We haven't had a player drafted in the 1st round with a #RAS below 5.00 since 2019, where we had three.
Deandre Baker, L.J. Collier, and Dwayne Haskins (RIP).
The COVID years limited testing, but I think teams also played it a lot safer than they would have otherwise.
Will any player under 5.00 be drafed in 2022?
I can't think of one that should. Offhand, I can't even think of a player that MIGHT go in the 1st with a lower score.
2018 only had one player under 5.00, Baker Mayfield who was taken first.
2017 only had the one as well, Charles Harris who was taken by the Dolphins.
In 2016 we had three. Vernon Butler of the Panthers, DeForest Buckner (who tested as an edge), and Laquon Treadwell.
2015 saw four go in the first. Laken Tomlinson by the Lions, Arik Armstead, Jameis Winston, and Danny Shelton (who was a nose tackle).
