re: Is Reuben Randle the best player on our team?

great stats....but, Miles and staff have this team playing at such a high level that it, IMHO, is impossible to try and choose one above all. case in point....what about the two guys who dropped the ball into Randle's hands while he was in full stride? just sayin.

Which DL will get picked before him?

Just think how good he could be if he didn't drop easy touchdown passes

Randle has been awesome but there are really no good WRs in the Sec outside of Jeffrey

I'd say debatable, but I think Claiborne is definitely a first rounder. Mathieu would be if he were three inches taller, and may be still.

Randle's done well, but I don't know that he'll get picked up in the first round.

I think Randle's value to this team is greater than the defensive players named. How any will fare in the NFL is impossible to forecast.

Maybe best should be refined into most valuable and most talented. Depends on which one we are talking about.

I think Maryland is the best player. Took all the pressure off our O.

He might have been the best player on O last year, but in a shite offensive system.
Quite often you see a struggling player swap systems and just blow the frick up.

All hail the Terrapin.

Agreed. I think that's always a point of confusion or ambiguity. I asked yesterday whether LSU would be the "best" team in the BCS era if we won out the way we've played so far--even better than Miami 01"--and posters were quick to note that that team had unbelievable NFL talent. In that post, I meant the best and most dominant product on the field (as a unit), but had to concede.

I think RR (and Lee and Ware, for that matter) are more important to the team, individually, than almost any defensive player. But I don't believe that, by position and potential draft status, they compare to at least a few of the guys on the D. We'll see. I honestly think that ODB Jr. is more talented and will be better by the time he's a junior.

But Reuben is the man and I hope he goes on to do well.

Am with you on this. I love watching him play, he combines raw talent with textbook smoothness and capable speed. No one is going to agree on this topic but he is as hard to replace (if injured) as anyone on the team.

Lee stepping in for Sheppard??

That was if he came out as a junior. I see him as an early 2nd with potential to go in the 1st as a sr.

Mainly because WR's are risky #1 picks that teams are starting to go away from like RBs. There are generally only around 4 WRs taken 5 in big year for WR in the 1st round. If he comes out in 2012 then there are too many higher rated WRs on the board.

He wont be rated higher than Jeffery, Blackmon or Floyd. And then there is Jones,Broyles that will probably grade out higher. RR would do better by waiting a year.
