The GM of the Giants said if you pick this high you think gold jacket.

So who in this draft will earn that gold jacket?


That is a tall order.

My guess and of course it is just a guess:

Barkley. And I will go out on a limb and say Darnold.

Barkley, Rosen, Minkah and Nelson are all the players I think will be in the hall of fame.

Tim Couch, Brown DE Penn St.
Gerard Warren, Braylon Edwards Trent Richardson...

Thank goodness for Joe Thomas.

I believe those are all our top 5 picks who should HOFers.

In this draft. Dont have a clue as in eenie meenie miney moe...Could end in i jury like Courtney Brown who I forgot his first name before.

Who will learn n have a lengthy successful career.

Any QB we pick and comes away with 2,3 SB wins for us would be a shoe in!

Historically, HOFers don't necessarily come out of every draft class.
Average number of HOF members by draft class from 1936-1997 is 3.5
Average number of HOF members by draft class from 1970-1997 is 3.3

Draft classes w/0 HOF members (4); 1943, 58, 86, 92
w/1 HOF member (10); 39, 41, 42, 46, 47, 54, 55, 59, 72, 77
w/2 HOF members (7); 38, 40, 70, 91, 94, 96, 97
w/3 HOF members (12); 44, 48, 60, 62, 75, 78, 79, 80, 82, 84, 85, 95
w/4 HOF members (8); 36, 49, 50, 71, 73, 89, 90, 93
w/5 HOF members (9); 45, 51, 56, 63, 65, 69, 74, 76, 88
w/6 HOF members (4); 43, 52, 81, 85
w/7 HOF members (3); 53, 61, 83

edited to add - From 1940-1944 (the years of WW2) there were a total of 7 HOF members. 40-2, 41-1, 42-1, 43-0, 44-3

We are officially hitting rock bottom. Can't wait until the draft, so that all the HS will be done.

That's a good stat reference. Thanks.

HOF is up there in expectations.

I heard a tv guy who covers college games say Barkley and Fitz. Of course I thought how can we screw this up? The first pick and two HOF prospects to choose from?

I would be extremely interested to know where in the draft they were taken... (not asking you to dig that up, just wondering out loud)

If I had to guess, I’d say none of them will be hall of famers.

You said it. This is a foolish post. The draft cannot come fast enough.

No one can predict Hall of Famers, and it's not even fun.

There's an offensive guard in the draft right now that they will take in the first and the pundits will say "He will be a mainstay on that line for a decade". But then he won't, or he'll get traded.

Did anyone think Kurt Warner (when he wasn't drafted) was gonna make the HOF? How many other undrafted dudes made the HOF?

A better post would be to guess which 3rd round draft pick will make ROY because that's more likely to happen.

Just sayin....

Of course any of them can develop into something special from any round. But from the perspective of the top prospects, which ones have shown that type of potential and project favorably to the NFL are as follows.

1. Josh Rosen
2. Sam Darnold
3. Quenton Nelson
4. Roquan Smith
5. Denzel Ward
6. Minhak FitzPatrick
7. Saquon Barkley

In my eyes these are the best prospects in this class, in nor particular order. All of which have shown elite skill sets capable of becoming something great.
