Stats aren't as important as traits. 31/32 teams are kicking themselves for never giving Antonio Gates a chance.

That said, I haven't seen too much of Campbell so I can't say. But the same thing was said at times about OJ Howard last year. Dude's a future stud despite shit college production. Especially with OSU being more of a running based team anyway.

Ya but still. He had 12 catches all of last year and 31 this year with 2 touchdowns. Theres just not enough tape for me to see enough traits. Unless he blows up the combine and explodes on the scene the rest of the year.

Either way, I think it would benifit him to stay one more year. If hes as talented as OSU hypes him up to be then he should bet on himself and return for another year and improve his draft stock. Could end up making him more money. Cause right now hes a day 3 pick for me
 
I honestly cant make a top 5. Or even a top 10. The reason being that there are just way too many 6'4-6'5 guys in this class. Lets name them out (Drafttek rankings)

remember these are only the big guys

1. Equanimeous St Brown
Notre Dame 6'5" 204
2. Courtland Sutton SMU 6'4"225
3. Auden Tate Florida State 6'5" 225
4. Jaylen Smith Louisville 6'4" 210
5. Simmie Cobbs Jr. Indiana 6'4" 220
6. David Sills West Virginia 6'4" 203
7. Allen Lazard Iowa State 6'5" 223

And they forgot Marcell Ateman who's 6'4 216

Am I missing anyone?
 
Does James Washington kinda look like a running back playing wide reciever? And im not talking about him wearing #28, im talking body type
 
James washington major: Agribusiness major with an option in farm and ranch management.

Country boy. Lol i like it. He says he wants to own a farm one day.
 
Man, Ridley in 2015 had very, very good tape. Made me realize how much Hurts hurts his stock (pun intended).

He doesn't. Everybody sees elite WR in Ridley, regardless of who's (or isn't) throwing to him.

If, like me, you hadn't seen in 2015 what he's capable of, the way he's used in the 2017 Bama offense suggest that he has a pretty limited skillset, which I see he obviously doesn't have. Hurts doesn't really ask him to be anything more than a guy who can get separation, and if Ridley doesn't he'll just run. Cocker asked much more of him, most notably to dominate at the catch point.

That's not exactly accurate measure of a prospect's stock. The only people who matter, NFL scouts, definitely watched him his freshman year. They know everything about Ridley and what he's capable of.
Besides, last two seasons he showed enough with Hurts, too.

All I'm saying is if he was used as more than a deep threat he'd have production to back up the traits and route running, which inevitably translates to higher draft position, whether you agree with the logic or not.

Ya he was the most polished fresman ive ever seen. Granted he was 21 but he made big play after big play in the biggest of games with no college experience. Thats what impressed me.
