This is a bit of hyperbole, but I like to remind people, not just posters here, that NOBODY has a clue how these prospects will pan out in the NFL. So, using terms like reach and worth when talking about prospects actually means jack squat.

It is but it isn't. See by you saying that it is a self defeating statement. If what you say is in fact true every team could randomly pull names out of a hat and have the same chance of success. They are educated guesses. You use the available information to make predictions but things can happen that alter their success including the team they are taken by.

Really in comparison 1st round picks bust out much less than any other round in the draft. The simple fact is the NFL is a numbers game and 256 guys can't join the league every year and stick. The fact the 1st round bust out at a lesser rate would mean that some people know something about something.
