This is kind of interesting.

Paul Hembo calculated the percentage of 1st-round picks that “hit” or “miss,” based upon whether that player signed a second contract with the team that drafted them. The data encompasses the 20 drafts spanning 2000-2019. Here are the positional hit rates:

Almost makes ya wonder about all those 'PACKERS NEED TO DRAFT WR RD1" crowd huh lol

---

It's supposed to be a good OL draft year.

Also CB.

Not completely, but it's almost in order of least sexiest positions to most sexiest

---

So we should draft a C in the first round? Knew it!

---

So Xavier McKinney is a miss?

I'm sure there are a few guys like McKinney from 1999-2020.(Micah Hyde for example)
With Covid screwing up the salary cap for the last 4 years, I'm betting the numbers for misses between 2021-2025 the numbers will be greater just because teams could not afford to sign some of the players that outplayed their rookie contracts.
With The NFL Machine back up and running the numbers will go back to "The norm".
Just a thought .
