Which NFL Teams Have Drafted the Best in Recent Years?
A Seven-Year Look at Draft Success
By Eric Eager
In the NFL, the draft is the lifeblood of every team. It's how they acquire new talent and build their rosters for the future. But not all drafts are created equal. Some teams have a knack for finding diamonds in the rough, while others seem to whiff on their picks year after year.
So, which teams have had the best drafts in recent years? To answer that question, we took a look at the past seven NFL drafts (2016-2022) and ranked each team based on how many games their draft picks have played in the NFL.
The results are somewhat surprising. The teams that have had the most success in the draft are not necessarily the ones with the most money or the most prestigious reputations. Instead, it's the teams that have been able to find and develop talent, regardless of where they were drafted.
Here are the top 10 teams in our rankings:
- Pittsburgh Steelers
- Baltimore Ravens
- Green Bay Packers
- Dallas Cowboys
- Los Angeles Rams
- New England Patriots
- Kansas City Chiefs
- Indianapolis Colts
- Philadelphia Eagles
- Tennessee Titans
These teams have all been able to find and develop young players who have made a significant impact on their teams. They have done this by drafting well in all rounds of the draft, and by being patient with their young players.
Of course, the draft is a crapshoot. There is no guarantee that any player will be successful in the NFL. But by following the example of these teams, you can increase your chances of finding and developing the next generation of NFL stars.
