We have a fun one started at QB, so I thought it would be fun to have one for other positions.
I remember thinking both JJ Watt and Aaron Donald were can't miss. Donald had one of the best college seasons of all time his senior year. Derrick Henry was another guy I thought was can't miss because he broke the national high school rushing record that stood for 50 years and followed it up with the Heisman. Just seemed like he would keep going. Barry Sanders was one other guy that I thought would be an instant star.
I was also envious of the Cowboys picking Bobby Carpenter, so there's the other side of that.
Who were some of your "can't miss" prospects?

Re: "Can't Miss" Prospects at other Positions
Derrick Henry was definitely one for me also. Should've gone ahead of Zeke, and probably would've been 1.01 in the 90s. Made absolutely no sense for every team to pass on this guy. Have analytics taken over to such an extent that they win out even when the output is obviously just stupid?
