It would be great if every NFL draft prospect were an easy book to read in the evaluation process. Some are; there are many players whose draft evals are pretty cut and dry, like an English professor reading “Spot’s First Easter.”
There are some prospects every year where it feels like the book is written in a different language in every chapter. No amount of film study, interviews or projective analysis reads definitively or cleanly. These are players who might look like a fantastic future NFL player from one viewpoint but not worthy of anywhere close to that level of draft love from another.
