    The Elite Top 5 to 6 Players in this draft frequently referenced ...

    I know I heard the Bills scouting director and a few other other GMs talked about before the draft - not espn talking heads. Does it look like the top 6, 7 picks except Bortles?

    NFL listed some rankings and only 5 got a score 7 or higher. I know teams will have different scores and rankings (the board is far more different as they usually figure in team specifics). Who do most people talk about this 6th guy as elite talent, Barr? Evans?

    1(1) Texans Clowney, Jadeveon DE 6'6" 266 South Carolina 7.5
    2(2) Rams (From Redskins) Robinson, Greg OT 6'5" 332 Auburn 7.4
    3(3) Jaguars Bortles, Blake QB 6'5" 232 Central Florida 6.2
    4(4) Bills (From Browns) Watkins, Sammy WR 6'1" 211 Clemson 7.3
    5(5) Raiders Mack, Khalil OLB 6'3" 251 Buffalo 7.2
    6(6) Falcons Matthews, Jake OT 6'5" 308 Texas A&M 7.2
    7(7) Buccaneers Evans, Mike WR 6'5" 231 Texas A&M 6.4
    8(8) Browns (From Vikings) Gilbert, Justin CB 6'0" 202 Oklahoma St. 6.3
    9(9) Vikings (From Bills through Browns) Barr, Anthony OLB 6'5" 255 UCLA 6.5
    10(10) Lions Ebron, Eric TE 6'4" 250 North Carolina 6.2
    11(11) Titans Lewan, Taylor OT 6'7" 309 Michigan 6.3

                You sure this matches up?

                Weren't Clowney/Robinson/Mack/Watkins considered Perenial All-Pro types? Especially Clowney?

                Or maybe only Luck types get in the 8+ range?

                Serious question.

                  Clowney should be a high 8 to over 9 for sure.

                  I have questions about the number rankings
