Re: what would you rate the top 10 picks?

I would try to rate them how VC rated the rookies in the year the game shipped...Leinart stacks up probably as well as Eli Manning did, so what was he in the original game? 80? Maybe a little higher than Eli was, but I wouldn't make him too far from that. Similarly, a guy like Vernon Davis would compare favorably to Kellen Winslow except a bit better. As a guide I'd have most of the top 10 over 80 but under 85. The rest of the first rounders should be in the upper 70s. However some players should be rated kind of low coming straight out of college if they are projects. A guy like Vince Young probably isn't close to starting his rookie year, and I'd rate him at 75-76 b/c he is really raw. I'd give him very impressive stats except lower his consistency to bring down his overall and make his play erratic like it would be in the NFL...the consistency will go up as he progresses and he'll turn out to be a long term investment.
