Oddly enough this stood out to me. They don't mention any stats for Nkemdiche and then list Chris Jones stats as him not living up to billing yet. It is funny how people spin things.

13. Robert Nkemdiche
Ole Miss Rebels
Junior | Defensive tackle
Score: 8.30

Former No. 1 prospect Nkemdiche was the centerpiece of Ole Miss' loaded 2013 recruiting class. He has done a bit of everything since arriving in Oxford - he's even played running back - but his skills as a defensive lineman are his calling card. This is an important season for the junior to prove himself as a consistent every-down performer, as NFL scouts will be watching and he has the game to become a first-round pick.

I looked up his stats: 4 career sacks (2 less than Chris Jones), 12 TFL (1.5 more than CJ), 69 tackles (11 more than CJ) all while playing the majority of snaps while CJ has played about 50%.


T-63. Chris Jones
Mississippi State Bulldogs
Junior | Defensive lineman
Score: 6.98

Jones' production level hasn't matched the amount of hype he received as an incoming recruit. (He has only started three times and has six career sacks, 10.5 tackles for loss and 58 total tackles.) That could change this year, as he is expected to step into a full-time starting role at defensive tackle. His strength and athleticism are unquestioned; production is what's anticipated for the 6-foot-6, 308-pound Jones.
