A guy with the name Duce Chestnut has to have a 99 rating on name only.

I’ve seen some shitty players named all conference. That’s no comment on Omar, just pointing out that the media counts tackles and interceptions to evaluate linebackers.

For those old enough to remember, the Saints Johnny Poe was All Pro one year on the strength of about five interceptions of overthrown passes. He was a below average corner.

Aaron Anderson and Deuce Chestnut seem low. But whatever they are here now and can make a good contribution/impact on our team next season and going forward.

Excited to see a Punt/Kick Returner make a significant impact consistently since Tyrann Mathieu/Odell...we had some good returns from Tre White and DJ Chark but it wasn't consistent.

Anderson seems incredibly low. His high school film is great. I read that he was running with the 1s at bama in the spring until he tore his mcl. Dude is going to be a beast.

I think he potentially could single handedly make our Special Teams elite.

That rating seems off to me. It's difficult to project a player jumping to next level so ranking him over an all-conference CB seems kinda silly to me. 2 years at that while his sophomore year teams tried to avoid him more.

I would have Chestnut, Speights, and Ovie all about +3 and Alexander about -3. The others seem right.

I'd personally have Chestnut and Speights around a 93, but everything else seems good.

He is going to make the receiver group elite.

Anderson is the real deal. I can't wait to see him on screens and crossing routes. Huge pickup.

Yep. They appear to be making up for not even giving him a score out of HS.
Buuuut - I hope he's a freaking All American.

Man, every time I see his name I am reminded of:

Ogie Ogilthorpe

Sorry - carry on!

If those two are really the 3rd and 4th worst in our portal class. That's a hell of a haul.
