How's that a hot take? This class is LOADED.

There are 4 Franchise QBs: Sam Darnold (USC), Josh Allen (Wyoming), Josh Rosen (UCLA), and Lamar Jackson (Louisville).

5 All-Pro/Pro-Bowl RBs: Saquon Barkley (Penn St.), Rashaad Penny (San Diego St.), Ronald Jones II (USC), John Kelly (Tennessee), and Mark Walton (Miami).

6 All-Pro/Pro-Bowl WRs: Antonio Callaway (Florida), Equanimeous St. Brown (Notre Dame), Michael Gallup (Colorado St.), DJ Moore (Maryland), Anthony Miller (Memphis), and Deon Cain (Clemson).

6 All-Pro/Pro-Bowl OL/DL: G Quenton Nelson (Notre Dame), G Isaiah Wynn (Georgia), Will Hernandez (UTEP), DT Vita Vea (Washington), DT Da'Ron Payne (Alabama), Harrison Phillips (Stanford)

4 All-Pro/Pro-Bowl DE/LB: DE Marcus Davenport (UTSA), DE Arden Key (LSU), DE Bradley Chubb (NC State), LB Leighton Vander Esch (Boise St.), Tremaine Edmunds (Virginia Tech)

5 All-Pro/Pro-Bowl DBs: S Derwin James (Florida St.), S Justin Reid (Stanford), CB/S Rashaan Gaulden (Tennessee), CB/S Minkah Fitzpatrick (Alabama), CB Tavarus McFadden (Florida St.)

Not many drafts produce this much elite talent. 30 guys with All-Pro or Pro-Bowl potential is INSANE.

The 2017 and 2018 NFL Drafts will go down as two of the best drafts in NFL history and will define the NFL for the next 8 years.
Say what y'all want but Swag hot takes on the draft are usually good outside of Tennessee prospects. He got lucky with Kamara.

2018 NFL Draft has a chance to be one of the best in NFL history. So much talent at almost every position.

QB, RB, and LB are especially loaded. Also the top-end talent is ELITE.

Lotta superstars for the next 5-10 years in the NFL are gonna come out of this draft.
I can't speak for most positions but this was the best year of college football I've watched from a talent standpoint of middle to good teams. You expect the great teams to have a lot of talent but talent was around across the board.

No. He's just the start. You guys will realize soon just how much we had at Tennessee. Alvin Kamara is just the tip of the iceberg.

The amount of NFL talent Butch Jones wasted in 2015 and 2016 will become legendary. People are already shytting on him for keeping Kamara on the bench. Just wait till the guys he played start dominating the NFL.

Josh Dobbs was held back by Butch Jones incompetence. He'll be in the NFL what most think Deshaun Watson will be.

You must not know me. I'm usually the guy who shyts on draft prospects and says they are overrated. In 2015, I was the only guy on here saying that Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota, and Amari Cooper were not that good and wouldn't be stars in the NFL. I called that draft class epically weak and was attacked for it. 3 years later I'm looking right as fukk as all 3 of those guys are just average players and that draft class has produced almost no elite NFL talent. In 2015 I said that class that the only star from that draft would be Todd Gurley. And just as I predicted Todd Gurley has developed into the biggest star from that draft. I also correctly predicted David Johnson as a potential late round steal before the draft. Bold Predictions for the 2015 NFL Draft class

I'm typically the guy who says most of the top-end guy will be busts. This year is different. This is a all-time great class for talent. It's like the 2011 NFL Draft that delivered so many of the superstars of today's NFL.

2018 NFL Draft will go down in history as one of the best ever.

I'm telling you if Key is there at 18 he's taking him. Key is the type of pass rusher Carroll likes that's why he gambled on Dion Jordan, Bruce Irvin fits that mold too

Kamara went to the Saints tho they make everyone look way better than they are

7.7 yards per touch. NFL record for a player with more than 200 touches in a season.

Even if the Saints made him look better because he's a perfect fit for their scheme, his stats last year were ALL-TIME great per-touch which should let you know he woulda had success anywhere.

Stop being mad cause Leonard Fournette is hot trash in the NFL. 3.9 yards per carry = :scusthov:

I have Arden Key going to Seattle right now for the same reason. If he falls to 18, there is no way Pete Carroll doesn't scoop him up. And it would be a great pick cause Arden Key is a Simeon Rice clone. He's gonna be a perennial All-Pro/Pro-Bowl pass rusher.
