Sewell will most likely be a terrific lineman for many years. Chase will probably be a terrific WR for many years. However, I doubt either will turn out to be 'generational'. 

That term should be reserved for talents like Jim Brown, Anthony Munoz, Jerry Rice, Reggie White, etc. Those guys were generational talents because they played at an insanely high level for a long period of time. Like I said, I expect Sewell and Chase to be outstanding players...but generational talents? Not so much.

This. Every year there's "generational" talent coming out of the draft, or at least that's what people say. I think a lot of it is just the players agents AND the NFL are hyping up players (the NFL would do it so they can get more views for the draft).
