All guys off the top of my head who pretty much came in and in some ways "dominated" from just the last two draft classes. I don't know about you, but I automatically assume a first round pick is going to come in and be a high performer. Even 2nd and 3rd round picks I expect to start/and or contribute pretty majorly.
If you don't expect your first round pick to do that, then I don't know what to tell you.

And the list is twice as long of guys who came in and stunk up the joint or were just plain mediocre. Your expectations are precisely why most fans throw a hissy fit when Player X doesn't blow up in his first year. Yes, we all hope and want every guy we draft to "dominate" but to realistically expect that to happen year in and year out is just yearning to be disappointed. IT JUST DOESN'T HAPPEN. There are too many variables.
