2023 NFL Draft Tracker: Serritella Grades Every Pick

The picks are in! Time for silly season…who won, who lost? We attempt to make sense of the 2023 NFL Draft hosted by Kansas City.

The draft dust has begun to settle but there is no time to rest—as rookies arrive at their new destinations and organizations get set for OTAs. The NFL calendar has turned the page, which means a fresh start for every team. First, we must assess what all went down this past weekend in the “Heart of America.”

Before we start, let’s be clear. The real determination of draft grades can’t truly be assessed for at least five years. Rather, the purpose of these grades is to display which draft classes we liked more than others based on initial reaction. It will help indicate who we ‘think’ did well but inside all 32 NFL war rooms, everyone feels like a winner. Only time will tell.

There was one team who seemed to outclass everyone and that was the Philadelphia Eagles. Big shout out to GM Howie Roseman for earning our only ‘A’ grade. Other franchises who exceeded expectations include the Arizona Cardinals, Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals and Seattle Seahawks, all of whom received a ‘B+’ grade. With the exception of the Cardinals, all others mentioned should be viewed as serious Super Bowl contenders. On the opposite end, there were four organizations that earned a ‘C’ designation and made us wonder a bit about their overall direction. They include, the Green Bay Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, New Orleans Saints and Washington Commanders.

Below, every selection of the 2023 NFL Draft has been assigned a grade. Each team has been awarded an overall grade. NFL Draft Bible will continue to roll-out more in-depth recaps, so be sure to check back for more updates. Here are the links for Round 1 and Round 2, in case you missed our instant analysis. Other items of note include our 2024 NFL Draft Big Board and way too early 2024 NFL Mock Draft. Thank you to all the disciples! We are proud to embark upon our 22nd draft cycle in the never-ending search for talent!
