Sorry if this has already been done (I did perform word searches and go thru 16 pages of old threads (which was interesting to see who we all thought was hot shit last year and you barely heard their names this yer)). Anyway, I used to LOVE nfldraftscout.com until stupid CBS took them over. Walter's site I like just for the mocks. But what sites should I go to to read really good individual analysis and draft evaluations?
Scott Wright's nfldraftcountdown.com is one I've been using for the last 2 years. Some of his evaluations aren't there yet, but I assume they'll be up soon... Scout.com also use to break down draft prospects' positives and negatives, but that was a few years ago. I think they just rank them now...
Sideline Scouting is quickly becoming a favorite of mine, Walterfootball.com is also pretty good If you want like a "fan perspective" check out draftdebacled.com, its mostly just other fans but it has lots of different big boards, team needs, mocks, etc If you have the benefit of ESPN insider, you can get scouting reports on most of the players. But you have to consider its ESPN and the rankings could look stupid
I really like Nfldraftcountdown.com I use to use Nfldraftforecast.com or something similar to that but the past few years that site hasnt existed.
nflsoup seems to have decent scouting reports, but the mocks and rankings I think are a little out of date. I do enjoy reading the scouting reports though.
Sidelinescouting.com and Draftscout are all I really go to regularly. For Draftscout I use their older site, I don't like the way their CBSsports site is set up.
Agreed. I didn't know you had the option to use the old site. Do I need to buy a membership again to use the old site?
Nope, just google a player's name and put draftscout after it. It brings up the old site which they update just the same as the CBS one. Here's the link: http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/players.php?genpos=QB&draftyear=2011&sortorder=tsxpos&order=ASC
You may now be my most favorite poster! LOL! I used to live on that site. I still remember the free memberships I would get when I bitched about their servers crashing on draft day.
nfldraftcountdown is not good. I used to think so until I saw other sites and now I think Scott Wright is full of himself.
So what else do you recommend? Because I was about to give that draft countdown site a shot tomorrow.
Countdown is weak. It's all one guy's opinion and the people on their MB follow it like gospel. And there's no excuse for a site with such a following to get away with putting up scouting reports so late.
http://drafttek.com/ One of the better sites IMO even though some picks are a bit odd. Usually goes to about 7 Rounds when complete.
I like drafttek a lot because you get different mocks pretty much daily. its fun to see the different possibilities.
Screw that draftek crap. If I wanted a computer to tell me about prospects I'd just import the class from NCAA into madden.
Ehh, I've used Scott Wright's site the past 2 years mainly for Senior Bowl coverage, occasionally reading his player evaluations. I use to frequent WalterFootball, but I really don't care for his "evaluations"(too basic). Not really an expert on in-depth draft sites, still searching for one I'm thoroughly satisfied with...
Same its definitely awesome, I like the sim mock too you can edit all the needs and the draft changes significantly.
