Now that we’re into July, it’s about time that I finally post a big board and some player rankings. This is later in the process than I usually post my summer big board 1.0, but with my focus being largely on the offensive line as part of Blue Chip’s scouting department, it took longer for me to get a feeling for the other positions in this year’s class.
The class is stronger at positions such as QB, EDGE and running back, but the offensive line class is lacking star power. One thing remains the same regarding the NFL draft- a lot can change. Nothing is ever set in stone, and it’s only July.
Here are my top 50 for the summer to this point as well as my positional rankings. Just a reminder that if you don’t see a player in my big board or my rankings, it simply means I haven’t gotten to them yet.
