The teams researched this class over a year ago. All they had to do is gather the scouts and rank them according to their criteria. That’s their secret sauce for breaking down a draft class.
I think I heard Dan say in a recent interview that they started with nearly 1000 players and eventually cut it down to 250 before the combine.
They pretty much know what group will be available to them at all their picks so I bet they have their board narrowed Dan to less than 50, give or take a dozen. But they have done research on every draft prospect plus all possible UDFA’s.
I’ve given up on trying to predict a draft because there’s 32 teams out there and they all have their own rankings and their own agenda.
