There is a lot of talk about who is overrated. Williams. Beasley. Fowler. Everyone?
But who are the prospects you think are being underrated?
My top one is Devante Parker. I think he is a better prospect than Kevin White. I would even be tempted to take him over Amari Cooper.
Parker has the size. 6'3 210 pounds. Check that box.
Parker has the strength. Only did two less reps on the bench press than Dante Fowler.
He has the speed. Ran a 4.4 40 at the combine.
He has great hands too.
And he was ultra productive his entire career at Louisville.
He put up big numbers with Bridgewater his sophomore and junior year.
And then came back last year after a foot injury and put up big numbers again with mediocre quarterbacks.
In only 7 games last season, he had 43 catches for 855 yards. Against FSU, he was dominant. 8 catches for 214 yards mostly against PJ Williams, a guy who viewed as a potential first round pick.
I fully agree that I would put Parker over White.
Staying in the WR vein: Jaelen Strong. Almost nobody talks about him with guys like Cooper and White, but he is a very solid 1st round receiver.
I agree about Parker, he is a stud.
My pick is Duke Johnson, I think he is the 3rd best RB in this class behind Gurley and Gordon. If he is put in the right system and isn't asked to be a 25 carry a game player, he can be a playmaker. He runs extremely hard, has elite vision, can make people miss, and enough speed to break long runs.

And yet he is just about the only RB (other than Tevin Coleman) that we haven't invited in for a visit...
Tyler lockett
Grady jarrett
Anthony Chickillo
One is Parker and my other is a guy who was once overrated, Shane Ray
Shaq Thompson is another who at this point I think is underrated
Another Miami guy that is underrated is Denzel Perryman. All this man does it make tackles. He is excellent in reading plays and shooting the gaps into the backfield. Whatever team ends up with him is going to be very very happy down the road.
the board is probably sick of me saying this but im gonna throw it out there anyway, bernardrick mckinney.

I agree with this
If we're going to draft a MLB, I'd rather go for McKinney (and not Perryman). Jeremiah George is a poor man's Denzel Perryman.

A very, very poor man's.

George was a 5th round pick a very very deep draft last year.
He may have some upside, you never know.
I too would say Jarrett. He should go top 20.
Bud Dupree. Incredible athlete and the best LEO prospect in the class (maybe Beasley beats him). Kentucky had no clue how to use him which led to him having games where he was inconsistent. Top 5 pick in my opinion

Maybe not top 20 but definitely first round. He pops up so many times when watching Beasley. Very good player.
- David Johnson is Matt Forte 2.0
- Randy Gregory has the highest upside and is a potential all pro, but pissing hot at the combine has really pushed his stock down, if he's there in the 2nd I think the Jags have no choice but to roll the dice regardless of who they select at 3.

Bobby Richardson. Big time.
