I like that list, almost like mine:

1.  Geno Smith
2.  Matt Barkley
3.  Tajh Boyd
4.  Robert Woods
5.  Monte Ball

Sorry, Lattimore doesn’t make jack crap until he proves he can bounce back from injury.  And its going to take more then a couple games to prove it.

If you’re happy with good enough, then good enough is what you’ll be. Greatness requires the expectation of excellence.

You would put Marqise Lee above Woods?  I mean both are good don’t get me wrong but idk.  Woods is the workhorse.  Maybe its a case like Clemson has, the second WR will emerge over the star from last year?  We’ll see I guess.

Joseph Randle I’m iffy about, no more Weeden, no more Blackmon (3 of their top WRs gone) I just don’t know if he’ll have the team behind him to support him this year especially with their schedule.

Marqise Lee was on fire late last season. 39 catches/600 yards in final 4 games. Maybe not quite the natural receiver that Woods is, but if Lee gets the ball in space, it’s over. Plus, I see Woods missing a game or two.

I agree Randle is a longshot, but hell, so were Ingram, Newton, and RGIII. I’m higher on OK State than most.

Been trying to tell people last year.  Woods is a beast and will be a 1st rounder.  Lee is special and will be a top-3 pick.  Lee is a rare talent combined with a monster work ethic.  I love Woody and his talent and toughness, but Lee is one of those rare, special players.

My biggest concern for either of the USC receivers is that their teammate will take away from their production. I also think that the Trojans could be ahead by so much in many of their games that they abandon the passing game early.

Very true on that point.  WVU, USC, and Clemson have that problem….

I don’t think Kiffin and Dana have any issues with running it up on opponents, at least with conference opponents. USC beat UCLA 50-0 last year.

Barkley by a good bit; Smith and Ball will round out the top three.

just based on what ive seen, barkley (usc), bell (mich st), AE (clemson), hopkins (clemson) and smith (wvu) i think you all have latty on there too early. hemight onlybe “90%” so ill give him another 10% to his yards, 135 vs vandy? he has to prove a lot more to me

now tis is soley based on the prformance ive seen so far this season.  and i woiuld have mcgloin (psu) on this list, he really impressed me,  but you cant lose to ohio in the most important home opener in your schools history and get consideration
