Speedy will even if it's just a return man. However, I think he'll make a decent NFL receiver.

I don't remember him being a 5 star.
Edit: ESPN, 247, and Rivals all listed him as a 4 star.

Noil, Treadwell, and Dupre will make a roster. Dont know much about the others

Randle lived up to the 5 star billing at LSU but not Toliver

I'd rate DGB, who btw, never played a down for OU, as an "undetermined", I mean sure, he had a great game or two, but mostly against UK level schools. His freshman year was a big nothing, so one season with a few highlites really, you could probably say half - good half - undetermined.

Neither do I. Regardless it's a shame what happened, dude had a ton of talent and I'm convinced would have been one of the best receivers in the conference this year had he been able to stick around

Marlon Brown, from your bust column, made the NFL.

Took him forever to learn the playbook but he was great when he did. A nasty injury ended his promising senior year.

I didn't see Amari Cooper on there but then I remembered that he was a 4*. How he was only a 4* is beyond me, his film and camps were great

how can Terrance Toliver be considered to have mixed reviews? i'm not sure if he has any receptions in an actual game in his NFL career. I don't think he's ever even been on a 53 man roster. He's absolutely a bust. Unimpressive all through college and went undrafted.

Treadwell is 'undetermined'? He's a 1st round pick next year if healthy and arguably the first receiver off the board.

Never understood how Cooper was not a 5 star guy in high school. When you saw his tape and the video from the all-star games, it was pretty obvious how talented he was compared to the others he was competing with.
Is it a crap shoot, determining a high 4 and a 5? Is it really just subjective to the company/person doing the ratings? Or is there a real objective way they do it?
Maybe this isn't the board to ask this?

because he hasn't played in the NFL yet. Pretty sure all those guys on the undetermined list are guys who have yet to play in the league
