Your team's success with 5 star recruits

[gob]

Or if you don't have many 5 stars, top 4 stars. I went back to 2010, and stopped at 2017. Cause...I feel like it.

2011
Curtis Grant - Solid contributor, but didn't live up to the hype (Undrafted)
Braxton Miller - Panned out. Unfortunate he got injured. (Third Round)

2012
Noah Spence - Started off so promising, but he fucked up, and got kicked out. Ultimately, bust. (Second Round)
Adolphus Washington - Solid contributor. Wouldn't say a bust. (Third Round)

2013
Vonn Bell - Panned out (Second Round)
Jalin Marshall - Bust (Undrafted)

2014
Raekwon McMillan - Panned out. (Second Round)

2015
Justin Hilliard - So far, bust, but he has an opportunity to be a solid contributor. (Still in school)

2016
Nick Bosa - Obviously panned out. (First Round)

2017
Chase Young - Obviously, panned out (First Round)
Jeff Okudah - Panned out (First Round)
Baron Browning - Solid Contributor (Still in school)
Shaun Wade - Not done yet, but expected to pan out (Still in school)
Wyatt Davis - Not done yet, but expected to pan out (Still in school)


14 total. 3 first round. 3 second. 2 third. 2 undrafted. 4 still in school.

6 success. 2 expected success. 4 (potential) solid contributors. 2 busts.

2011:

Isaiah Crowell- brittle bitch his freshman year, then got kicked off the team.
Ray Drew- Really solid contributor at UGA, never really panned out in the NFL

2012:

Keith Marshall- Was really, really good until he got hurt, got drafted, but couldn't stay healthy
John Theus- One of the best O-linemen of the Richt era. NFL career cut short due to injuries, definitely worked out
Josh Harvey-Clemons- followed Todd Grantham to Louisville, and then got torched in the 2014 bowl game
Jordan Jenkins- Solid at UGA, solid in the NFL

2013:

No 5 stars

2014:

Lorenzo Carter- Was hit or miss, but showed flashes his first 3 years, but had a great senior season and got drafted in the 4th round
Sony Michel- Great career at UGA, first round pick.
Nick Chubb- Great career at UGA, early second round pick, and has had a great start to his NFL career

2015:

Trenton Thompson- Was really good at UGA, but should have stayed for his senior season
Terry Godwin- Real nice tenure at UGA, was drafted and on an NFL roster

2016:

Jacob Eason- Mediocre at best freshman season, lost his job to Jake Fromm and transferred to Washington
Mecole Hardman- Excellent at UGA, despite his freshman year being wasted as a DB. Still raw at WR, but he's a deep threat in KC now
Isaac Nauta- He did fine, but was vastly underused at UGA through no fault of his own IMO. Got drafted.

2017:

Isaiah Wilson- Excellent for us, and taken in the first round this year
Richard LeCounte- The face of our defense, still on the team
D'Andre Swift- One of my favorite players we've ever had

 

[NolePride]

Florida State.

We've had around 17 since 2011. Most are Unrestricted Free Agents

 

[ericd7633]

2011

Aaron Lynch - Had a good FR, but transferred to USF after FR year. Would have liked to see him on the 2012 defense
Ishaq Williams - Never liked up to the hype. Bust

2012

Gunner Kiel - Transferred after FR year I think. Never had an impact.

2013

Jaylon Smith - Simply put a stud. Would have been a top 3 pick if he didn't fuck up his leg in the bowl game

Max Redfield - Played alot during his career. I think he was suspended for his SR season. Mixed bag.

2016

Tommy Kraemer - 3 year starter, should be a 1st/2nd rounder next year.

Definitely some hits and misses.

This list started before my first beer, had a work "social", had a friend "social", had dinner, and about 8 beers from the first typed word. I feel like at the beginning I was really in a groove, then I just wanted to finish

 

[We Are Decent]

2013:
Christian Hackenberg- Did pretty well for what he got but sadly he's had a bad if non-existent Pro Career
2016:
Miles Sanders- Yesss very nice did good in college and currently is having a good Pro Career

...yeah only 2 5-stars in 2010-2017, oh well.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

no point to the exercise for me.

 

[Gohogs14]

We've only had one in that time period. Several very high 4-stars though. Thought Alex Collins was a 5* but looked back and he wasn't quite that high.

2016: DL McTelvin Agim - Just drafted by the Broncos in the 3rd round. Started basically all four years, maybe wasn't dominant like you'd expect of a 5* but was a very good player and didn't exactly get much help.

Going back a little further...

2009: CB Darius Winston - Bust. Started later in his career at times but didn't set the world on fire.
2006: QB Mitch Mustain - Bust. Bunch of drama with Nutt/Malzahn, eventually transferred to USC but didn't play much. Went 8-0 as a true freshman starter though largely thanks to the next guy on the list.
2005: RB/ATH Darren McFadden - Safe to say this one worked out. Two-time Heisman runner up and top 5 pick. We almost played him at safety, would have been interesting to see what he could do there but he was electric with the ball in his hands.

 

[Duckboy33]

2010:
Lache Seastrunk - Never played a down at Oregon. Transferred to Baylor and had a decent career. Played in the NFL but didn't stick around.

2011:
DeAnthony Thomas - Had a good career at Oregon and got drafted in the 4th round. Still hanging around in the NFL but hasn't really found his place in the NFL.

2012:
Arik Armstead - A bunch of "experts" and USC people said Oregon was going to ruin him by having him play defense. Armstead had a great career at Oregon and recently signed a 5 year, 85 Million dollar contract with the 49ers.

2013:
Thomas Tyner - He was from the state of Oregon and he showed signs of greatness. Unfortunately, he suffered too many injuries which ended his career earlier than it should. I feel bad for Tyner, he would have been an NFL running back if he stayed healthy. Fun Fact, he would later return to college football with Oregon State in 2017 but he wasn't the same athlete that he once was.

2015:
Canton Kaumatule - Never made an impact at Oregon, ended up transferring to UCF.

2019:
Kayvon Thibodeaux - Had a very good Freshmen season, looking forward to seeing what he can do the next two seasons.

2020:
Noah Sewell - TBD
Justin Flowe - TBD

Surprised you didn’t have Royce Freeman in there. Going back to last decade Jonathan Stewart and Haloti Ngata (Future HOF)

 

[broncosmitty]

Never had one.

Jason Babin, Greg Jennings and Corey Davis were all two star guys.

Signed a kid named Antwan Reed a couple years ago. OLineman outta Muskegon, first four star in school history, but he ended up going JuCo.

 

[steelerssb]

Only guys I can think of off-hand are Green-Beckham and Beckner.

DGB was great until he started busting down apartment doors in the same apartment complex I was in at the time. Beckner was dominant at time but couldn't stay healthy or off the weed.

Also I guess Sheldon Richardson counts, he was pretty well worth it.

I went by the 247 composite (had Royce as a high 4 star) and went back until 2010 because that’s what the OP did
