For Some, a salve to the offseason - Athlon's 2017 Pro Preview Is Out

#18

WR-Allen Robinson does not rank among the top 15 #1 WRs, nor does Hurns rank among the top 15 #2 WRs.  However, Marqise Lee is rated as the 5th best #3 WR.
...
Lindy's ranks Dante Fowler...yes him,,,as the 10th best 4-3 LDE, but strangely, they rank Calais Campbell as the best right side 4-3 DE.  J.J. Watt and Jadeveon Clowney rank 1-2 among 3-4 DEs, and the Texans rank as the best DL in the AFC.

Poz makes the top 10 4-3 Sams, while Telvin Smith is unranked among the 4-3 wills.  Myles Jack, despite playing very little last year, made 10th best 4-3 Mike.
...
Under the heading of "Numero Uno CBs, A.J. Bouye ranks as the 13th overall CB, while Jalen Ramsey ranks as the 7th best #2 CB.

The above bits just reek of poor research by the analyst.
The glaring inaccuracies to me include:

- In the most conventional sense, Lee was the #2 WR in 2016, not the #3. Seems very odd to list him there.

- Snubbing Telvin in the 4-3 WLB category is a head-scratcher.  Are there 10 weak side LBs playing in a 4-3 in the NFL that are better than Telvin?

- The DL stuff definitely means someone didn't do his homework.

- Ramsey listed as a #2 is comically inaccurate.
