Glad everyone is happy with the initial post. 
To answer a few questions I have seen throughout the thread:
1) The 2010 class filled up so fast that we weren't able to make evaluations quick enough. It slowly just faded away and I will take some of the responsibility for that happening. Hopefully the TD Top 20 will start the 2011 evaluations off with a bang.
2) OBUDan, I meant that line to say that Jarvis does not run a 4.4. I wanted to designate what I considered "elite" speed, so I put a number next to it. I'll try to make it clearer for others.
3) Hilliard probably runs a little better than a 4.86 now, since those numbers aren't always as accurate as they could be. I would imagine he is in the 4.7-4.75 range, which still isn't fast by any means, but its acceptable for someone with his skill set. He is a power back that makes excellent cuts and displays good vision. His agility makes up for his straight line speed.
4) La'el Collins or Anthony Johnson could make a push for #1 overall. I doubt that Rivals/Scout will put Collins at #1 overall since Henderson is an OT rated #1 overall in the 2010 class. Johnson has the freakish ability to where he could be. I expect both of them to be top 10 locks.
If I missed your question, then let me know! I'll try to address any questions from the board. If anyone has some complaints, then make sure to voice them as well.
Hopefully this helps!

Collins looks like Marlon Favorite.

You're the man, lynx. My jaw definitely dropped a couple of times during the Landry video. Absolutely amazing.

Great Job. Landry reminds me of how Early Doucet looked in high school. Early was a little bigger, but he was also a Senior.

Great stuff Lynx. Looking forward to seeing more.

Wow...I was most impressed with Collins and Landry! Collins is one hell of an athlete and he looked faster than his 40 time although 40 time isnt that important for an OL IMO. And what impressed me most about Landry is he seems to play with a mean streak...for a WR that is pretty rare!

After watching Kenny Hilliard over the past three years, I can assure you that his speed is certainly deceiving-Ask the Parkview players how quick Hilliard is. Another interesting note about Kenny is the fact that he reminds me of Hester when he was at Evangel-Kenny was the starting punter, starting running back, played linebacker from time to time, and against Parkview caught a TD pass, rushed for a TD, punted for a 40+ yd average, and had two great 20-30 yd. passes that were dropped.
I cannot wait to have him in P&G and I think it is a testament to the talent in LA for 2011 to have Kenny as the 5th ranked player. Geaux Tigers.

Concise and informative. Not to mention great use of the blog format to include the videos... Keeps all of us [literally] on the same page.
Look forward to seeing more of the list!

FYI Rasco is not 227 lbs. He is 245.

Well done, Lynx.

Oh, don't you worry, they'll figure out something. However, no way your great work could be diminished by those Ranters who have made it an art-form to criticizing anything. Then, left to their own devices, they eat their own.
Once again, many thanks.

I have never seen anyone do this. What a great job! Thanks for your time and effort.

Lynx, great stuff!
I would have Freak #1, but it's very close. IMO Johnson may be the best prosect from this state in the last 5 years. Watching that film from the Combine, that kid is incredible.
I'm not sure I'd have Rasco that high. I've seen him about 3 times this year on TV or game highlights, and he just hasn't had a ton of production. So I'd probably put Landry over him.

I think it is a draw between the two. Comparing two top 10 national prospects = no real difference. Splitting hairs at that point. I gave La'el the nod due to the Rivals comments about him being the best prospect they have seen this year regardless of class or position.

I put Rasco at #3 because his ceiling is endless. As a highschool prospect I think Landry is better, but Rasco could be the next big thing at DE as his game rises at the college level.
