I was kind of wondering how you guys come about your prospects list. You know, some draft rituals for picking players. I like to get one of those Draft mags - pro football weekly is my fav. But, I really do most prospecting online the last few years. So every yr since Payton and Drew got here I would get the draft book and look at DBs, as we have always needed them. This is the system I use.
When I am looking for value picks, at Safeties/CBs, and NBs. I apply only one metric on the field of play. How many times they touch the football PBU, INTs, FF, and FR. So every year I mark off about 5,6 guys I think are being undervalued. I also consider yrs played , competition, his story etc. the same things you do with every prospect. This is very simple math to do in your head, as you look through the stats of DBs.
With some CBs, teams just stop throwing at them, so they have modest Ints and PBU, but those guys are found out about already, and #1 picks if they are that good. Over the years many on the list have made teams, and some even starters. It sniffed out Adebo last year. But I didn't even realize I had him checked off, when the Saints called his name. Till I started to look up the other draft picks. What do you guys do?
