Also, vote for no 2.

No. 1: Cade Cunningham

In the vote for the number one overall prospect, the LB community overwhelmingly favored Cade Cunningham out of Oklahoma State University, receiving 76% of the vote.

What They’re Saying

Kevin O’Connor, The Ringer

Franchise-changing offensive orchestrator with smooth scoring skills, versatile defense, and a winning mentality.

John Hollinger, The Athletic

Ultimately, the best reason to pick Cunningham is that his elite shooting gives him the highest floor of any player in the draft. Cunningham shot 40 percent from 3-point range and 84.6 percent from the line, and many of those 3s were tough looks off the dribble. His catch-and-shoots look perfect, and he has the size to shoot over any closeout. That perimeter skill set, from a big wing who can handle and pass, makes Khris Middleton-type outcomes seem reasonably likely.

Where I push back is the idea that Cunningham can be “The Man,” the guy you give the keys to the offense on Day 1 and never look back. For me, he’s much more of a secondary creator who can weaponize his shooting threat rather than the guy you play on the ball for 60 trips a game.
