2022 NFL Draft Better-Than Team: Here are 20 prospects Pete Prisco likes more than the scouts do

Oklahoma linebacker Brian Asamoah captains Prisco's 2022 Better-Than Team

When Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Lavonte David was coming out of Nebraska, he was the captain of my 2012 Better-Than Team, my annual team made up of players I like more than the scouts do.

David impressed me on tape with his speed and ability to make plays, even though he was a smallish linebacker. Since then, David has become an NFL star, thanks mainly to that speed and his ability to track the football.

In putting together this year's Better-Than Team, I had flashbacks to David when a speedy, athletic linebacker who could go sideline-to-sideline kept showing up on tape. That player is Oklahoma linebacker Brian Asamoah.
