In case you have to be an Insider (which I am not), hopefully someone can post it here.
So what does that say about his rankings?braden said:I know KLaw is very divisive but I take his insights more seriously than any of the other evaluators.
I also love how fans of literally every team claim he has an unreasonable bias against their franchise.

All The Hype said:I don't really see the problem with any list.
There's no one in the world who will guess the top 100 prospects in the exact order of future production and value to their organizations, so why chastise someone for stepping outside the box and making some bold predictions? Makes for some fun discussion anyway.

If you ever listen to him speak or read his analysis you'd realize that what you're perceiving as pompousness is simply his reaction to irrational criticism - he's sarcastic - it's something that's made him exceptionally popular. To say that he's not well respected within the industry is a gross inaccuracy.
It certainly doesn't surprise me that many members here discount Law's opinion. Some prospectors seem to be among the most sensitive people around. Any perceived negativity towards their 'guy' is taken as an outright attack. Unlike most, Law doesn't mince words so I can only imagine the feathers he ruffles here.bballcardkid said:Wes said:bballcardkid said:Klaw would be more respected if he wasn't a pompous tool.

If you consider sarcasm to read like a superiority complex loaded with insults, then we will have to agree to disagree. The fact that many members seem to discount his opinions is an indication to me that he isn't as expected as he thinks he is.
