Just remember players like Justin Jefferson and Tyran Mathieu, who were both rated as 3 stars or less. It happens every year. I trust our staff's evaluation of these players


You forgot Jacob Hester.

So that's what, 3 in 20 years? Screw it, let's jsut sign 3 stars now.

Or maybe just understand that a top 5 class is special and a good thing to shoot for. At the same time understand that 1-5 are about the same. And then 5-15 or even 20 are probably about the same as well. And even then the compilation of the last 2-3 classes tells you more than any individual class does. Specifically, what places you are filling with elite talent or coachable near-elite talent to properly fill a roster?

Recruiting and roster management can mean a class that looks less productive may be a better haul toward getting your team over the hump.

This class has what 9 3 stars? Nobody said we should sign all 3 stars, and we didn't do that this season.

It’s probably closer to 80 in 20 years. Mo Claiborne, Lloyd Cushenberry, Damien Lewis, Debo Jones, Duke Riley, there have been tons of three stars and low four stars who have become great. Wasn’t Clyde a three?
