I love Lewis Neal, but that guy is smoking crack putting him in the Top 15 overall




coming off an 8 sack year as a 1st year starter is pretty impressive.

If he builds off of that and runs well i dont see why he cant be a high pick

You can point to his size and lack of consistent productions last season as reasons why he isn't an early rounder at this point.

I agree that if he can show more consistent production, particularly against the top competition, combined with good combine numbers he'll garner some more attention. But size-wise he's a tweener.

I can - Measureables, it means everything that high up in the draft. Production just gets you noticed, if you dont project well to the NFL, you arent going in the Top 15

I'm pretty sure we're in agreement so I'm not sure what that list is supposed to prove. I'll assume that if you didn't list the round they were drafted it means they didn't go 1st or 2nd, and that's half the list.

I'd also venture to say those that did go in the first two rounds put up great sack totals and 40 times at the combine, confirming that Neal will need to have a better season next year than last, and put up good combine numbers.
