Inside the Article:
When the Detroit Lions selected Amon-Ra St. Brown in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft, I was extremely excited because he was one of the players I was hoping would fall to them. Watching St. Brown play at USC really reminded me a lot of Golden Tate, and my thought was that he could have similar production in the NFL. Yet, there were some draft evaluators who did not think so highly of St. Brown and he recently reacted to some of those comments.

Bottom Line: Draft grades are just opinions
Everybody and their brother thinks they are a draft expert, yet even the paid experts seem to be wrong more than they are right and that was certainly the case with St. Brown, who fell to the Lions in the third round. Remember, sometimes it is better to trust your own eyes rather than trust what somebody else says about a prospect.
