HTTRDynasty Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 14 minutes ago, Danger said: Eric Fisher was a better OT Prospect I disagree. That 2013 class was terrible as a whole, and there were legitimate debates right up until the draft on which of the Big 3 tackles would go first overall. 16 minutes ago, Danger said: Chase Young was the start of this decade, not last decade. Good point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soko Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 In terms of generalish consensus? From what I remember: QB - Andrew Luck. Had everything you wanted except a rocket arm. Never really materialized to that Peyton Manning hype but similarly got close to zero help in Indy. RB - Barkley, no question. Had zero significant flaws as a prospect. Is an elite RB already. WR: AJ Green. Wowed with his leaping ability and hands. Everyone always said “best prospect since AJ Green” once he was taken, he’s that guy. TE: Hockenson. Close call here, Ebron had a lot of hype as an athletic tight end. Hock ultimately more well rounded, though. Had a bumpy year as a rookie but TEs come in with a steep curve. T: Toughest call. I’m actually going to lean Trent Williams - Fisher was right there with Joeckel, definitely not a clear call between the two. Matt Kalil and, despite going lower, Okung are in this debate too, I don’t think there’s an easy answer. An elite tackle for his entire career, T-Will was a great pick. G: Nelson, but more debatable than others. Warmack was a hell of a prospect, but Nelson takes it here. Maybe the best guard in the league already. C: Maurkice Pouncey. Another prospect with only minor flaws, he was the top dog IMO. He’s underwhelmed compared to how he started his career, but ultimately a good pick. DE (edge): Clowney. Debatable with Garrett regarding hype, but I think that’s largely because Garrett came second and Clowney underwhelmed as a pro. Clowney was an even freakier athlete and was considered a force of nature. Only ever lived up to that potential in small spurts as a Texan. DT: Closer call than some make it out to be, but it’s Suh. Dareus isn’t getting brought up despite deserving mention IMO, but Suh takes the cake. An immovable object that’d destroy the pocket on every play. Suh was great for a while, but fell off and never really seemed disciplined as a pro. LBer (edge): Definitely Von Miller. Basically Aaron Donald in a linebacker’s body. Uncanny strength for someone of his size and crazy explosiveness off the line. Big home run for Denver. LBer (off-LOS): Absolute coin toss between Kuechly and McClain. I actually think McClain had more hype but Kuechly was the better prospect, by a hair. McClain was a bonehead and never did more than flash as a great backer, while Luke was a DPOY and elite defender for most of his career. CB: Definitely Peterson. Had take-it-to-the-house playmaking ability that most didn’t have, while also being an elite athlete with great size. I don’t think anyone approached Peterson status, but Ramsey came closest. PP was overrated as an elite corner early in his career, but certainly became one after a few seasons. S: Eric Berry. The only thing I can remember anyone saying negatively about Berry is that maybe he was an inch shorter than you’d like from a perfect safety prospect. He could do everything and did so in the NFL. Injuries/illness are the only things that could slow him down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
