Even those who won't put a letter grade on it because "grading a draft immediately is pointless" and "you can't really grade a draft until 3 years have passed" still give their evaluations which is essentially the same thing.  It addresses to what extent the grader feels the team has addressed its needs and how they feel the draftees will help the team.  We all know that is not as important as how the individual players actually perform and help the team but at the moment its all anyone has.  The thing is not everyone grades using the same criteria and even if they do their evaluations of players and situations can vary significantly.  That's why when one team gets 1 player who the grader thought should have been drafted way higher gets a higher grade than a team who gets 4 players who went pretty much where he thought they would go or even a bit higher.  The number of players taken is only 1 part of of the evaluation.</blockquote>
