2018 NFL Draft Scouting Reports

Hey fellow Steelers Fans,

I would like to share with you my 30 page NFL Draft prospect scouting report pdf.  I spend quite a bit of time on different draft websites, doing mock drafts, watching tons of college football etc... So this document is a compilation of spider plots from https://www.mockdraftable.com/, pSPARQ ratings from https://3sigmaathlete.com/rankings/, scouting reports from http://walterfootball.com/index.php, player comparisons from various sources including myself and lastly the player rankings by position, all of which are how I view the prospects.  Feel free to save a copy of the pdf and review it over the next few days before the draft.  I've printed a few copies (11"x17") to have handy around the house.  Discussions are welcome although I may not be very active in posting.  I always appreciate everyone's input and will read your posts.  Thanks and Go Steelers!

Very nice. What percentage of your grading relies on your own game evaluation?

I'd say I watch about 50 or so college games per year plus I watch another 30-40 individual player Youtube highlight videos to get a better feel of impact plays and players.  My ratings will be very similar to a composite board (I'm no expert) but there's always a few players that stand out to me that have a 2-3 round grade and I think they kind of suck and vice versa.  You can see from the pdf some of the Walterfootball projections and how they differ from my ratings.  To answer your question I might change 15% up or down based on my own evaluation.  So much of my ratings rely on a player going to a system that they will excel in, which is definitely not always the case.  A lot of it is just me believing in a player too.

One player we agree on is Braden Smith. Somehow I see him being an Eagle.
