Wide Right put out their top 50 last year. Troy Davis was their pick as would be mine.

It'll be funny to see how this changes in the next couple of years. Purdy and Hall are for sure top 10 players, maybe even Rose.Wide Right put out their top 50 last year. Troy Davis was their pick as would be mine.

They have Knott and Klien at 15 and 12. I haven't compared stats, but I have a hard time placing Rose in front of either of those guys... at least right now. They have Bailey at 42 and imagine he will climb. Could see Eisworth making this list. Charlie Kolar is arguably our best TE ever, not sure where you place TEs.
Rose is better than Knott and Klein IMO. He came in and started as a true freshman on a good team. Those two just played special teams IIRC
By this logic Manziel and Tebow were awful college players.
we are talking about collegiate players in college. What happens when they graduate or leave is of absolutely zero consequence to how they play in college.
Maybe I look at my Iowa State fandom differently than others, but I would rather have excellent Iowa State teams than worry about how that player may or may not perform in a professional sports league where they're an employee.
Not seeing Matt Blair even in their top five showed me this list was totally worthless.Wide Right put out their top 50 last year. Troy Davis was their pick as would be mine.

Made by people that started watching in the McCarney years for sure.
He was a really good college WR, but I think it says something about the WR talent when a guy that was 6’0” and appears to hold his schools 100m record at 11.53 become the clear cut #1 WR.
You seem to think that Purdy won't have as good a NFL career as Seneca did, huh? Why?
I would think the NFL would be drooling over Purdy's numbers though, and wouldn't look to kindly on Seneca's INT's in college? Does the NFL look at things besides numbers and wins?
Oh wait.... the NFL wants a prototypical certain sized QB and Purdy doesn't fit that bill. Oops..... neither did Seneca.
Absolutely. That is a major difference/impact to the game. How we decide a national championship in college football (BCS) is not on the same scale. It's not even close.
Hopefully Purdy will have an opportunity to play a bit more. I remember watching Seattle just hoping Hassleback would go down so that we could get a glimpse of Seneca. Unfortunately for us he wasn't injured very often.
You don't get to counter an argument I never made. It's pretty clear I don't care at all about NFL production. We need to take NFL production or potential production out of this. Period.
Seneca was on teams he made competitive that would have been bad without him. Bad QBs don't cash NFL checks for a decade. He didn't stick in the nfl because of his running, it was his elite arm.
