Anybody else besides me starting to think that these rankings they give players are a little misleading? Because theres always those top recruits that don't perform then you have guys that are poorly rated that perform like their allstars. For example Dion Lewis(Pittsburgh RB) was rated #81 running back in the nation last year according to espn.

As I've said before, it's easy to pick a guy out of a crowd and say "Well, he wasn't a top rated player and look what he did!"

What you have to realize is the ranking system isn't a science.....it's just opinion-based. But if you want proof that scouting/rating system works, look at high school basketball recruiting. It's alot more rare for lower-ranked players to show up on NBA draft boards.

Football is just harder to judge. You've got to judge a guy as based on the talent he plays against. For the most part, you look at certain areas due to higher-quality players and therefore more competition to judge the recruit on. There's always going to be a kid that gets overlooked.

A 5* bust is more the exception than the rule. For every Chris Donald (5*), there are 10 Josh Hawkins' (3*). I mean, if Robert Nelson gets drafted you'd say "See he wasn't highly ranked".... but he won't get drafted. And that's the rule. There's always exceptions, but don't use selective information.

(Sorry for calling out players' names... just giving an idea)
