"Inside Recruiting" by Andy Staples - SI.com

I'm so glad I found this article. It's a compilation of where the top expected draft picks in this year's NFL draft were ranked as recruits out of high school. History, speculation, and high school football all rolled into one. What more could you possibly want out of an article? Anthony Costanzo (previously referenced in this blog update before I read this article) was a 2-star recruit (out of 5 stars). Now he's a first round draft pick. Is that reverse racism?

Probably not. More likely just bad scouting.
