College squads don't have juniors and seniors now?
Or what about the Juco transfers.. guys who redshirt
Hell, you might want to check how many of the WRs there are in the current draft who are older than brandin cooks.. a player going into this 4th year in the league
Most kids graduate at 18 in the US.. not a guarantee a incoming freshman is even going to get to play let alone play a key role
As an eagles fan, our RBs currently are: sproles, Ryan mathews and Wendell Smallwood
In a heartbeat I would take cook, mccaffrey, fournette and PSUs Barkley.. Smallwood who was drafted last year, is going at least a round later in this draft.. Mathews Career might be over
Zeke still had eligibility at OSU last season.. ditto bosa

This class is really deep at rb.. cook and mccaffrey could easily end up being better pros

No way, at all?
David Johnson is a better back than Todd gurley, right?
Gurley went 10th overall 2015, while Johnson went 86th

I just realized I'm being trolled.
Juniors and seniors would in theory be countered by actual NFL vets.
25-30 year old NFL players > juniors and seniors
21-24 1st and 2nd year players > freshman and sophomores.
I'm done with this now. You wanna believe kids can beat pros, go ahead and embarrass yourself.

Talent & ability > age
20 year old saquon Barkley is better than at least a couple RBs currently in the league
Best of the best vs the worst of the worst

Indicative of athletic ability.. we've seen young people not only survive at the highest levels, but exceed
Very very simple point.. as I've stated many times, I don't expect any of these teams to excel.. but I do think it's possible for 1 team to have 1 good day
If given the choice between the worst RB in the league or saquon Barkley, I'm taking Barkley.. that's right now

You need to ask someone who played in the pros and they'll tell you the differences.

I've never stated there aren't clearly differences.. obviously there are
This isn't a question of the average pro.. the basic level/standard of play
Talking the worst of the worst vs the very best of the best
Again, the statement used was "never"
