It’s next to impossible to give any sort of accurate drafts grades until at least three years after the draft, and even those can be incomplete. From my observations, you need at least five years to be able to begin fully evaluating.
Of course, in a world of instant information and reaction via the internet, such patience is tough to come by.

Are you sure that Millen didn’t say that Cherilus was a wide receiver lining up on the right side, not a wide receiver lining up on the left side? He also added, “He’s a big boy. I don’t see no one taking him down.”
