Kicker U has to be Florida State

 

[romeo212000]

Oklahoma has a legitimate claim to RBU. Oklahoma running backs in the NFL right now include:

Adrian Peterson (first ballot HOF)
Demarco Murray
Damien Williams
Samaje Perine
Joe Mixon

And Rodney Anderson is on the verge of being a first round pick.

 

[olympicoscar]

Oklahoma has also had some good QB's in the last 10 years or so.

 

[ericd7633]

I think UGA has a claim on RB:

Sony Michele
Nick Chubb
Todd Gurley
Keith Marshall
Knowshon Moreno

Off the top of my head.

 

[ericd7633]

Clemson or Ohio State for DL off the top of my head.

That's who I originally thought of for QB. Bradford, Jones and Baker.

 

[AlaskaGuy]

USC has like a half dozen WR's that are starting in the NFL.

Group of young, former USC receivers are performing above expectations in the NFL

Yeah. Anderson is gone next year IMO. It took him a good half year to finally get comfortable, (which you really can’t blame, given the seriousness of his injuries), but once he did, he became a monster.

Definitely the one area where we seem to never have a problem landing stud after stud.

You could make a case for Ohio state being DBU.

 

[Wild Turkey]

Kicker U has to be Florida State

I'll take Auburn's place kickers all day long over FSU.

 

[NolePride]

You could make a case for Ohio state being DBU.

You could make a better case for Florida State over the past 10 years,
and the only case over the last 30.

Last 10 years...
Patrick Robinson
Mike Harris
Xavier Rhodes
Terrance Brooks
Lamarcus Joyner
PJ Williams
Ronald Darby
Jalen Ramsey
Marquez White

And that doesn't include the 2018 draft

 

[jwolt92]

I'll take Auburn's place kickers all day long over FSU.

I mean.. 2 Lou Groza award winners to 0 in that time. Then if you include the NFL success during that time frame, it isn't even close

 

[jwolt92]

And maaaaybe if Parkey doesn't miss that kick....

 

[Mistaken4193]

Alabama has a claim for.....LBU,DLU,OLU,RBU,WRU,...pretty much everything except kicker U.

 

[MikeMed]

Clemson has had some great WR's

Clemson WRs: Sammy Watkins, Martavis Bryant, Mike Williams and Deandre Hopkins just off the top of my head

Doran Grant
Eli Apple
Von Bell
Marshon Lattimore

You forgot Denzel Ward

 

[7Samurai13]

Since others are including players who were drafted in 2007.

Michigan State has had 5 QBs that have started for them start an NFL game.

Drew Stanton
Brian Hoyer
Nick Foles (only started one game for MSU but I’m going to count it)
Kirk Cousins
Connor Cook

None have been especially great but...

You forgot Denzel Ward

I didn't include him because he didn't include Derwin James.
