The 2018 NFL Draft will be known for many things: The quarterback-heavy nature at the top of the draft, several high-profile picks that never panned out (for a variety of reasons), and the emergence of superstars that came from high-risk draft selections. The successes, the flops, and the mehs are always a part of every draft, and this one is no different. It’s been five years, which is a good time to get a gauge as to how each selection went.

Join me as we go over every pick in the first round (poorly) and assess their impact at the NFL level. There were some ones that blew up in my face. Just saying.

  1. Goes to show that each draft pick is like a lottery ticket. Draft picks used in the first round can strike out if the player's development, their behaviour on and off the field, and team chemistry (or lack thereof) aren't handled properly. While players picked towards the end of the draft can potentially have Hall of Fame careers. Look at Patric Hornquist in the 2005 NHL draft. Taken with the last overall pick, and contributed on one or both of Pittsburgh's Cup wins in the mid-2010s. On the other side is Kyle Beach, who was taken with the 11th overall pick in 2008, and unfortunately couldn't make an NHL career for himself after being viewed as a locker room cancer despite the team that drafted him not doing background checks when hiring members of their coaching staff.

  2. McGlinchey was a meh pick. He was a good run blocker till he got hurt but now he’s just mediocre right tackle. His pass blocking is unreliable. One of the main reason why the Niners didn’t wanna resign him
