A few of them will. Don't think all. Either way, what's your point? What does that have to do with college? All of those guys were major contributers at the college level, most were all conference, and a few were multiple year All-American. We're talking about COLLEGE recruiting. VY's going to be a bust in the NFL. Same with Reggie Bush. You wouldn't take them in college, though?

Per Scout, Youbody and Gholston were 3 stars and Mangold wasn't even ranked, I don't think. And also per Scout, SH was a 4 star.

I hate the U, but they have had alot of sucess with low ranked guys.
1. Warren Sapp was a 2 star TE out of high school all pro DT.
2. Sean Taylor was a 2 star LB out of high school and was an all pro safety before his tragic death.
3. Ed Reed was either a 2 or 3 coming out of high school, and now an all pro safety.
4. Willis McGahee, Clinton Portis, and Frank Gore was not 4 or 5 star guys either.

More often than not, they get it right.
It is kinda interesting to think about the the low rated guys that end up as studs and the high rated guys that are busts though.
