    FUCK ANYONE who chose Oregon over UW, even if they suck (Throckmorton, Mario Lemieux). The gap between Gaskin & Adams to #3 is bigger than the gap between @CoachJNansen_SC’s well-worn DSLs.

    I actually think Trey is 1 and Gaskin is 2 on talent but Gaskin gets the nod on durability.

    Maybe on NFL potential but not by any other standard.

    Wasnt certain who to go #1 but Gaskin's durability and game in and out competitiveness sealed it for me. If I was looking at it via NFL potential Trey is an easy #1.

    11-14 NGAF I surely do not.

    I said at the tim that Myles Gaskin was far and away the top recruit in the state. I said it a lot!

    I also said he'd turn out to be one of the top RBs in UW history. I said that too.

    You're welcome.

    I think Gaskin will be a starter in the NFL for multiple years.

    I think Gaskin will be a starter in the NFL for multiple years.

    Gaskins is fucking phenomenal but NFL coaches will always be hesitant to give him a chance because he doesn't have the faggy underwear olympics numbers with size, speed, strength, quickness, or pass catching ability they like to check boxes on.

    NFL coaches are idiots and would rather take a chance of Dwayne Washington or Louis Rankin

    He is amazing vision and perfect balance but he is going to have a unnecessary bullshit uphill battle to really get a chance of ever starting for an NFL roster.

    True.

    See Philip Lindsay. 5'8" 190. 4.38 40 yr dash. 4 year starter.

    UDFA.

    You have Benning way too low, especially with how good he’s looked this season.

    Myles said he got a 4th rd grade from the NFL. I always thought Lindsey was talented and would get drafted. That gap in their draft grades is insane me.

    I was really hoping Benning would get a pass rush figured out, but he is great at stopping the run and at collapsing the pocket.

    Thank you Mr. Potoa'e....Seriously though he was hard for me to rank. I wanted to put him higher but this is the first year he has consistently played and has been serviceable but not dominant. He has made some nice plays and flashes here and there but he hasnt been overly consistent to me.

    That re ranking had Rypien too high man are u serious? That guy has been the same since his first season. Even the Boise fans aren't tripping on him.

    Nice post tho, I always enjoy these.
