razy that 19 of 25 are from the west though.


Even more so that 17 of the 25 come from just 3 schools: Alabama, Ole Miss or LSU.

Although I'm sure Bama will have a strong LB core as always, I highly doubt they have 2 LB's more deserving of being on a top 25 player list than JRM going into the year.




Holy shite. This thread just keeps getting better and better.


I love me some Volols in the offseason.

Alabama has 8 guys and somehow Marlon Humphrey isn't one of them. Weird. Minkah's fun to watch and makes a lot of plays, but for now he's not close to as good in coverage.

Jeremy Sprinkle, TE - Arkansas.

He could be even better than Hunter Henry, I think he's more athletic. Only question is 'who's going to get him the ball?'

Tennessee players are rated too low
They should be 1,2,3

on a serious note Cam Robinson is #1 IMO

This was my thought as well... Seems to be a really solid TE but could have questionable QB play limiting him this year...

Alabama with 0 running backs on that list just feels strange.

25. Tim Williams, LB, Alabama
24. Marquis Haynes, DE, Ole Miss

22. Davon Godchaux, DT, LSU
21. Tony Conner, S, Ole Miss
20. O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama
19. Evan Engram, TE, Ole Miss
18. Eddie Jackson, S, Alabama
17. Minkah Fitzpatrick, DB, Alabama
16. Arden Key, DE, LSU
15. Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama
14. Joshua Dobbs, QB, Tennessee
13. Zach Cunningham, LB, Vanderbilt
12. Christian Kirk, WR, Texas A&M
11. Jalen Hurd, RB, Tennessee
10. Nick Chubb, RB, Georgia
9. Jamal Adams, S, LSU
8. Jalen Tabor, CB, Florida
7. Chad Kelly, QB, Ole Miss
6. Calvin Ridley, WR, Alabama
5. Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee
4. Cam Robinson, OT, Alabama
3. Jonathan Allen, DE, Alabama 
2. Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M
1. Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU


Overrated:

12. Christian Kirk, WR, Texas A&M - Should be in 20-25 range considering small body of work.
15. Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama - Physical freak but he's not Ragland yet.
20. O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama - One good game, pls.

Underrated:

7. Chad Kelly, QB, Ole Miss - Too low considering he's the best QB. QB > Every other position. Would put him in the 4-6 range at worst.
10. Nick Chubb, RB, Georgia - Injury puts him too low, I guess since Michel filled in well they downgraded him.
