One top 100 pick during his tenure. Limited salary pushed to his side. There’s a reason he’s the highest paid DC by a substantial margin.

And if this is what he has to work with... think about our ST coaches and whats left for them, they are lucky to even be able to make chicken shit out of whats left over.

Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

That's why we needed a heavy D draft early and often.

Eagles and Bills equally impressive on this scale...

It's almost shocking, especially the Eagles.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

What are they adding up for this ranking? Cap hit? Average annual value? I think both are cyclical and mostly meaningless in terms of matching talent to cost. For example, Justin Jefferson's cap hit in the first year of his extension was $8M. In 2027, it's $49M. Also, I think if you added back Harry, Hargrave, Allen and Greenard, the Vikings would be nearer the top.

this is a bit misleading as BFlo has only been here for 3 drafts. In that time he has had;

2026 Banks 18, Golday 51, Orange 82. and Thomas 98. 2025 they only had a single pick in top 100. 2024 Dallas Turner 17 and they didn't have another pick until 108.

In BFlo's tenure he has had 62.5 % of top 100 picks...
