Very comparable. I'd take a guy that compares favorable to the obvious #1 pick all day. Just sayin'.



That doesn't guarantee success.

The top chart is percentages. Total games wouldn't change that.



First off, you are right and wrong. Yes, they are percentages. That is the only thing you are right about.

These percentages are based off total numbers, which are not taking into account how many games played. Read the damn chart dude. PERCENT OF CAREER PRODUCTION (ie total number of sacks/pressures/hurries).

Garrett got 32% of his sacks in SEC play. Well, had he played in the 3 SEC games that he missed, he surely would have more sacks/pressures/hits, which would bring that 32% number up.


And again, context comes into play. Why are Barnett's sacks vs Kentucky more impressive then Garrett's OOC sacks vs UCLA, Louisville, or AZ State?

I'll take away 5 sacks from Barnett's SEC play to make up for the 5 more total games he's played.

Barnett still has 25 SEC games sacks to Garrett's 10.

And that's skewing thing in Garrett's favor. Explain that away.
