Every season has some good players available in the 1st round, and often some steals and sleepers in the later rounds as well but I'm always interested to hear how people rate a given season's draft class compared to previous years.

Lets make this extra interesting too, because the first overall is almost always a guaranteed stud and a no brainer if you happen to have that pick so lets eliminate the 1st overall from the discussion and just judge based on the quality of prospects after that. All comments welcome.
