Let There Be Light! 3 ROUNDS OF UNBIASED PROSPECT RANKINGS!

Nfldraft_medium

via www.topsportsreport.com

This is my second installment of my "Let There Be Light" analysis with updated rankings...enjoy...

You've got to get second opinions to find out who's really good and who's being hyped. Well, in order to do this, I'm going to average the positions (from SBNation, NFL, CBS, Walterfootball & Draftek) for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd round prospects to get UNBIASED RANKINGS. NOTE: If a player was never mentioned in the top 84 of ANY big board, I left him out to save myself work...so the players listed below showed up in someone's top 84...if your favorite player was left off this list, it's because he's in NOBODY'S TOP 84...

Shall we begin? So, if we rank these guys in order of their average:

There it is you guys...what you make of it is up to you...

BTW - you may see some high numbers repeated in columns toward the end (i.e. 140 & 200), because the draft board only went up to that number. Last time, I used hypens and discarded it, but that scewed the averages down. By putting the highest number, it's more accurate - if anything the prospects with 140s/200s in a column would have higher averages than they do above.

Once again, a shout out to ma'man, Shazier, for coming in at the 20th highest average - exactly where we pick...
