He is beloved by not only his country but also the world. He gives fans what they want every

Dybantsa, SF, BYU 6'9" - 210 lbs Dybantsa is the no doubt, number 1 pick this year in the same way Cooper Flagg was last year.

C/O to talksport.com I have been covering the NFL Draft process and the Prospects involved for over 5 years now and in that time I have kept expansive spreadsheets in ranking every prospect based on their athletic ability, position skill, future potential and basement floor as a pro.
