Solid list, thanks for taking to time to share. Seems more an more people are believers that cooks taken over the top spot at rb, if not closed the gap on fournette....

Nice list, gallman's placement was most surprising to me, how do you assess his game?

Sony Michel also announced this week he's returning for another year at Georgia

Add Freeman to the list...RBs scared to enter with Cook, Fournette, and Toby Gerhart I guess...

I really struggle to see anything super special from Foreman. I suppose if he has a historically good combine, like D. Henry, then I could envision him as a future star RB. But when I watch him, I see a mixture of Blount, Ingram, & Jeremy Hill, and that's not what I expect from a RB people seem to be ga-ga over

second time I 1000% agree with you lol. I rather have McCaffery or Gallman over Foreman all day

Also Kaaya is horrible. He should really return for his senior year and continue to work with Mark Richt.

Couldn't help but notice no Mixon, I think he's top half of first round easy. Wondering if he's left off because of obvious off field issues.

Do we really see Mccaffrey as a Toby G clone? I know we use humor here but, while I don't love him as an NFL prospect, is t he more talented than Gerhart? Just for discussion's sake?

Plus Butt coming off that injury. Butt was in some pain.
