re: Edited: Cam Akers is now #1 RB (#3 overall)

In all seriousness, this kid has some amazing opportunities.

FSU would be gold. He would have a good QB he will be with for at least 2 years, system conducive to great RB production, and the window is there for him to play from day one. The only problem there is that he isn't necessarily ready to go out of the box... which is where LSU's benefits come in.

LSU has a proven track record of pumping out RB's. Elite talent surrounding you. You get to back up Guice for a year while you learn the ropes, which could be huge for Cam since he has technically been a QB for a few years. For that reason this is probably his best option, as good as he is he will need a little time to develop pass blocking skills, catching balls out of the backfield, sweeps, etc... In most cases, as a RB, you are only getting the ball on 1/4 to 1/3 of the snaps. The way you play on the other 2/3 of the plays is hugely important.
