Martel Moore who just caught that TD is someone I wouldn't be surprised ends up as a Patriot. Has that short area quickness BB likes. Can catch too:

The Gator's sophomore shutdown corner back (and standout special teamer) playing WR on offense. I'm in love. Welcome to the MHTK 2014 binky list!

Geez, who the hell's this Bridgewater kid? I need to get more into college football.

He's a top 5 draft pick whenever he comes out. Incredible poise and intelligence.

Louisville's DE Marcus Smith was mighty impressive last night. He's a Jnr so one to watch for next year.

And Matt Elam is incredible. I worry that he's a tad undisciplined but Merrill is right, he adds a real intensity to the defense. Shades of Ray Lewis in that regard. I would have no problem drafting him in the first based purely on BPA as opposed to need.

Agreed. Not my first plan, but a worthy option.

In the pros that one big hit early would've cost 15 yards and likely a five-figure fine...plus he didn't wrap up.

Elam definitely has plenty going for him. But I sometimes see flashes of Meriweather from him. I preferred Josh Evans, the other Florida Safety.

Teddy Ballgame. Dare I say the poise of a young Tom Brady with the athleticism of Aaron Rodgers. Jaguars gonna take him or Clowney next spring?

I think Clowney goes #1, he's too rare a prospect not too but Bridgewater will have to start sucking not to be considered a top 5 pick when he comes out. Bear in mind, he's showing that poise as a Soph. Imagine how good he'll be with some real experience

Next Years Top 5?

1. Clowney
2. Bridgewater
3. Marquise Lee
4. Tuitt?
5. Jake Matthews

Add in Sammy Watkins, Louis Nix, random Alabama player, Anthony Barr, Bradley Roby and Louchiez Purifoy plus another QB or two and you're looking at a very nice Top 10.

Don't forget that Johnny Football will be a redshirt sophomore and could come out next year. He could be RGIII to Bridgwater as Andrew Luck, on a slightly lesser level, but with a much stronger group around them. And don't forget about Austin Seferian-Jenkins.
