We’re just a few months from the 2018 NFL Draft, which means we’ve had plenty of time to assess the draft class of 2010.
In this re-draft, we’ll be using Pro Football Reference’s Career AV to determine the selection order in hindsight. Ties go to the player originally drafted higher.
If you were calling the shots for one of these teams, how differently would you have done things using 20-20 hindsight?

Four Seattle Seahawks draft picks are re-drafted in the first round — two of them were first-round picks in Okung and Thomas, but Tate went in Round 2 and Chancellor was a 5th-round selection.
Brown makes the biggest leap from Round 6 (195 overall) to No. 2 overall. Tebow ranks No. 107 after being the 25th pick in the draft, making him the least valuable first-round pick of the class.
Brown is the only 6th-round pick to generate first-round value, Chancellor the lone 5th-rounder to do so. Atkins and Griffen were the only two 4th-round picks to do it. There were six 3rd-round picks to earn first-round value through the 2017 season.
