It's easy to forget that Watt is a rookie, damn the 2011 draft was a good one.
I'm trying to rank what I think will be the top 10 players out of the draft and it's easier said than done. Here's what I've got so far:
1) Cam Newton
2) Aldon Smith
3) Patrick Peterson
4) AJ Green
5) Von Miller
6) JJ Watt
7) Andy Dalton
7) DeMarco Murray
8) Marcell Dareus
9) Julio Jones
10) Ryan Kerrigan
And on top of that there were several more players I was really impressed by like: Torrey Smith, Richard Sherman, Mike Pouncey, Tyron Smith, Cameron Heyward, and Christian Ponder.
That's not even mentioning some of the 1st rounders that didn't get much playing time this year like Prince Amukamara, Jake Locker, Mark Ingram, and Nick Fairley. It is easily one of the best draft classes of the last decade.
