Not sure I agree with that analysis. To me this looks like a good year to get a top 3 pick, and an okay year to get a pick in the 4-8 range.

The top 3 seem to be on another tier above the rest.

I think people toss the "weak draft" term around a bit too easily. Is it weaker than last year? Yep. Is it still looking a lot stronger than most of the weak drafts in the 90's and early 2000's? Yep.
