Which 1st round rookies do you think WILL NOT get A potential?

Which 2nd-7th round rookies do you think WILL get A potential?

Re: Rookie potentials

PastaPadre had ratings up via Madden Ultimate team for a bunch of first round guys. Most seem too high.

Re: Rookie potentials

I saw a few of the screen shots of ratings on his instagram, just no potentials. I can't get Madden Online to see anything there.

Re: Rookie potentials

I'd guess every 1st round pick will have A potential, other than that, probably some who are perceived as high-upside players like Stephen Hill.

Personally, I hope Chris Polk becomes this year's Noel Devine as a high potential UDFA running back.

Re: Rookie potentials

He signed with the Eagles pretty much immediately after the draft was over.

I doubt it.

They aren't going to look at anything except the fact that he was drafted 15th overall (obviously they'll look at other things, but with the way they do ratings anymore, I'm shocked they get anything right).

Re: Rookie potentials

Their low overalls will make fantasy draft even easier than it was in the past. My biggest peeve of all of these has to be that they gave Luck better arm strength than Ryan Tannehill. Luck is obviously the better prospect, but Tannehill has 3 things on him: pocket presence, feet in the pocket, and natural running ability. They should have at least given him that much before giving him surprisingly low potential.

Re: Rookie potentials

You people realize alot of teams had Bruce Irvin in their top 15 prospects. He has 23.5 sacks in 2 years at WVU and 16.5 sacks at the JUCO college he went to. Pete Carroll recruited him out of high school as well. He was able to get all those sacks with very little coaching at WVU. Imagine what he could do with NFL caliber coaching.

And don't forget, Mel Piper Jr, Todd McShay, Mike Mayock, and any other self proclaimed draft expert would be working as scouts and talent evaluators for teams if they were actually any good. The more and more I hear about Irvin and what he has done and overcome, the more I like the kid.

I love Bruce "Beast Mode" Irvin. I've watched him these past two years and remember him signing his LOI with WVU. Pete Carroll recruited him out of the Texas JUCO college, not out of high school. Bruce dropped out of high school and got his GED. I thought he might go in the first round I just didn't think he'd go that soon. He was taken out of the starting line up this year after 5 games because of his ineffectiveness against the run. That doesn't mean he'll be a bust, but he is definitely a project. He's also the best pure pass rusher in the entire draft.

Re: Rookie potentials

Does that mean the Seahawks have Beast Mode on both sides of the ball?
