Reviewing the 2016 NFL Draft with PFF WAR

With just four teams and likely three compelling games left in the 2019 NFL season, a lot of fans are in the mood for offseason coverage. We at PFF have you covered this week, with looks at free agency and the draft becoming ubiquitous on the site.

In this article, we look back over the 2016 NFL Draft. Each player drafted in 2016 has had the opportunity to play four years in the NFL — the length of a standard rookie contract (first-rounders notwithstanding). Using PFF wins above replacement (WAR), we can tie an expected four-year contribution to each drafted player to see how each selection has done relative to his draft position.
