At one time, Alabama’s five-star recruits were picked in the first round at a rate of 48.3 percent, while five-star recruits that go to any other school were selected at a 17 percent clip. That's more than double the NFL 1st round success of 5 stars.

I think this is the take away. You'll have a better chance if you're starting with 5 stars but they still have to be developed. Look at that all time great class at TAM for an example.
