Is Nick Fairley in the same league as Ndamukong Suh?

[WesternKyVol]

What will you say if Fairley is drafted with one of the top 2 picks?

"Good pick."

That has no impact whatsoever on which one of the two is better.

It won't. Where he is drafted has no bearing on how he compares to Suh, who is the better player.

But it gauges the caliber of player.

But it gauges the caliber of player.

Only if you assume that every draft class is equal AND there are no quantum leaps between talent levels in picks

 

[tvolsfan]

Fairley was great, but I also feel like he stands out more because the rest of his defense is trash.

 

[DarthVisor]

But it gauges the caliber of player.

Absolutely not.

So Ryan Leaf is as good a QB as Phillip Rivers? Interesting.....

Collegiately?

Suh is a much better player. Dominant! Fairley was not even blocked on many plays last nite. Oregon made him look real good. I would take Suh over Fairley any day.

Not automatic.
What if Fairley gets drafted by an NFC west team?

 

[milohimself]

If you're talking about league, then I'd say yes. I'd put him up there with Suh and McCoy last year.

Suh is definitely better though, both prospect wise and collegiately. But I have no problem putting him in that elite DT level that Dorsey, Suh, and McCoy were in. As long as it's understood that Suh is the best of the bunch and that's not debateable.

 

[volberry]

No. Suh is almost unblockable. Fairley is good but that Or oline is like 200 lbs.

 

[NashVol11]

Collegiately?

Does it matter which level? If Suh is "only better in the NFL" then he's still better...

 

[GahLee]

Collegiately?

You basically said that if Fairley is drafted in the top two that puts him in Suh's league. I'm pointing out that draft position doesn't matter.

I'm telling you, this guy is Dan Wilkinson.

 

[VolinArizona]

Suh is better, its not debateable, but Fairley will have a good career. Suh should have won the Heisman, imo

 

[volger]

Not a Suh, he is good though. Suh is a man beast, Fairley is a wanna beast.

 

[DocVOLiday]

No way. And id much rather be on a team with suh than fairley

Fairley will have more fines than James Harrison.

Fairley will not get away with his BS in the league. They'll kill him.

Because everyone plays nice in the NFL. :good!:

Let's see what happens after he sacks Tom Brady and grinds his facemask into the ground.:thumbsup:

Nobody can touch Tom Brady, we all know that. However if he ever "shoves" Jamaal Charles helmet into the ground, I doubt we'll hear too much crying about it.
