If there is someone on this board that is so smart, that they can say that the following states: GA, TX, CA, LA, FL are better than the other, then they have to be the best talent evaluator on the planet.

That statement is pretty much a "Lets punt" in a discussion.

I'd rather have defensive players and speed players from Florida over Texas.

Southern kids seem to be tougher in the trenches than Texas kids.

That's just my take.

Last nasty Dlinemen out of Texas?

You can look at the type of top tier talent each produces.

Tx is mainly QBs, WRs, and RBs.

Florida is RBs, WRs, TEs, Oline, Defensive players

LA is RBs, WRs, Defensive players.

CA is QBs, WRs, RBs, DBs.

GA is WRs, RBs, DBs, LBs.

It has to do with the style of play in each state, Tx is mainly 7 on 7 spread type, CA, FL, LA, and GA play more of a pro style.

If you look at what Arkansas produces consistently it would be RBs and Oline, with the popularity of the spread, you haven't seen an increase in WRs and QBs from the state like you would expect. Defensive prospects are mainly d line.
