The public may never know what a real draft "Big Board" looks like, unless you count the leaked one by the Dallas Cowboys last season. However, "couch scouts" tend to invent their own ways to calculate the value of draft prospects. I have studied roughly 175 prospects this offseason and have formed my own board, similar to the one that the BGN community has put together.
Below is my "Big Board." The key word in that sentence is "my" and the board reflects no other opinion but my own. I know there will be plenty of debate over this feature and that is what is so special about this process. Everyone sees something different on tape or feels like they know more than the next guy. After putting 65 prospect profiles together and having studied several dozens more, I feel this is a full representation of my work and research.
These evaluations have been made with the acknowledgment of the Eagles "on-the-surface" philosophies as well as my own. You will see some players missing because I don't believe they are either a fit or a likely pick. There are also prospects on here that may be of no interest to the Eagles.
Enjoy and debate away!
