Default Philadelphia Inquirer Grades the '06 draft...

...and we're #1. Chart is near the end of an article about the Eagles recent 2nd day picks.

Quote:
Each player in the 2006 NFL draft was given a point total for his production with the team that selected him. The player was not given points for what he did with other teams. He received four points for making the Pro Bowl, three points for each season he started all 16 games, two points for each season he started at least half his team's games, and one point for playing in at least half his team's games

Grading the Overall Class of 2006
Top Five
Houston Texans 7 picks, 27 points

Green Bay Packers 12 picks, 25 points

Baltimore Ravens 12 picks, 25 points

New York Jets 10 picks, 24 points

Indianapolis Colts 7 picks, 21 points

Bottom Five
Miami Dolphins 6 picks, 7 points

Pittsburgh Steelers 9 picks, 10 points

Dallas Cowboys 8 picks, 10 points

Detroit Lions 7 picks, 10 points

Atlanta Falcons 5 picks, 10 points
I'm not quite sure how they came up with 27 by their formula. I either come up with 26 or 29, depending on how Demeco Ryans Pro Bowl is counted (does he get 4 pts for Pro Bowl + 3 pts for 16 Games started, or just the 4?). Maybe they gave Mario a pt for being a Pro Bowl alternate?

Demeco Ryans - 7 pts (4 pts for Pro Bowl in '07. 3 pts for starting all 16 games in '06)
Mario Williams - 6 pts (3 pts each for starting all 16 games in '06 and '07)
Owen Daniels - 5 pts (3 pts for starting all 16 games in '07 & 2 pts for starting more than half the games (12) in '06)
Eric Winston - 4 pts (3 pts for starting all 16 games in '07 & 1 pt for playing in more than half the teams games (12) in 06. Missed an extra pt by one start (had 7 starts in '06))
Wali Lundy - 2 pts (started 8 games in '06)
David Anderson - 2 pts (played in half his team's games in '06 (9) and '07 (8)).
Charles Spencer - 0 pts (started first two games of his career, but that doesn't give him anything)
