NFC South Draft Grades


Atlanta Falcons
Best Pick: Lawrence Sidbury Jr. (DE) 125th, Poor man's Orakpo 3 rounds later... Could be a force this year.
Worst Pick: None... The Falcons added quality depth through out their draft.
Grade: B+

Carolina Panthers
Bes
t Pick: Everette Brown (DE) 43rd, Considered by many to be a top 15 talent in this draft.
Worst Pick: Another solid draft for an NFC South team with no obvious weakness.
Grade: B-


New Orleans Saints
Best Pick: Malcolm Jenkins (DB) 14th, The consensus top DB in the draft for the team with one of the worst pass defenses in the league.
Worst Pick: The other three picks the Saints had were spent on two special teams players and a punter... enough said.
Grade: D+
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Best Pick:
Roy Miller (DT) 81st, Miller's size will help keep Tampa's smaller linebackers protected and able to make plays.
Worst Pick
: Josh Freeman (QB) 17th, Unorthodox release will be his demise.
Grade: C-
