I'd like to see Mike Goodson and Martellus Bennett a little higher in the rankings, but I like that they are up there. If Bryant wasn't always injured I'd want him higher too probably.

[Tubby]

I think that Jake Locker should be higher, but that may just be my inner homer speaking.

9. James Laurinitis LB Ohio State
-Got all the breaks with turnovers seemingly falling into his lap and isn’t the Top Tier LB prospect some are making him out to be. Doesn’t have the natural instincts that A.J. Hawk possessed and is not nearly as good of a tackler. He may not be physically able to dominate at the next level but will be a film/weight room junkie that will give his all to improve and help his team get Wins. A player like Posluszny that every NFL coach will want on his team.


Great analysis all in all. I gotta wonder tho, after your analysis of Laurinaitis, you make it sound like he should be a 2nd - 3rd rounder. Second, your comparing Laurainitis' sophomore season to Hawk's senior season. Laurinaitis was > Hawk as a sophomore, so I wouldn't say everything here about not being as sure a tackler, physically dominant etc. is true.

[keylime_5]

right now there is no RB in the class of 2010 even close to the pro potential of Chris Wells. Spiller at #1? are you joking, he's like 185 lbs. Wells is 6-1/230 and runs a 4.45.

[georgiafan]

very good job, I think Stafford should be higher then #4 but i'm biased.

Seriously, Wells has great pro potential but he hasn't shown to be a dominating college player yet. He has shown flashes, but Spiller played so much better last year and has amazing pro potenital himself. Wow he was a 190 pound true freshman and tore it up last year. I mean there is no way he puts on weight. Wells has great potential, but so does Spiller. And as of right now Spiller is a better prospect because what he did on the field.

[jkpigskin]

props on doing this... havnt read it all yet, but will get to it

[Go_Eagles77]

Nice job + rep

[WarOnTheShore]

Chris Wells needs to learn how to hold onto the ball better. I've only seen the practices, but DeMarco Murray looks really good.

Nice work on this. Of course impossible to agree on all of it, but nice stuff - just watch some of that grammar.

[Sveen]

Very impressive!

[Hines]

u did a hella good job

[Iamcanadian]

Lot of hard work there but full of huge mistakes as well. Predicting 2010 and 2011 is a joke at this time with practically nothing to base it on. Predicting 2007 at this time has about a 50% chance of being half right and 2008 is really pressing your luck. You would be far more substainable if you said your 2007/2008 rankings were a starting point from which begin.
Baker will be drafted top 5 in 2007, Long is not as good as him. Mike Hart will be very lucky to be drafted at all. He'll never be a pro, just another great college player who has no future as a pro. There is no contraversy, that's just a fact. Jackson WR, Cal is likely 5'10", 160lbs and his chances of going top 10 in any draft year is nil. Lawrence Jackson is a top 5 talent next year.
Finally, Nate Longshore will NEVER be a 1st rounder. The pro GM's will NEVER draft a Tedford QB in round 1 again, NEVER!

Of course, Scott has Long listed as his #1 senior right now, and has Hart listed as the #1 senior back, so if nothing else, his rankings are somewhat in line with Scott's extremely early rankings.

[jdcozart]

Have you seen this week's sporting news. It has a quote from an AFC scout that says Nate Davis (Ball State QB) is the next great MAC quarterback. You need to move him way up in your rankings as well as Freeman from KSU.

Mendehall should be higher in the '09 RB rankings.

Eh, I'm not so sure about this. Wells looks like a lock for the first round with his athleticism. Scat backs like Spiller are a lot easier to find than 230 pound running backs with 4.5 speed.

Colt Brennan @ 6 is crazy. Way, way to high.

All of the 2010 and 2011 rankings are completely based on recruiting rankings. Nothing wrong with that but they aren't NFL draft rankings.

My school played A.J. Wallace, he's the 4th corner in '10.

http://scout.scout.com/a.z?s=162&p=8&c=1&nid=2302675

Seen him play live, he should be added to '11. He's like Tim Teebow, but can throw. Since Florida seems set at QB, I don't think he will be playing QB.

Spiller played more. Wells had a couple 100 yard games and that one great game against Michigan featuring that 50 yard TD run where he burned the whole defense, but didn't get enough carries last year - but he did have 500 some yards. Wells is full time this year and it's safe to assume he is gonna do a lot more this year in that Spiller will since he's splitting carries, so that kinda cancels out your argument basing these guys rankings on production. Wells is a beast, he's far and away a much better pro prospect than Spiller. When's the last time a 190 lb. back went in the first? 1980s?

Seeing how Spiller isn't even 20 years old yet I'd say he can probably add a few pounds to his frame

[keylime_5]

I'm not denying that.....but he's still 190 lbs any way you look at it. He can't switch bodies, he can add weight but that still won't make him the ideal 210 lbs. or so. We can't assume he's gonna be 205 to 210 when he gets drafted any more than we can assume Beanie Wells is gonna have consecutive 1700+ yard seasons. Both might happen, but you can't use that as reason to why Spiller is better than Wells.

