanta in free agency after four seasons. The Chiefs also drafted and received spurts of strong play from S Eric Berry (round 1, pick 5, +44.1 cumulative grade), TE Tony Moeaki (round 3,...
Cumulative grade (10 picks):+158.1 Best pick:S Kam Chancellor (round 5, pick 133, +52 cumulative grade) Although S Earl Thomas (round 1, pick 14, +55.7 cumulative grade) is widely regarded as a once-in-a-generation talent, Chancellor has accumulated a similar grade through his first six seasons and was drafted four rounds later. The Seahawks also h...
Cumulative grade (seven picks):+67.6 Best pick:CB Joe Haden (round 1, pick 7, +47 cumulative grade) Haden delivered positively-graded seasons every year since entering the league, and has earned two Pro Bowl nods along with one second-team All-Pro. Safety T.J. Ward (round 2, pick 38, +42.1 cumulative grade) also delivered over his four seasons in C...
Cumulative grade (nine picks):+75.1 Best pick:DE Lamarr Houston (round 2, pick 44, +47.3 cumulative grade) The Texas product evolved into one of the league’s top 4-3 DE’s by the end of his four seasons in Oakland, specializing in his ability to stop the run (54 stops in 2013). He took a big payday from Chicago before suffering an unfortunate injury...
Cumulative grade (nine picks):-10.9 Best pick:RB C.J. Spiller (round 1, pick 9, +19.9 cumulative grade) Besides LB Arthur Moats (round 6, pick 178, +3.4 cumulative grade), Spiller is the only positively-graded player from this draft for Buffalo, with his +21.0-graded 2012 season proving to be the outlier in an otherwise pedestrian five seasons. Wor...
