Eight picks came out of this one, and even though Donnel Pumphrey and Shelton Gibson have been given up on by much of the team’s fan base and supporters, if guys like Derek Barnett, Sidney Jones, and Mack Hollins can overcome recent injuries and evolve into the guys Philly thought they would, this could become one of those classes many view as part of that wave that made this team relevant for a long time.
Keep in mind Nathan Gerry and Rasul Douglas were a part of this class as well. Douglas has shown he can play in this league. Gerry has all the potential to show he can do the same thing if he capitalizes on it.
Verdict: An initial grade of B+ has been downgraded to undetermined.
