Most overrated first round prospect.

[Cbus cardsfan]

Every year there are guys that some people love and some people hate. Who is you most overrated 1st round prospect for this year's draft.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

My choice was an easy one.. Mike Evans. I think he's the second coming of Mike Williams/David Terrell/Charles Rogers. Like them, I don't think Evans has the separation ability to get open in the NFL. Many of his catches were balls that were thrown up for grabs by Manziel and he came down with it. That's not going to work in the NFL. I think he has bust written all over him.

Second choice is Bortles just because he'll likely be way over-drafted and is nowhere near a top 10 pick based on ability alone.

Haha Clinton-Dix looked sloppy and un-athletic for most of the year. If it was injury-related he has a chance to prove it at the combine. Calvin Pryor has better film.

Marqise Lee is a body catcher and injury-prone. Don't think he's a high first-rounder.

 

[az jam]

Put down Bridgewater, don't think he is a top 5 pick. Would like to see this poll done again after the combine as that will give us some good data on actual sizes, speed, etc.

 

[vinnymac]

I have a tie and Bortles and Manzeil. In looking at this draft, I don't think this is a very good draft class. There are are going to be a lot of 1st round disappointments.

 

[Harry]

I'd say Carr. He's a huge first round risk, but someone will try him.

 

[Krangodnzr]

Taylor Lewan. Sloppy, sluggish liineman. Probably my least favorite top player in the draft. I wouldn't really be excited about him with our 2nd round pick since he has such limited potential on the blindside.

 

[Jim Otis]

Yep it seems to happen every year , a Peter Warrwick type that looks all world in college comes to the combine , and runs a 4.7 40 .
Manziel looks like a top prospect to some , but he looks like a top suspect to me .

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

I think whoever drafts Manziel over Bridgewater will regret it badly.

I chose "other" mine is Khalil Mack. The dude became a legend from one game against Ohio st. The rest of his numbers were very pedestrian and against sub par competition

 

[Snakester]

Bortles and Robinson are my two. I think Bortles should be a second rounder and not a top ten guy. I think Robinson will have trouble with speed rushers. Love the guys run blocking. Would make a pro bowl guard but I don't see him as a great LT like some do.

That's a valid point. Even moreso when you throw in the fact he was facing a freshman making his first career start that game.

 

[RugbyMuffin]

If I wasn't such a hater, I would have picked Greg Robinson, but I picked Manziel.

 

[Totally_Red]

Derek Carr! After watching the bowl game against SC, he doesn't look like a first-rounder at all.

 

[Duckjake]

We're paying a WR like that a jillion dollars a year.

 

[PACardsFan]

Of the names given, I would have to say Lewan. QB's always have a high bust potential & at least one of these QB's will disappoint. Manziel won't be one that disappoints. Manziel has 3 sets of eyes attached to his head. He made average A&M linemen milllionaires in the NFL. He will be the story of the NFL next year. I'm an instant fan of whoever drafts the kid.

 

[Southpaw]

Bridgewater. I believe he will have a good ( decent ) career, but I find it hard to believe he is the clear cut best player in this draft.

My 2nd choice would be any Alabama player, but there are none listed. They come from a great program and play along side very good players and get good coaching in the Saban system, which is not NFL style. They seem to be over rated, as individuals, because of the team's success.

Tied college record for tackles for loss...playing for Buffalo. As far as his legend status, he was highly thought of last year. He rose 1 round from his Jr to Sr year and on the biggest stage of his career, he posted a sack, tfl, and int. Big time player.

 

[Chopper0080]

Lewan. Someone will be drafting a LT and be getting a RT. Won't be a dominant offensive player. Though after Pugh last year and Bulaga before him, this isn't a new thing.

 

[BW52]

Clowney.I think he will be barely average at best.

 

[GatorAZ]

Clowney.I think he will be barely average at best.

Based on him coasting last year? Dude is a monster and will put up Peppers' numbers.

I think he will find out real quick he is facing another level every week.The way he coasted in 2013 won`t work in the NFL.I see a Simeon Rice attitude with worse results.My opinion that he will be barely average and nothing more.

Johnny Manziel

Would've been nice to see him go up against top talent at the senior bowl. The tackle for loss record is nice, but look at the competition he did it against

I'll take the opposite. He might be the best defensive prospect in a decade. A lot of the same things were said about LeBron James when he came to the NBA out of HS and he is clearly the best player in the world right now.
