Better prospect coming out of college? (1 Viewer)

[JAA]

Trades were made for Eli and Mike and Reggie is being touted as the best player out of college in years. I dont understand why he wasnt traded for like Eli and Mike.

I need someone to explain to me how Reggie can be a better NFL prospect than Mike and Eli when no one traded for him.

I think Reggie has the higher celing. Now just because a prospect wasn't traded for doesn't mean that they can't be a good player. I think that NO valued Bush so much that no team was willing to meet it.

I don't belive Peyton Manning was traded on draft day either, doesn't mean he isn't a good player.

Wouldn't the fact that Peyton, among others, wasn't traded mean more than the fact that the #1 team gave up the player?

I voted for Eli out of these 3. Reggie isn't even the best prospect this year.

QB vs RB.

QB = more value at the pick.

Rb not as much.

COnsidering he wasnt taken #1, and then not traded for, how could he be the best prospect?

Eli doesn't belong in this conversation

In this draft?? no he wasn't the best prospect. I think Houston did the right thing football wise. (Ticket, and business sense?? No Bush was the best choice, but that is neither here nor there.) But Mario Williams was not an option in your question. You asked who was the best prospect, Vick, Eli, or Bush. I think it is Bush.I only brought up Peyton, to address your thought of "he wasn't traded for" that draft day trades, don't translate to NFL success.

your point?I'm saying the fact that Indy refused to trade the pick means a lot.
