Interesting to see Metcalf at a 76. I'm also curious to see where QBs like Brett Hundley, Case Keenum, and Eli Manning are rated in comparison to Murray, Haskins, and Jones.
Thy didn't care about draft position, I like it.
I feel like they did rate the QB's very low tho. I wonder how will it pan out in the long term and wonder if there isn't gonna be a big difference of rating between every positions (There are 13 TE with a higher overall than daniel Jones..)
I agree don't get hung up on OVR, however there are some interesting tidbits in that realm if you compare them to 19. I pointed out a few of them on my blog, but the one that really stick out to me is that the first O linemen doesn't appear until 72 OVR.

One of the things to see in game will be how a player like Metcalf does in the game against established Cornerbacks. With his low 70s route running numbers he should not be creating early separation against good DBs.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.
It seems like there is a big disparity between Dline and Oline. The 25th best OL's average overall is 66.6 while the 25th best DL's average overall is 71.2.
much lower ratings across the board, I like it. only 2 offensive lineman with 90+ strength and only 3 defensive lineman. those with high ratings should really stand out in this years game.

this draft was touted as being STACKED on the defensive line and not very good on the offensive line

It was a pretty weak O-line class though...I'm not sure that this bothers me all that much.
Play the games you love, not the games you want to love.

Agreed. Giving him low 70's route running was pretty generous honestly, but hopefully that shows in game.
Overall, I love seeing these guys rated low. It sets our expectations for draft classes as well. A 77-80 rated player will be a great pick compared to guys coming out in the mid 80's in previous years.
How is Andy Isabella a 95 speed and Kyler a 91 when Kyler beat him in that video recently and many of the OU coaches said he could beat Hollywood Brown in a 40 yd dash and he got a 97? They must have nerfed it because might be game breaking if his rating was accurate. That's way too low though.
EDIT- Got a tweet back on this one as well and they said that they hand timed Kyler and did research on him. Also factored in his heavier playing weight in the NFL
