That is the closest we have ever seen to an NFL team beating up on college teams mostly composed of car/insurance salesmen and gym coaches. 5 1st rounders, 3 2nd rounders, 3 3rd rounders, and 3 4th rounders. (Not counting Burrow himself.)

(Don't get me wrong, I think Burrow is more talented and has a higher ceiling than Dalton, but he also played with an entire team of NFL caliber players.)

For comparison, here's TCU's 2011-2012 draftees...

T = 5th Round
WR = 5th Round

LB = 5th Round
S = 6th Round
CB = 7th Round
CB = 7th Round

Nobody earlier than the 5th round, and only 1 more player in total than LSU had 1st round players not named Burrow.

The good...or bad thing is, how Burrow does over the next 3-5 years will give us a better answer to the question. If i was going to lay down money, it would be on Burrow.
