I found this fascinating to read. When you go to the web site, scroll down to read ALL of the various stat categories. It is very well done.

THE BEST NFL FACTORIES
Ever wonder which college programs produce the best NFL running backs? How about the most long-term starters or the most Pro Bowlers? We dug through data from the past 15 drafts to find out which schools make the grade at the next level. BY LUKE KNOX

This is best read on the original web site. LINK to the article.

Stay away from Ohio State. Wisconsin has put out a surprising amount of talent. Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top

this is interesting data but i don't think you could conclude that you should avoid ohio because it's trending higher on picks from; the thing to do is ask why ohio is getting players drafted and test your hypotheses (are pro teams following the coach and not the team for example).

I don't think it means anything as far as using it to project future player performance for anyone. Every player is unique. I just found it interesting as a historical perspective on past players. I'm not saying it is useful for anything. LOL, I just found it interesting to read. I'm one of those nutty people who like weird stuff like this :-)

Now, if I had an MSU degree (like BIH) then this data would be priceless to predict stuff like where to invest my life savings, or maybe where to buy my next lottery ticket... or even project it to predict the next Bears super bowl victory.

I should go back to school and get one of those MSU's.

I'm using it right to calculate (I've got a dull pencil and an old stained napkin) the best way to get the top 10 picks in the draft. I am getting close.

LOL.
Pace should implement your plan as a pyramid scheme. He could parlay our existing draft picks into 10 first round draft picks.

The Bears will draft the following players:

Deshaun Watson, QB - Clemson
Mike Williams, WR - Clemson
O.J. Howard, TE - Alabama
Solomon Thomas, DE - Stanford
Taco Charlton, DE - Michigan
Jamal Adams, SS - LSU
Malik Hooker, FS - Ohio State
Leonard Fournette, RB - LSU
Marshon Lattimore, CB - Ohio State
Garett Bolles, OT - Utah
Cam Robinson, OT - Alabama

Notice that is 11 players with 10 draft picks. It's sheer genius...all points are here in the napkin plan:

You have to take 10 QBs and then hope that Fox can only ruin half of them this year.

Genius is right. Then you trade those good 5 QBs that aren't ruined for even more draft picks. 20 QBs next year!
