A record perhaps/

Does anyone remember how long it has been since we have gotten so much production out of a draft class in their rookie year? We had 10 picks in the 2012 draft, and all but one are still with the team.

Out of the remaining nine, three players are starting plus one UDFA starter (Hekker), Legatron, Brockers and Jenkins. Three more have made solid contributions with moderate playing time: Richardson, Givens, and Johnson. Two others (Quick and Pead) are apparently a bit behind, but nonetheless made the team, and Quick may be coming on. In fact our matchup against Miami could be Brian's coming out game. Miami's defense has been solid against the run, but is suspect against the pass.

Rok Watkins is on IR or he might be starting by now too. Out of the ten picks, only Aaron Brown didn't pan out. I cannot remember any Ram draft in recent history that has paid dividends so quickly .. Thoughts?
