Possibly 98. Not sure but Larry Johnson, Bryant Johnson, Michael Haynes and Jimmy Kennedy all could have been in that class as well as Bryan Scott who was a second round pick if memory serves.
94 team had collins, kijana, engram, brady, hartings, johnson, not sure of their recruiting year

Well, given some of the other QBs that been picked in the first round as of late, why not. Starting with Tim "the most over-rated player in college football history" Tebow. All it takes is one. I would take him over Stroud or Young but wouldn't draft any of these guys in the top 30.
Many want to compare him to Josh Allen based on size and hard running, but I’ve watched Allen play and his pocket presence is amazing. He almost always seems to know when to step out of the way and avoid sacks. Levis lacks that completely and often runs into sacks. I don’t see him having much success in the NFL, but I could be wrong.
When I watched his games every announcer drooled over his quick release.
Yeah, it's plainly obvious that you are praying for Will to fail, as evidenced by your incessant need to chime in and take a cheapshot at him anytime someone dares to post his name. How many #1 practice reps did he get over the span of his career? How many different coordinators did he have?
My incessant need? I thought this was a message board. I guess only people who agree with you are allowed to post. None of us know how many #1 practice reps he got and here’s a news flash for you, #1 practice reps are earned and he obviously wasn’t good enough to earn them while at Penn State. He got plenty at Kentucky and he still wasn’t very good, so there’s that.
The biggest issue he had here is that is not an RPO type QB. He just didn’t fit our offensive system. KU was a great move for him as he fit their system perfectly…….and they had the same colors so he didn’t have to buy a whole new wardrobe😉
I'll help you out a little:
He wasn’t going to get drafted at all if he stayed at Penn State. Backups that almost never play, especially ones that sit behind a guy that will either be a late round pick or not drafted at all, don’t get drafted.
So was Ryan Leaf…how’d that work out? So it was the coordinators’ fault? How about in high school because he wasn’t really heavily recruited either. The guy who was allegedly better than him had better stats, so yes, he was better. How they did in college is what matters, not potential in the NFL. Even if Levis goes on to become a Hall of Famer in the NFL, that doesn’t make his college results any better.
Same here. Watched several of his games. He looked pretty good in some, not so on others. Didn’t look like a 1st rounder to me but announcers loved his arm strength, accuracy on the move and mostly drooled over his quick release.
Yeah, and they put up basically the same stats over the last two years as well.....Levis draft status is based all upon projection based upon traits. It's a complete gamble, and very rarely works in the NFL. Usually, the pros look at great production, and then look at the traits to see if they will translate to the NFL.
Yep, and they made a projection on Lance like others are doing with Levis. Granted, Levis has at least played P5 football. Hated the Niners trade at the time to draft him as well.
