We sometimes get too wrapped up in what round the players were selected. Nealy half the NFL rosters are made up of free gents and undrafted players. I found this data on Pro Football Reference.
16.7% never play for the team that drafted them
37% were considered useless
15.3% were considered poor
10.5% were average
12.3% were considered good
6.9% were great
1% were legendary

About 16% of 3rd rounders became starters for 3 years or more. Fro 5th rounders it was about 5%.

Using those figures 20% of players drafted are above average and #s plummet by round. But yet there are some posters on here who think we should be drafting starters in every round.
