2022 Draft Rankings—Underrated/Overrated
#1
PREDICTION
This draft will break a record for trades. Vikings will trade down and take Trent McDuffie. I want them to trade down big, get a 1st next year, and take Kaiir Elam. I’ve tried calling but Rick blocked my number in 2014. 
WHAT AM I MISSING
Kenny Pickett, QB - He’s Cousins 2.0. Not quite the arm strength, but accurate and much more mobile
RANKINGS

Corners:
  1. Ahmad Gardner - Worry about his strength and in off coverage, big upside though
  2. Derek Stingley Jr - Classic boom or bust. If Daronte signs off, I’ll like him more.
  3. Trent McDuffie - Best all around corner in the draft. But upside is limited.
  4. Kaiir Elam - Terrific in coverage, tackling problem maybe a little overstated
  5. Andrew Booth, Jr - best open field tackler, but SO many injuries
Overrated: Ahmad Gardner - Great in press, Less great in off
Underrated: Coby Bryant - Poor man’s McDuffie
Edge:
  1. Aiden Hutchinson - What’s not to like?
  2. Travon Walker - Held back at Georgia, but built to attack
  3. Jermaine Johnson - He belongs in top 10
  4. Kayvon Thibodeaux - Probably UNDERrrated now
  5. Drake Jackson - Early concerns about character might have been overblown
Overrated: George Karloftis - Doesn’t belong in conversation with those around him
Underrated: Josh Paschal
Safeties

  1. Kyle Hamilton - Love his instincts
  2. Lewis Cine - One dimensional? Haven’t decided, but he hits like a truck
  3. Nick Cross - HWS
Overrated: Dax Hill - I think he’s a corner
Underrated: Nick Cross - Piece of clay
WR:

  1. Chris Olave - Nice feet, routes, more experience than Wilson
  2. Garrett Wilson - Love receivers like this. Versatile, YAC, great feet and routes
  3. Jameson Williams - Small, fragile, hurt and will drop some balls, but the most explosive receiver in the draft
  4. George Pickens - Character red flags, but the best WR I watched
  5. Christian Watson - HWS is enticing
Overrated: Drake London - Couldn’t separate in college, how will he in the NFL?
Underrated: Wan’Dale Robinson - Electric
ILB:

  1. Nakobe Dean - Undersized but rangy, instinctive and smart
  2. Devin Lloyd - Love him. Just like Dean a little more
  3. Christian Harris - Athlete, can cover
  4. Channing Tindall - Better pro than college player
  5. Quay Walker - Better college than pro player
Overrated: Troy Anderson - My alma mater, but what do you do with him?
Underrated: Channing Tindall
DL:

  1. Jordan Davis - Will only play half your snaps, but give you Vita Vea when he does
  2. Logan Hall - My picks as most underrated player in the draft
  3. Devonte Wyatt - No character issues, he’s #1
  4. Travis Jones - Best football ahead of him
  5. Phidarian Mathis - Limited but productive and high motor
Overrated: Perrion Winfrey - Too much baggage
Underrated: Eyioma Uwazurike, Eric Johnson
QBs:

  1. Kenny Pickett - Cousins 2.0 with speed
  2. Malik Willis - Lamar Jackson 2.0 or an utter failure. Your guess as good as mine
Overrated: All the rest
Underrated: Kenny Pickett
OTHERS UNDERRATED
Trent McDuffie, CB - Best CB I watched, coverage and character next level
Kaiir Elam, CB - If he could tackle he’d be the 2nd CB after Sauce
Spencer Burford, G/T - Late round G/T with long arms, good feet and was a 4-star recruit. Big Senior Bowl.
Sean Rhyan, IOL - Rare OL with power and feet who can played each position
Eyioma Uwazurike - Ultra versatile NT/DT/DE who’s best football is ahead of him
OTHERS OVERRATED
Carson Strong - He’ll be drafted but shouldn’t be
Matt Corrall - The polar opposite of Cousins. But too far to the other side.
David Ojabo, Edge - All athlete. Now an achilles. Where’s the Excedrin?
Daxton Hill, S - Good, but should not be above Cine IMO
Perrion Winfrey, Edge - Too much baggage
Drake London, WR - My only real cat at the TV pick
Desmond Ritter, QB  - There’s something there, but it never comes together

Would love to see Stingley, Hamilton or Davis at 12.

Would love to move for Dean or Quay Walker with 2nd.

Not really a fan of McDuffie.

You're certainly not the only one. Vikings twitter hates young T-Mac. It's just weird to me. I don't know how anyone can watch this guy's tape, youtube, whatever and go, "wow...sure don't like that guy."
