For the the record I think you guys are nuts for doing rankings before combine but that's just me 

If you do all your rankings based solely on the combine that's not a great approach IMO.

I don't.  I use both but I'm not gonna bother scouting dudes who have no shot cause too slow or unathletic.  I also don't want to have any bias on a player based upon college tape.  Want to go in with the full picture when I start

You can still have a loose ranking set based off college work though. 

And by that measure, did you not bother ranking a guy like Orlando Brown?

I mean, I have a general idea from guys I've watched(which isn't many) but to actually rank them now seems like more work than it's worth.  Like if you have a list of guys where its more I like these 7-8 guys at this position,  that's one thing.... but to have a list from 1-100 overall mixing positions and tanking them or whatever is too much for me

 

no.  Offensive tackles and d tackles are kinda their own thing.  1.  I don't care how quick they can run a 40.  2.  a lot of the best ones have massively long arms which hinder bench press.  I learned this lesson early with Greg Robinson.

This is fair. It really sucks to have watched a lot of a guy and been really impressed, then he fails thresholds at the Combine by a miserably bad margin.

It's the first time I do it so we'll see.

I think it's good because now I know what I want to watch in the combine, I guess this will allow me to sort things out quicker. But we'll see.

I am relieved to not be obsessing over prospects at this point. I doubt I will have more than 30 guys on my board this year and that is mostly leftovers from last year for guys that didn't declare in 2019.

11 are RB's. And all 11 will be good because SirA likes them. 

There are actually a lot of good RBs in this class tbh
