So there isn't much room for kids who are pure athletes but aren't technically sound at their position? I'll buy that. However I still think in college there is a gradient to the positions as to which ones require more technical skill vs others to be great.

At kick/punt returner maybe. See Korliss Marshall, Dominique Reed, Joe Adams, etc.. Nowhere else though.
I definitely wouldn't say Alex Collins had to rely on his athleticism to be a great RB. The combine showed us how little athleticism he actually has.
Ignoring special teams, I'd rank them like this.
DE
OLB
DT
ILB
DB
RB
OT
WR
OG/C
QB

If anything, maybe Nose gaurd. They normally just plug holes
