Here are their rankings:

Quenton Nelson: OG Rank 1, Overall Rank 5, Round 1
Darius Leonard: OLB Rank 7, Overall Rank 77, Round 2-3
Braden Smith: OG Rank 5, Overall Rank 74, Round 2-3
Kemoko Turay: DE Rank 5, Overall Rank 58, Round 2
TyQuan Lewis: DE Rank 12, Overall Rank 129, Round 4

So other than Lewis, each player was pick near where NFL Draft Scout had them ranked.

I too liked Landry and Josh Jackson and thought, that they were terrific values where they were chosen. But I can't say I'm unhappy with the picks. I absolutely love the Darius Leonard pick.

I'm still gonna trust in Ballard until I see how these guys play.

Overall 77 but picked 37

Yep. “Underwhelmed” is the word I would describe Day 2.

We’ll see how it turns out, but I think Ballard missed a golden opportunity to turn this franchise around the last two days.

Remember when Kelvin Hayden was a 5th rounder Polian picked in Round 2? That worked out pretty well.

Ballard said in his presser that Leonard would have come off the board, if he didn't take him at 37.

While that may very well be true, GM's aren't going to say anything that makes them look stupid. "Oh yeah, come to find out, he would have been there in the next round. My bad."

The 2018 Draft is over & here is my favorite tidbit: In several facilities, Notre Dame guard Quenton Nelson was nicknamed “Earl Grey” or some variation because all he did on film was teabag dudes after he drove their faces in the turf. Future bodyguard for #Colts QB Andrew Luck.

Let's hope Ballard is more Polian than Grigson, then.

If he isn't, we may have wasted Luck's career. So let's all hope he works out.
