He doesn't have pocket prescence because he could never stay in the pocket. He was always being smacked around. My list is J. williams- big corners scare me shitless, they may not have the athletecism V. Young Kiwi- he's just overrated
What a stupid analysis!!! Reggie Bush is a once in a decade player. I never stated Reggie Bush was chopliver cause he played at USC. My point was, White has received so much attention due to the success of USC and Reggie Bush. White is a good player, but way overvalued as an early to mid 1st Rd pick. Some posters on this site had Lendale going to the Jets with the 4th pick.............insane. White has problems controling his weight, and at best , IMO worth an early second round pick. People declaring Lendale as an early first rd pick....know nothing about evaulating players. If White continues to put on some weight in the NFL, which I anticipate he will, he will totally lose his effectiveness, and have no stamina.....not something an NFL team would want with a 1st rd pick RB (That's why, I think he will be a 1st rd Bust). A GM in the NFL using a 1st rd selection on a RB wants a 4 down player, that can play the entire game....ala DeAngelo Williams. White would be a very good second rd pick....but a bust as a first rd selection. Lendalle White is not worth a first rd pick, but some GM will select him in Rd 1. As I stated earlier, 1st rd backs should become your franchise back.....it ain't happening with White.
Care to elaborate? Bunkley has solid measureables and a neverending motor. Tye Hill, IMO, has the best cover skills in the draft. I only think he'll bust if teams waste his talent and put him into complicated zone systems. Man to man cover guy, not a zone guy.
Not that I think he will be a bust, but I think that it's funny how everybody claims that Bush won't be able to carry the load in the NFL because he never had to do it at USC but nobody has that concern about Lendale White. It is definately worth stating that he played behind the best runningback and the best offensive line in college football. But I digress; 1. Vernon Davis: Will be a good weapon for a passing offense. Will not be a good blocker and will not live up to workout numbers. 2. Laurence Maroney: Aided by quick turf in Minny, not a quality starting back in the NFL. 3. Jimmy Williams: Additude problems up the ying-yang, will never be more than a marginal starter and distraction.
Vince Young... did he hit one WR on the run in that Rose Bowl game and I guess since Vince Young's value is so high based on what he did against USC. In that case Paul Pinegar, the Hawaii QB, Sam Keller and Brady Qunn should all be top 5 picks because they lit up USC's defense too.... I'm also on board with the Jmmy Williams being a bust I'll throw in D'brick, not because I don't think he can play because I think he can. It's just that aside from Orlando Pace I can't think of an OL taken in the top 5 that has shown he was worth the pick.