If you're 6-1/230 and good then the scouts automatically give you first advantage over 6-0/190 guys who both have great careers. As long as Wells has a good sophomore and junior year at tOSU, he will certainly be a higher pick than Spiller any way you look at it.

Can you explain to me when Wells already out rushed and outplayed Spiller? Oh wait he hasn't yet. I've already said Wells has amazing pro potential, but he hasn't proven to be better on the field than Spiller has yet. Spiller was a 190 pound freshman. There is no chance he gains 20-25 pounds in 4 years.

Do you really think college players don't gain weight? Yea Wells having 1,700 yards twice is much more realistic than a player gaining 20 pounds.

Two players, which one are you taking first?

6-1, 235, 1300 yards, 24 TDs.

6-0, 200, 1700 yards, 16 TDs.

#9 in the Junior Wide Receivers

[Caddy]

2. Calais Campbell DE Miami
-The best Defensive End prospect since Julius Peppers.

Mario Williams?

[jbooshey]

This list is incredible...I thought I'd give you a little homer insight on some Wisconsin boys...
1) You have Andy Kemp ahead of Kraig Urbik in your 2009 interior lineman...that shouldn't be, Andy Kemp has struggled.
2)By next year (maybe this year) UW will have a top 5 nationally LB corp...Jonathan Casillas and DeAndre Levy at OLB will both be Juniors and Elijah Hodge in the middle will be a RsSO...these guys will be dominant and garner A LOT of attention.
3) Glad to see you have DeBauche at punter but our Kicker who is in the same class is also a pro prospect with one of the stronger legs in the nation (Taylor Melhaff)
4) A 2010 DE to look for would be Kirk DeCremer (6'5" 240lbs) he was raved about in camp last year.
5) In 2011 you have Lance Kendricks as the number 10 WR, but he has already been moved to TE in the mold of Travis Beckum. If you want to stay with Wisconsin in that spot I'd highly recommend Nick Toon an incoming frosh (6'2" 195lbs 4.5, Al Toons son, Wisconsin HS player of the year)
6) In 2011 you have Josh Oglesby as an interior lineman, at 6'8" he is destined for probably right tackle, but if good enough will shift Bscherer over to the right side, but he IS a tackle.

Great job on the list! It is quite a feat! Hope I was of help

Why the Hell am I not there?!

[afftbl10]

Im a Notre Dame fan but you overrated John Sullivan big time

[reigle9]

Don't agree with a lot of the rankings, but that's one hell of a list. Good job.

[HoopsDemon12]

i give you props cause that would take forever!!!

[marks01234]

Mario Williams?

I noticed that too. Campbell may enter the draft more polished than Mario and Peppers but I'm not sure he will test the same athletically.

Draftguru,

I'm not sure Spiller has the body type too much bigger than he already is without losing his speed and quickness. Some guys have the body frame to hold a lot more weight and they are able to put on the 20-25 pounds easily over a college career. Spiller isn't going to be one of these guys.

[-black]

wow......great effort

[coCANES17]

Thanks for the feedback. There were a couple of sophomores that I thought I put in there that I must of missed Jared Cook WR South Carolina, Greg Matthews WR Michigan, and Elijah Hodge LB Wisconsin being the ones that stand out. It wan't as hard as you might of think. How I did it for the Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores was I knew probably the top 10-15 players at their position. Then I went through it team by team, position by position to check if I missed anyone. I broke out a lot of the tape I had of last season. I have probably every major conference team in at least one game for the bigger teams like USC and Michigan I have basically every game. For the lower classes I was just basing it off some of the film I've seen of theres on a few recruiting websites I frequent and seeing how they'll fit in at their school (ex. I don't have McKnight at the top RB spot because he's at USC). I probably missed a few players but I just picked up the new Phil Steele mag so I'll sort my way through that to see who I missed. One player that has grown on me since I went back and watched the games from last year is Chad Henne. I had knocks on him because he didn't win any big games but just watching him throw the ball he is no lower then my 3rd best QB and I could see him being at the top spot if takes the Wolverines to the promise land. Fr the mini Spiller-Wells debate that broke out in this thread: Looking back on the past top drafted RBs (AD, Marshawn, Mauroney, Steven Jackson, Larry Johnson) they're all bigger backs so I guess I would have to give Wells the advantage.

[draftguru151]

And Reggie Bush was a higher rated prospect than everyone one of those guys. ;)

[ToldLikeItIs]

Sam Young is way too high.

[OhioState]

Spiller is Warrick Dunn. Wells is Larry Johnson

[sweetness34]

Mendehall should be higher in the '09 RB rankings.

