Idk how the 2017 Saints draft wasn’t the one chosen. They didn’t get a ring but pretty much every player from that class from R1-3 has been an above average starter and they were a big reason why NO came very close to the SB towards the end of Brees career

As a Buccaneers fan, it's definitely not surprising to see the '95 class here given that the top two picks were not only HOFers, but Brooks is on the Mount Rushmore of middle linebackers in NFL history. But those were the only two players that really panned out in that class. Honorable mentions should have been mentioned, but even I am struggling to just pick one. 2012 and 2014 had future HOFers Levonte David and Mike Evans respectively, whereas 2020 had the excellent additions of Tristan Wirfs and Antonie Winfield. Cant go wrong with any!

[@CJD22K]

The 2001 class brought the Bengals back to relevancy but 2011 class (Green, Dalton, Boling) and 2012 class (Kirkpatrick, Zeitler, Marvin Jones, Sanu, Iloka) were big reasons for 5 straight playoff apps in 2010s.

They even added Isiah Pacheco in the seventh round, arguably one of the biggest steals in the team's draft history if not the biggest.
