Bills and ex-Bills in the draft

[The_Philster]

Every year I get the Sporting News Pro Football Draft guide and one of their most interesting things is how they compare college prospects to current NFL players. Something to look for, I guess...a measuring stick of sorts.
Here's the Bills and ex-Bills being compared to
Byron Leftwich, Marshall=Drew Bledsoe
Seneca Wallace, Iowa State=Doug Flutie
Brian St. Pierre, Boston College=AVP
Artrose Pinner, Kentucky=Antowain Smith
Dahrann Diedrick, Nebraska=Shawn Bryson
Malaefou MacKenzie, USC=Sammy Morris
Talman Gardner, Florida State=Peerless Price
J.R. Tolver, San Diego State=Bobby Shaw
LaTerance Dunbar, TCU=Drew Haddad
Bennie Joppru, Michigan=Jay Riemersma
Gabriel Reid, BYU=Dave Moore
Steve Sciullo, Marshall=Jonas Jennings
Wade Smith, Memphis=John Fina
Jamil Soriano, Harvard=Corbin Lacina
Dewayne Robertson, Kentucky=Pat Williams
Victor Hobson, Michigan=Eddie Robinson


I didn't catch much college action this year so I was wondering if anyone feels any of these comparisons are very accurate. I know some of them have to be way off....they had D'Wayne Bates compared to Andre Reed when he came out. :snicker:

Victor Hobson sucks? He must play like an old man.

:lol: I think they mean compared to Eddie Robinson in his prime..as far as how he might end up playing in the NFL.
