What makes Eric Berry a better prospect than Earl Thomas
 
For all those here who watched both play- why is Eric Berry the better pick? From a production stand point it looks as if Thomas had 4 times more INTs than Berry last season.

I'm not bashing the pick at all but since I don't follow college football I'm interested.

this should end well.

This makes more sense than Pawnmowers ****ing threads about two completely different players.

Joe Seahawk 04-25-2010 08:52 PM

Thomas is better.. ;)

kcxiv 04-25-2010 08:52 PM

well, i know Berry can play in the box or can play centerfield. Maybe thats the difference? he's pretty damned good in any scheme.

It's very simple, really.

Earl Thomas doesn't have a video like this.

I know I'll prob get flamed since I don't follow college ball or pretend to know alot about the top 10 picks. It's cool-ill take it

No worries. Starting threads about things you don't know things about are generally good ways to make friends/influence people. I'm sure you'll get the information you're looking for in a calm, rational way. Good luck!

I think your question should be:

What makes Moeaki a better prospect than Pitta/Graham/McCoy?

Yes, it is simpler for you to understand, moron.

holy shit this has to be some sort of funny joke.

AustinChief 04-25-2010 08:56 PM

Berry is more polished and slightly better in run support. He is also smarter and very high character, a natural leader. (not that Thomas is a thug, just haven't heard as much GOOD as I have regarding Berry)

That said, he isn't leaps and bounds better but he is better. They both should have very productive careers...

In this years draft, the dropoff after those two was massive.

Physical attributes, leadership ability/intangibles and respective roles in the defense.

Thomas was allowed to play a pure CF and ball-hawk. Berry was asked to do quite a bit more for the Vols. He essentially doubled as a linebacker for the squad in run-support.

Berry has a far better football frame. He's built thicker and he's been far less injury-prone. Thomas is a fairly slight guy for someone that's intended to be a safety in the NFL. I can't see him avoiding missing a handful of games every year with the physical toll that safety takes on the body.

Thomas has had some work ethic worries whereas Berry has one of the best makeups in the draft. And there's the Longhorn factor.

It is a valid question, don't mind all the hate, OP. The tards that are getting angry at the question are just angry they don't know the answer....anyone who actually was confident in the answer would simply just answer the question.

The tards that are getting angry feel deep inside that Seattle may have had the draft WE wanted (okung + thomas + more)