I'm going to disagree. Talent wise, yes no question but he hasn't done enough on the field to warrant being higher than #10. He has fumbling issues, he hasn't carried the load before, and he's been battling injuries all offseason. Rashard has the ability to be one of the best RB's in that draft class but right now he needs to prove it, and hopefully he does that this season.

[FutureScout]

Kiper supposidly came out with his junior list, and Stephen McGee was #2 QB. I was very supprised but I dont know if its true or not.

[coCANES17]

I'm glad somebody brought up Mendenhall. I do agree he should be much higher and the only 2 rbs in his class I would take over him are McFadden and Stewart. The main thing is he just hasn't shown off his stuff as the guys I put ahead of him have yet. I thought Illinois was a great choice for him as he could turn out to be one of the main building blocks for Zook to turn that program around. I think he would be wise, even with a strong year, to stay for his senior season and be a 1st rounder cause I think the floodgates are going to open up for junior RBs and WRs declaring this year. All the guys listed in front of him with the exception of Rice have a good shot at declaring depending on how there seasons go.

As for Kiper having McGee as 2nd best junior QB. I hope thats not true. I'm not even sure why people even listen to Kiper anymore. If I want a opinon from the so called "experts" I turn to Mayock or Brandt because they have shown they know there stuff. I've seen a couple A&M games and McGee is an extremely tough kid that has great mobility but as a Pro QB prospect he is just ehh. To have him over players like Bobby Reid, Chase Daniel, Ben Olson, Curtis Painter and Chase Holbrook is just assinine. I could make a case for him against Carpenter, Lee, and Longshore just based off production but not pro potential.

Not a very good QB group, the #1 guy on the list doesn't start yet.

[coCANES17]

Just saw that his #1 QB was Hunter Cantwell from Louisville. That's a surprise. I know he played well when Brohm was hurt against some below average teams. The only game I saw of Cantwells' was the Gator Bowl against Virginia Tech and he looked good and showed he was tough. He didn't jump out as a first round talent though. Maybe Kiper has the inside track to what the scouts think of him.

[goblue8888]

Mallett should be ranked higher than Clausen on pro potential. He is 6ft 7 255 and throws the ball 86 yards as high school senior.

[FutureScout]

give mcgee time though. it was his first year as a starter. He wins games. In the end, thats all that matters about a football game.

Not for a pro prospect.

[reigle9]

I really thought Dorsey was going to have a better career than he has. Maybe he'll get a couple starts this year before they throw Quinn to the lions.

[ccB]

Best thread ever

[ccB]

Ooooooooooooooooooooopsssssss

[P-L]

I'd just like to say that Spiller is the same height and 10 lbs less than Reggie Bush was coming out. Bush went #2 overall. Spiller could probably put on 10 lbs in the next couple of years.

[YAYareaRB]

So who can play D-Line in the 3-4?

[Makaveli]

amazing +rep

[HEISMANHERSCHEL]

That is a lot of work, +rep from me bro...

However, I know Henry Melton. He is big and has talent. But he cant keep his crap straight...

Just inside info.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

That's incredible man.

+rep for the work put in.

[coCANES17]

Edited my list. Moved a couple players around and added a bunch of younger guys. I guess I'll go with this as my "official" preseason rankings so to speak.

[HoopsDemon12]

Mallett should be ranked higher than Clausen on pro potential. He is 6ft 7 255 and throws the ball 86 yards as high school senior.

not to mention isnt clausen a 20 year old freshman?

[BamaFalcon59]

Spiller is Warrick Dunn. Wells is Larry Johnson

Warrick (12th) was a superior prospect than Larry (27th) coming out of college. But I don't like the Spiller- Warrick Dunn comparison. Spiller was 5'11 190 as a freshman, Dunn was 5'8 180 coming out. Spiller will be (easily) bigger than Dunn, and has a lot better pure speed. Dunn has the superior agility and is a better all around back, but Spiller is probably a better pure runner. The acceleration is roughly equal. Spiller has such great game speed and acceleration, and he should be a solid 5'11 205 coming to the NFL.

JMO.

[fischbowl]

Excellent List CoCanes.

There are a few changes id make but good job.

[elway777]

Mallet is so overated it's insane. He hasn't played one college down and didn't seem poised in the pocket in high school either. He has a great arm, WOO HOO, so does Jeff George.

You shut your mouth Elway! That's quite enough out of you. ;) :) You don't hear me talking down on your boy Mark Sanchez do you? :)

[Jags#7]

didn't Ben Olson Graduate from high school in like 2002?

[neko4]

Colt Brennan @ 6 is crazy. Way, way to high.


WTF???? Brennan is a top 3 QB
You can say all you want about him being a system guy, but he's the real deal. He's taller than Chang and has a much better arm them him too.

I think that Sanchez is about 4 spots to high, and IMO McCoy should be higher

[mqtirishfan]

No love at all for Reshad Jones? I know I'm being picky, but shouldn't he at least be a top 20 safety in '08?
