Sporting News Names DPE Pre-Season All-American Punt Returner

Where would you put DPE on the All-time NU punt returner list? Off the top of my head, my top three:

1. Johnny Rodgers

2. DPE

3. Ameer Abdullah

4. DeJuan Groce

5. ??

Edited to include DeJuan Groce.

I would agree with this as of now. DPE will end up 1B or 2 by the time he is done IMO
Ha ha! How could I forget Groce? I'm going to edit my list to include Groce. But I do think Abdullah was a better punt returner than Groce. LINK /IMHO.

Maybe Eric Hagg in that #5 spot?

 
Sounds great, hope he delivers! Give credit to the wall of blockers too, gave him some decent seams to run thru. Would have to say, DPE was probably one of the best true frosh performer ever @ NE.

Ameer and Eric Hagg?

Neither of them hardly even returned punts in their careers.

Ameer made a name for himself as a returner his freshman year and everytime thereafter, throughout his career, Bo put him back there to return in any 'grunch' time: he was good at it.

As a KICK returner. He had 15 returns as a freshman for 7.1 yard average, and 16 as a sophomore for 13.1 yard average. 1 touchdown. Never returned another punt again.

 
I didn't think Riley wanted to use him much on returns since he is so vital on offense?
No way.

Not using a Pre-Season First Team All-American Punt Returner AT Punt Returner would be like Tim Beck hardly utilizing Pieron-El in the offense last season.....it'd be just plain stupid.
