When was the last time SIX* second round selected rookies were kept the following year? Probably never, I didn’t look into it, but it does seem mind bottling that 6 rookies selected in the second round of the rookie draft in 2016 were kept in 2017. Shows having second rd picks isn’t just for targeting transition players. I’d take any of these guys for $2.
QTang Paul Perkins #14
OQ CJ Prosise #15
ATCQ Carson Wentz #16
QTang Hunter Henry #17
OQ Jordan Howard #19
ATCQ Dak Prescott #20
Jordan Howard went #19 last year! End of story on importance of second rounders. We should add a third round. TenQ has three second rounders to trade before the draft.
*Should have been 7 but homer McD dropped 23rd overall selection Rob Kelley for some reason.
