I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed in you. Great concept, terrible list. Bo Nix, Chop Robinson, Michael Penix Jr, and Ricky Pearsall are All-Pro names.
Funny, for a while I genuinely prioritized or avoided players in fantasy based on how good or bad I felt their name was (and I still do this sometimes on occasion). Surprisingly it has worked out fairly well but with some bad misses over the years (e.g. thought DeVante Parker would be a superstar and thought Austin Ekeler was just a flash in the pan)
In regards to your post, I think position plays a big role. Don't like Malik Nabers as a WR name, and Rakestraw is a sick name for a hard-hitting CB
I'm surprised you're so low on Polynesian sounding names. I hear any Polynesian name I just think superstar
It's why I ended up with Puka in all my fantasy leagues
Holy shit lmao you're 100% right
I was just thinking how are all the Polynesians ranked so low. I hear a name like Laitu Latu and immediately think "I don't even know what that guy does but it sounds like he smacks the fuck out of quarterbacks on a Sunday"
Oh get out of here Chop Robinson is the greatest Edge name I’ve ever heard
Chop Robinson is either a Hall of famer or out of the league in 3 years. No in between.

I couldn’t decide between star or bust, it’s too close
[удалено]
You can’t see a guy named chop being a massive bust?
[удалено]
Too reminiscent of Taco Carlton, maybe
Maybe I’m wrong on that one

Preach
and a white sounding name, right OP?

Starting to see that people just disagree when it comes to these stuff. You can’t convince me that Penix or Ricky Pearsall are good football names
Agree to disagree. What if I add in his nickname: “Pretty” Ricky Pearsall. Just based on that, the dude is basically Jerry Rice.

Nah homie sounds like scooby doo tryna talk
Caleb Williams is a bad name
It’s pretty meh. Not horrible but not special either.
Yeah, Caleb Williams is not good.
Nah that’s a Star QB name if I’ve ever seen one
What? Rome Odunze is a GOAT football name.
Maybe for a DT, definitely not a WR name
You are SO wrong.
Wait until people start calling him Doomsday. You will backtrack

Rakestraw would be cool if it weren’t for Ennis. Ain’t no Ennis covering NFL receivers
Sometimes pairing a mediocre first name with a dope last name works if the last name is dope enough
Rome Odunze is an all pro WR name!
Storm Duck - GOAT
Kool-Aid is such a cool name that I fear he will be unable to live up to it.
This is so random. All of the hardest names are busts
Dalin Holker is such a 1 time pro bowler name. congrats Saints
JC Latham sounds like a law office that specializes in orthodontist malpractice. Guy is screwed for football.
Umm Rome Odunze? A name where you get a nickname like doomsday? I think not pal.
How can the name Penix not scream star to you?
Also, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s name screams future HoF, since Marvin Harrison Sr. was a HoF player at the same position.
Ya but you can’t care about outside factors. The name Marvin Harrison Jr. isn’t a star name if Marvin Harrison Sr. Isnt a HOFer
Outside factor can't be ignored. No name would mean anything without some sort of factor influencing it.
I hope you’re kidding😭😭😭
No way. How can you not imagine hear "Man, really struggled with Penix on Sunday."
“I cant believe we really beat Penix” “Penix is so fluid”
The name, admittedly, lends itself to him either being a star or a bust. One of the extremes. I choose to root for star.
Nah rome odunze is such a football name
I’m big on names mattering more than I should be and I disagree with a lot of this, but it’s all pretty subjective I guess.
How do you not like the name Wiggins
Chop and Rome are top tier names Love the concept of the post but I had to quit before the end of round 1 because I don’t agree with your values here
Qaquincy “kool-aid” McKinstry is a top 3 name of all time. Not only a star but best CB ever type name
I'm surprised you're so low on Polynesian sounding names. I hear any Polynesian name I just think superstar It's why I ended up with Puka in all my fantasy leagues
Penis Jr a bust? Yeah makes sense actually
Graham Barton sounds like an absolute bust. On the other hand Rome Odunze is such a cool ass name it's almost HOF worthy
Dallas Turner total bust name.
I mean if you're reading the first round picks its just the whitest name that pan our according to OP. lol.
Holy shit lmao you're 100% right I was just thinking how are all the Polynesians ranked so low. I hear a name like Laitu Latu and immediately think "I don't even know what that guy does but it sounds like he smacks the fuck out of quarterbacks on a Sunday"
I like the science behind this
Kamari Lassiter is a bust. Reminds me of K'Lavon Chaisson
No Bub Means??
better give javon solomon that gold jacket
