"Top Senior" / NFL Lists (Is Troy Smith an NFL QB?)
He just showed his picks for the top seniors for college football next year, with golden-boy Brady Quinn being #1, and his receiver Jess Samardzija also making the top 10.
Of course, Troy Smith is apparently not worth of being one of the Top 10 seniors. Somehow, it doesn't really hurt considering this is the guy who looked like a retard with his picks on draft day  .

I think it was based on pro prospects and right now Smith is not a top 10 senior in terms of pro potential.
I don't know about Samardzija, I would question his speed, he is good, but top 10 is too high IMO.
Overall I didnt think it was a good looking list, but it is way to early to try and rate these guys already.

I have my doubts about Smith as a top 10 pick. Size wise, he isn't a prototypical pro QB. That will affect him in the draft.

you're the one looking like a retard saying that at this point Troy Smith is a top #10 draft pick.

I believe those picks were for players that have pro potential for their current position.
I don't believe Troy will be a QB in the pros. I think if anything, he will be a WR, like Michael Robinson from PSU switching to WR.

Can anyone dig up his Top Ten Seniors from this time in 2005?
I think that would make a fascinating example of just how futile it is to name your flavors of the month, April 2007, in April of 2006.
