Command Data really nailed this DL



He is happy to have been wrong. But nobody expected Q to become the most dominant defensive player in America.

Lulz, Mel Kiper and his famous quotes...

On Joey Harrington
quote:

Kiper - Joey Harrington had a Brett Favre-like flair for the dramatics.



On David Carr
quote:

Kiper - David Carr was going to remind Texans fans of Troy Aikman.


On Jimmy Clausen
quote:

If he (Clausen) is not a successful starting quarterback in the NFL, I'm done. That's it. I'm out."



On LaDainian Tomlinson
quote:

LaDainian Tomlinson is the 25th best player in the 2001 draft.


On JaMarcus Russell
quote:

Three years from now you could be looking at a guy that's certainly one of the elite top 5 quarterbacks in the league." He even compared him to John Elway.

Are you implying Kiper is wrong about Williams?

Have you watched him play?

Mel Kiper Jr knows nothing about football. Why anyone listens to this guy is beyond me.

I mean he's implying he may be wrong about him being successful once he gets to the NFL

The problem is all those quotes were from Mel about how careers would go, not when they would be drafted. For a lot of these guys, it doesn't matter if they are good 5 years after draft night; they made millions and at the least have connections for life.

I'm not saying he won't be good in the NFL or a top pick.

On that 2nd play it legit looks like the OL let him by, or it was blown blocking. That play tells me nothing.

The first one he uses his hands really well really fast and blows by the C. That shows you something

Bama is so loaded that I don’t even know who this guy is and couldn’t be less surprised he’s a top 5 pick. Every time I watch alabama all they do is talk about tua

If you don’t know who he is you must not have watched the Bama - LSU game.

He'd be riding the pine at Mississippi State. Bama's starters are on the same level with Mississippi State's second string.

I'd need some context. I mean, if you select all the wrong ones and it totals to 5 wrong predictions over a 10 year+ stretch, that's actually pretty good.
