I'd pose this question: IF OJ Howard played for a team like Miami or Pitt...would he have been such a highly rated TE prospect?

It's impossible to know...but I'm doubting that he looks as good as he did at Alabama on those teams.

He might have actually been selected higher if he played for a team where he was the focus and he racked up gaudy stats.  He had a big game in the Championship Game, but his season wasn't that impressive.  A lot of that blame should fall on Kiffin, but you can't argue with their run-first offense...they win a ton of games.
