"Well that's just, like, you know, your opinion, man."

Terrible list.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No, that's a perfect list,


Aug 15, 2013, 8:56 AM

surely 4 3 of the top 5 come from the mighty SEC.

Gil Brandt was a great talent evaulator for the Cowboys ...


Aug 15, 2013, 9:03 AM

... 40 years ago.

Seriously, though ... this maybe a great situation for Clemson, because Sammy is going to have to re-prove himself and hopefully that will be a huge incentive for him to become the consensus #1 WR in college football by the end of the season.

badge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

With lists like that he should still be working for them...


Aug 15, 2013, 9:18 AM

They'd get two Tony Romos!

Aug 15, 2013, 9:50 AM [ in reply to No, that's a perfect list, ]

Only 3 of the top 5 are from the SEC.

I can see a case made for Lee and maybe Evans being better than Watkins, but not the others.

Am I missing something, or aren't


Aug 15, 2013, 10:05 AM

2. Ole Miss
3. Alabama
4. Tennessee
5. Texas A&M

All in the SEC?



Edit: My bad was wrong

Davis plays for the University of Texas. UT...

You are missing something.

#4 is Texas not Tennessee (Mike Davis)

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Ah my bad, grandad went to Tennessee,


Aug 15, 2013, 11:01 AM

made an assumption that UT was Tenn...whoops

I thought so at first too

Fair enough after last "down" season, lets see how it


Aug 15, 2013, 9:09 AM

stands after this year when he blows up!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Oh Geez....


Aug 15, 2013, 10:10 AM

Sammy #1 WR in the country-BAR NONE, and Boyd is the number #1 Qb.



#21

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Wow......$EC homer***

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


#1 by the end of the year


Aug 15, 2013, 10:30 AM

He's got the best QB of anyone on that list. I can't definitively say he's a better WR than Lee, but he's def. got a better QB.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think Sammy is a solid #2, if not a #1A with Lee


Aug 15, 2013, 12:28 PM

However, Lee's numbers last year were absolutely ridiculous even if Sammy outperformed him during his freshman year. I also wouldn't sleep on USC's QB's. They're unproven, but they're among the most talented in the country (a 5 star guy is third on the depth chart behind two other guys who were among the top 5 QBs in their classes).

Aug 15, 2013, 7:16 PM

Bs like I said before I live right here in la. Kiffin can't get it done the teams will suck again. Overrated as always. Clemson would have walked out here a spanked USC. I know I have the pleasure of seeing both play live.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

usc,miss.,ut and maybe a&m(ncaa ?) ,all have qb questions


Aug 15, 2013, 10:51 AM

watkins should have no trouble moving up this list - and fast!

watkins should be ranked higher.....


Aug 15, 2013, 11:25 AM

1st rounder w/o a doubt

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I hope Sammy hears that loud and clear


Aug 15, 2013, 11:54 AM

although I do believe Amari Cooper is in the top 3

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Cooper is gonna be a stud. I think he belongs up there with Sammy***


Aug 15, 2013, 12:04 PM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

so let's compare stats for these guys...


Aug 15, 2013, 12:24 PM

1. Marquise Lee
2012- 1721 (!) yards receiving
2011- 1143 yards receiving

2. Donte Moncrief
2012- 979 yards receiving
2011- 454 yards receiving

3. Amari Cooper
2012- 1000 yards receiving

4. Mike Davis
2012- 939 yards receiving
2011- 609 yards receiving

5. Mike Evans
2012- 1105 yards receiving

6. Sammy Watkins
2012- 708 yards receiving
2011- 1219 yards receiving


So, uhh... Sammy only played healthy in about 8 games last year, and he still only had about 200 yards less receving than Davis and Moncrief. Somehow, that "down year" from when he outpeformed every other WR in this list during his freshman year makes him not as good as these other guys.

Aug 15, 2013, 1:32 PM

Him and Marqise Lee will be sitting pretty at 1a and 1b by the end of the season. I'm not worried. He will still put up great numbers and be a top 15 pick in 2014, the same can't be said about all those other guys except Lee.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I live in la. Lee is no watkins. look at the bowl game. Lee got lit by Georgia Tech


Aug 15, 2013, 7:13 PM

USC couldn't do Jack. Watkins just needs to be serious and dominate.

Aug 15, 2013, 7:31 PM

I don't live in LA, I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn Express, but I do have a TV and have see Lee play. He is awesome. He had 8 100+ yard games last year. Anyone can have a bad game, so you can't define him by one game. Watkins had virtually the exact same stats as Lee did against GT.
