And you say they project to be 2nd liners, but I disagree it's determined on how well their development goes.
It's just a personal opinion, but I think McNeil has a high potential to bust. He does have size, but from what I've seen he seems to be a similar type of prospect as Nemisz. It seems a little redundant to get the same type of player when it looks like Nemisz might top out at David Moss' level.

What I mean by projecting to be 2nd liners, they don't have that special thing that some prospects have that elevates them from being just average. RHN is probably the only one in the draft that has that special something and even he doesn't look like a star prospect. That's not to say that the lot of them are bad, they just don't have anything that really separates them from the rest. That's why I think it'll come down to who develops the prospects best because there's not really anything that separates anyone in the group from 10-25.
