    The Rookie Scouting Portfolio is a site run by Matt Waldman that I found earlier this year when looking at prospects. The coolest thing he does are these scouting videos where he has casual video conferences with professional scouts, and here are the two that he did on Leonard Williams and Devin Smith. Unfortunately the video quality is not great, but you can see what they are talking about if you watch closely. My recommendation would be to watch the RSP video start to finish followed by the much better video quality from draftbreakdown.com afterwards.

    Waldman and his guests are very high on both of our first two picks, so I would recommend this to anyone who has the time and patience.

    The guy who joins for the Devin Smith video is actually the guy who wrote the article about him posted a couple days ago.

    I like that he mentions Williams in comparison to Sheldon Richardson to highlight major differences in the two. Seems like Williams has the potential to be a generational player.

    They throw out names like:

    Sapp (in regards to Williams being in on every play)
    Reggie White (in regards to Williams' beast strength)
    Sheldon Richardson ( in regards to Williams ability to go where he wants)
    Richard Seymour ( in regards to Williams being way more fluid and quick)

    I'm a big fan of the way this guy presents his material. If only the video quality was better I'd watch every single player he does. At this point you have to watch so closely to see the details of what they're talking about I only have the patience for the players I'm really really interested in.

    You can see LW is a true 'Blue Chip' prospect. On top of everything I like how he's so light on his feat. He never gets tangled up, and always sheds guys going low on him.

    I like the Smith stuff even more because LW is such an obvious 'Blue Chipper' and the Smith stuff sheds some light on why he was picked

    Spent 2 hours watching these video's last night. Wow! Thank You!! Very insightful.

    If these guys are half as good as these guys claim they are, we got ourselves a lethal combo on Offense and Defense.

    Yeah. He's screen capturing his Google+ session with the guest and also streaming video at the same time.

    It really made the video choppy.

    They mention Williams best game according to scout was Arizona. I am going to watch the clips now.
