Calvin Johnson declared for the draft. I think it's easier to just keep all the discussion in one thread for all the players declaring. This one was a no-brainer. I think he goes to Tampa Bay at 4.

Link lists DT Alan Branch as undecided; He has not signed up for any classes next semester so likely he will go pro. He should be a top 15 pick.

Is it just me, or do WRs taken high in the first have a tendency to bust more often than other positions?
Edit: Charles Rogers has to be in the top 10 of all-time busts. |

[/ QUOTE ] has anyone done a study (public, anyway) of this, like the one that was done to study the success rate of high school pitchers vs college pitchers vs college position players etc that was in Baseball Between the Numbers? slightly related note, Bob Kraft was quoted this weekend as saying that the highest draft picks were financially unfeasible. The sweet spot to be in is the middle to late first round. it makes sense - I know I've read some stuff that says the #20 pick as as likely (or near likely) to succeed as the #10, but it paid a whole lot less. |

[/ QUOTE ] Dunno, but the sample size is so small(high 1st round WRs), that we prob. can't do a meaningful analysis of the data. From 2000-2005, 7/10 of top 10 WRs were "busts"(I'm not giving a strict definition). From 1982-1999, 6/14 of top 10 WRs were busts. Someone would have to compare these numbers to other positions. |
