Going back a couple of years, the 2005 draft was light on picks but gave us Brandon Jacobs, Corey Webster, and Justin Tuck. That was a monster draft too.
The funny thing with the 2007 draft is it gave a great bump during their rookie season, but there wasn't much sustained success

2 WR Steve Smith
3 DT Jay Alford
4 LS Zak DeOssie
5 TE Kevin Boss
6 OL Adam Koets
7 DB Michael Johnson
7 RB Ahmad Bradshaw
Pick for pick I think the 2005 draft class was impressive (they were missing picks due to the Eli Manning trade. When you look at this draft and the Rams draft classes, I wonder if teams spend too much time focusing on their first pick. It seems like teams that don't have a first-pick draft are better in the other rounds.
2 Corey Webster 43 DB
3 Justin Tuck 74 DE
4 Brandon Jacobs 110 RB
6 Eric Moore 186 DE
