Again, Veach hit on a guard, a center and an ILB last year. Veach would trade all three of them for Surtain in an instant.

Future All Pros everywhere! Big expectations for a team that had zero Pro Bowlers period.
You could absolutely argue that Veach did a better job in the 21 draft given what he had to work with. It doesn’t take a genius to find a solid prospect with the 9th pick. And the 35th pick was also much higher than Veach’s first pick. Compare what they did the rest of the way and Veach wins easily.
It would be like comparing the 22 drafts. In which case, KC’s shits all over Paton’s.
You should probably pump the brakes on the Surtain and Williams hype. Each had a decent but unspectacular first season. They both have plenty to prove.
Paton has much to prove too before he deserves to be mentioned in the same sentence as Veach. Oh boy, he didn’t blow pick #9! Top GM!!
