Last years HS class was thought to be pretty weak in terms of overall talent. Pryor got hyped because he dragged out the process so long. Julio really should have been the #1 player.

09 class>08 class in terms of overall talent

And it is true that TP was more hyped coming out of HS than Lebron

lebron had a $7M offer to forgo his final year of high school in order to play overseas (italy i think)

lebron had high school games on ESPN, as a Junior

lebron made the cover of SI being touted as the #1 overall pick, as a Junior

i didnt read this whole topic, but his arm is just as good as Vince Youngs.


And Vick has one of the best arms in the history of the NFL. Pryor doesnt compare.

I think two things:

1. He has been so overhyped people expect much more from him in passing situations than he can give right now.

2. His footwork was so terrible last night it magnified had bad it looked, but its not actually that bad.

I think he will be a terrific college QB, but I really dont know what his NFL future holds at this point. I think its all with the mechanics and his mentality.

He can always switch to WR. With that size and speed, he'll have GMs salivating like with Matt Jones
