The NFL draft reminds me of that family guy episode where Peter is offered the option of a boat and the mystery box. 
 

“A boats a boat but the mystery box could be anything-it could even be a boat”

 

No matter who your team drafts you can always find someone who will tell you what a great pick it is and pop up a YouTube video of his highlights that will get you excited. 
 

The reality is that 8/10 of these guys become afterthoughts within a year or two. The hit rate after the first two rounds is incredibly low and in rounds 4-7 it’s microscopic. 
 

Nonetheless I think every fan walks away from the draft thinking their team just acquired 5-6 new starting players. 
 

Everybody is a winner after the draft as a fan. Even if you didn’t initially like the picks your team made you can always talk yourself into it after the fact.

You're a Jets fan. What else have you got?

Blind Hope. Same thing a Bills fan had from 1999-2017. 

Joe Namath was a good draft pick.

Beane is such a magician I expect him to find a Day 3 gem each year...

 

Probably this year will be the CB they picked in the 7th with the pity pick they got back from the Vikings in the Diggs deal..

In times like these I'm all for any small amount of excitement I can get.   The draft is like Christmas Day though.   All the shiny new toys we waited all year to unwrap.   Good times.
