He was great in college but I don't see him being able to mirror that same level of success in the NFL.

12 years and 8 teams in college is hard to top in the NFL.
Haskins

I'm all for opinions and such, but I just don't understand why some people keep calling Haskins overrated..

He's literally the only FBS player in the 21st century to throw for 50+ TDs, 70%+ completion rating and less than 10 INTs in a season.. How could somebody not want that guy, or think he's overrated? lol

Not so much "overrated" as you clearly showed he has ridiculous stats.

I just have a strong gut feeling he'll end up a bust.

Agree, its "stats".  He had 3 of the fastest players in college football where he threw quick slants to where most corners or even players period in college isnt as fast as Dixon, McLaurin, and Campbell.  Urban has a great scheme to get those players the ball quick to where it really inflated his stats. He proably wont have the luxury to throw those quick slants where all his recievers will be faster than the corners in the pros like he did with those guys, not to mention his numbers werent very good under pressure and im sure he will see a lot more of that than what he seen in college.  Also is deep ball wasnt very good so defenses will crowd the box and blitz him to take away the quick slant

That 48 TD 5 INT 71 comp% season by Case Keenum was a great season too. Stats dont tell the whole story

Id be good with Haskins, just not in the first. I think he would be good value in the 2nd or 3rd
This kinda tells you a little about Haskins

WR Hakeem Butler

This dude is seemingly shooting up draft boards, possibly destined to be a first round pick. A few months ago when I first started doing draft research he was being talked about 3rd/4th round at most, and he makes sense at that point, but anywhere near the first and I am well out.

Like most, my first impression of this dude was wow. Watch some highlights and see a guy with the wingspan of a pterodactyl just dominating out there, like Lebron on grass. But the more you actually watch tape on the guy, the more you see a guy that struggles with drops and lack of concentration. Simply put, I don't think he is a technician when it comes to the craft of being a WR, and I think his pro career will go the same way as a whole bunch of other big guys that never really felt the need to learn their craft. This opinion was re-enforced when I watched him doing the drills at the combine, to me he looked sloppy, both in technique and attitude. Obviously I could be wrong, but I just suspect his pro career will never amount to much and he'll have a rude awakening when he starts playing against a higher calibre player.

Who's your draft busts this year?

Guess I wasn't alone in this take
