nfl draft big board
By Simon Carroll
Over the last few months The Touchdown NFL Draft team have spent hours watching tape and taking notes. I personally watched film of 309 different prospects, culminating in me finally releasing my big board – a list of my top 100 prospects in this year’s draft class.
There are no grades. I’m not a General Manager, and assigning arbitrary numbers to prospects who have never stepped onto an NFL field seems a bit presumptuous on my part. Instead, this list is built from a blend of talent evaluation and personal opinion – I’ve not been shy in moving ‘my guys’ up the board, often against the consensus opinion of the NFL Draft community. I’ve also paid zero attention to positional value; just because I have a running back in the top five doesn’t mean I think he should be drafted there.
