🏈 Greg Cosell - "...best player in this draft class is Alabama RB Trent Richardson"

[planomateo]

Was catching up on some tweets yesterday and found this article "Cosell Talks: The Running Back Conundrum".

This rant resulted from my extensive college film study over the past month preparing for the NFL draft. I believe the best player in this draft class is Alabama RB Trent Richardson, not Andrew Luck or Robert Griffin III. Richardson is the best back to enter the NFL since Adrian Peterson in 2007. I know Richardson won’t be the first pick, and I know an elite quarterback is a far more important component. But as I said, there’s more to it than that.

He makes some really good points in this piece, give it a read.

I believe Richardson is great, I think he was at an elite status as soon as he hit campus, but its way too early to evaluate. So many possible sleepers that could be Rookie of the year. But TBH Trent has the best chance out of all the players, Griffin behind him. I'm just hoping my Raider pick someone up like Menzie to help our D-Backs, absolutely horrid last year.
