Still not started stacking the big board yet but thought I'd put out some top 10s.

I've joined nickels, safeties and CBs together for DBs so am doing 20 rather than 10.
I'm doing all OL together so also doing 20 rather than 10.
For both will articulate where I think they fit.
I'm gonna do 16 WRs just because... Actually it's 16 because I just emptied all my day 2 guys into the rankings and didn't want to leave anyone out...

N.B. LBs and TEs are top 10s but for full transparency, I've only got through 10 guys. DL I've graded 12 and QBs I've graded 11.

If someone you rate highly doesn't appear in these position rankings... let me know! Either I've missed someone who I should be interested in or I massively disagree with you on how we feel about a player and that's interesting too...

How many first round grades do you have at this stage?
Click to expand...

22 solid 1st round grades
an additional 7 with late 1st grades
another 7 after that with early 2nd grades - the only guy from this group I could see us picking in the 1st round is Kingsley Suamataia... and these groups also do not include Jordan Morgan who may well be in play (but I'm not into as a 1st rounder)

but 22 guys (including 2 QBs - which helps because there's likely at least 4 QBs to be taken before we pick)
literally just been doing a bunch of mock draft sims to see how often one of those 22 falls to 30 - seems to happen most times that 1 of those guys fall... but it really is normally just 1 (if any), 2 at most

the three most common names that fall in my top 22 on PFN are: Cooper DeJean, Graham Barton and Tyler Guyton
and on PFF if anyone falls (which doesnt happen often), it's Adonai Mitchell

which made me curious about actual mock drafters

in DJ's most recent mock, 20 were gone and the ravens got Dejean (with Adonai Mitchell available)
in Brugler's most recent mock, all 22 were gone and the Ravens traded out of the pick with the panthers and pick Suamataia at 33
in zierlein's most recent mock, all 22 were gone and the ravens got Jordan Morgan
in matt miller's most recent mock, all 22 were gone and the ravens got Ladd McConkey
in kiper's most recent mock, 20 were gone and the ravens got Mims (with Adonai Mitchell available)
in edholm's most recent mock, 21 were gone and the ravens got Guyton
in bucky's most recent mock, 19 were gone and the ravens got Guyton (with Wiggins and Adonai Mitchell available)

feels like it's gonna be that kind of a draft where we get 1 guy to fall if we're lucky
but really hard to work out who that guy is - dejean's a popular name right now to drop to us, but i bet you he goes much higher in mocks once he blows up his pro day next week

Seems like we're pretty close. As of now, I ended up with 23 firm 1st round grades and that includes all 4 QBs - largely adjusted for positional value. For me, that indicates an okay draft. I've had as low as 18 in recent years so definitely better than some of the hell classes we've had to deal with.

it's complicated by the late 1st guys on my board
but i definitely think the top of this class runs much deeper than last year's by comparison
but true 1st round grades are pretty close (although hard to say for sure because my board from last year is lost but i had about 20 first round grades in 2022)
