Hopkins is legit: 18 td's & was the best player on his college team ( that is full of studs )
Check out the sports science special on him ( sick hands )!!

Walter is good for mock draft that's as far as ill go
My 2013 Predictions[Non-PPR]:
[:(] C.J. Spiller Will Be The #1RB(Jan 9th)
[ ] Demaryius Thomas will be the #1 scoring WR!(Feb 13th)
[ ] Trent Richardson will NOT finish as a Top 10 RB!(June 4th)
[:(] Rob Housler will be a Top 5 TE in 2013!(July 18th)
[ ] Josh Gordon will put up a 80/1200/10 stat line in just 14 Games!(Sept 5th)

Same as Ball - solid skills but not elite talent! This will be exposed in the NFL! Only way Hopkins succeeds is as a #2 WR with single coverage - he will be shut down if he gets extra over the top attention! Same with Ball, as part of an overall team he can be good, as the focal point with 8 in the box his career comes to a halt! It takes elite and special abilities to be double-teamed and still produce!

I disagree with the elite comment. No, he doesn't have blazing speed but that is not needed to be elite. He has the some of the best hands around, runs great routes and he attacks the ball. I'm not saying he is going to bust out this year and win ROY but I do think he has the talent to be a future top 10 WR. Just my opinion but in the end that's all any of this is, opinions. Time will tell.

Agreed TD Vulture - which adds to my amazement at comments that just say WOW! Instead of adding an opinion with real thought behind it!

Just didn't feel like going down that road again like you have with so many others before. Like I've said, you bring a unique element to DC, but surely even you can understand why someone could see the ludicrous thought you expressed about Hopkin's inability to become elite/special. I guess it's good you weren't around when some guy named Jerry Rice (along with others) was in his beginning stages of his career....it would take a lot of tissue to wipe all that egg off your face. I've already traveled farther down this road than I wanted. Look, I respect your views, heck I even agree with you some, but not with that statement.

I could be wrong about Hopkins, and Montee Ball... Of course I could. Or, injury could strike em both! It happens.
But, I feel both smell a lot like like Cam Newton, who was doubted more than either Hopkins or Ball!
