Another U player to go #1 overall in the draft?

I think it might be just a little early to start thinking about the 2013 darft.

I know he's a beast that clogs the line and that's his main utility, but don't you have be a wee bit more productive to be a defensive lineman and get #1 status?

He's often the subject of triple teams. Pac 12 offensive lineman voted him the hardest dlineman to block after this past season. Every week he's the centerpiece of the opposing offenses game planning. His production would be mind boggling if he was the subject of one-on-one blocking. Hell, his production would probably still be amazing even if he was just double teamed all the time. Since his numbers are hard to quantify, I think people are so high on him for the simple fact that he demands so much attention from the offense, that it allows several of his teammates to flow freely to the ball.

Do I think he'll be the #1 pick? No. QB is at too much of a premium in todays NFL. Barkley and the Arkansas QB will most definitely go ahead of Star. However, he will be a Top 5 or 10 pick and he should be.
 
With the Rams having two (probably top 12) picks next year, I'm dreaming about Star in blue and gold.
 
Yeah unless you think he's gonna but a Suh or Ngata type hard to say he'd go #1 and even then if you thought he was it would still be hard as DT's just don't go that high often. It is nice to see him get some pub and even coming back, here's to hoping he can handle the expectations and pressure.
 
If the Colts get the #1 pick again, they better not draft Star with it. I'm sure they could trade that pick and drop down and still get Star in the top 10. I think the Rams will have the #1 pick next year. The NFC West plays both the NFC North and AFC East this year. The Rams schedule is brutal.
