The best draft research resources

Nolan Nawrocki's top 100 is now posted. IMO he's one of the more accurate draft analysts.

Disclaimer: Players are ranked according to the likelihood of their success in the NFL, not necessarily in the order Nawrocki believes they will be drafted.

Re: NFL.com draft tracker is now available...

This site has become very valuable as perhaps the best overall free resource.

From Combine stats, arm/hand length, videos, grades, and brief overviews -- one-stop-shopping is here.

Re: NFL.com draft tracker is now available...

I wonder who exactly is responsible at NFL.com for assigning those grades. Mayock?

 

For my fellow Draft Loonies, Fanatical FootBall Fiend has pulled in the first early Reports, from National FootBall Post, SideLine Scouting, Mocking The Draft, and a couple others:

- 2012 NFL FootBall Draft Scouting Reports

Wes Bunting tends to get an early leg up on the competition at NFP ~ this year's no different ~ and if history holds, both he and Draft InSider will start rolling out team by team reports in a couple weeks.

NFL Mocks provides nice early overviews of who might be prospect material, but I don't include them, at this point, because they're not really what I'd call Scouting Reports: just Profiles, really.

Pro FootBall Weekly rather stupidly all but hid their Reports, last year. I don't know how I missed them, as I looked. But they'll join my lineup, this year: I only include the Free Sites, of course. I'll be dropping Tool Box and Draft Bible, but plan on bringing back everyone else.

If anyone has any suggestions as to who I might add to the lineup, I'd be very gratefull: I progressed, from last March to December, from Interested, to Engaged, to Passionate, to Obsessed...to CONSUMED with this, which means that there are quite possibly LOTS of resources I haven't yet uncovered...

I really like the video section of:

Players | Draft Breakdown

They seem to focus on a player throughout the game, and not just few wow! highlight plays.
