Super Bowl teams recruiting rankings (2.3 v. 2.4 stars)

How each Super Bowl 2015 starter was rated as a high school recruit

The recruiting profile of both teams is similar. Seattle's starting lineup had an average star rating of 2.4 as high school prospects, and New England's had 2.3. (Full ratings below, via the 247Sports Composite.)

Neither team boasts a former five-star recruit in its two-deep, and both have four former four-stars. Seattle has 11 former three-stars, while New England has nine. This isn't that surprising, as five-stars make up less than 1 percent of all FBS/FCS recruits, four-stars less than 10 percent, and three-stars roughly 37 percent. About 55 percent are rated two-stars or unrated.
