How exactly does anyone live up to the #1 overall prospect? Seems like the kiss of death to me.
Exactly
2013 - Nkemdiche
2012 - Dorial Green-Beckham
2011 - Clowney
2010 - Ronald Powell
2009 - Matt Barkley
2008 - DaQuan Bowers
2007 - Joe McKnight
To say he is a bust because he had the #1 overall prospect tag, is absurd. Nkemdiche took over in the biggest games and always did his job. He embraced the double team. There's videos of him at practice wanting to go against two guys in one-on-one drills.
Now, is he a complete package, like you'd "expect" from the #1 guy? No, but none of the other guys were either.
And for record, Clowney had one total sack in his 7 games vs an SEC West opponent(MSU his freshman year).
You could argue Nkemdiche is anywhere in the top 3 of that list. I'd take Bowers over him.
