Man, I remember in the ESPN boards people calling for his head and moving him back to right tackle.

I said he would be a top 5 LT in a few years. I've been wrong a lot, but this is one of the happy right's.

Wow. That's high. Obviously I love Joe, but I wouldn't even put him at 16. That 2007 draft has three guys in the top-100, and presumably two in the top-20. Not too shabby.

This is the type of list that Sickness was talking about... and why I don't like these types of lists authored by fans based on their own biases and homerism.

Aldon Smith at #57? Compared to Clay Steroids at #24? lol... what a joke. Especially when they say the key stat for their placement is where they ranked in pressure from the 3-4 OLB position. Smith at #1 and Clay Steroids at #3, so tell me again PFF how the stat you value the most makes #3 better than #1 by an enormous amount? Clay's best year is still .5 sack short of Aldon's worst year... but yeah, Clay Steroids is a god because he got 13.5 sacks once.
