I have an idea for a draft related podcast. You guys do all this work evaluating, I think it would be really interesting to do a post-mortem on prior drafts and see what you learn. Like your biggest hits I.e. players you liked more than consensus and how they did. Biggest disappointments and why they may have flopped. Biggest surprises, players performing better in the NFL than they did in college. It always surprises me how much deviation there is between NFL and college performance- be interesting to look at some examples and try to understand what sort of things cause that. Maybe after you’ve done your evals for this draft (just to put it in perspective).
I love these, they've helped me understand so much more about what scouts are interested in with players.
I listen to Gregg's podcast with Daniel Jeremiah and it was interesting that he's adamant Arvell Reese isn't best at linebacker. Since that's so opposed to both of your reads on him, it would be interesting to know what you think Jeremiah values against what you guys do?
Oli it would be great in these scouting reports if you could add a line outlining three teams the prospects fits with most scheme wise, and three teams they don't - would help me as a fan understand potential landing spots/type of player I think
This is a treasure trove man. Keep up the excellent work.

I like it. We've had multiple requests for this and we'll definitely get to it

Imagine it will be included already but a generic outline highlighting key attributes needed to succeed at each position.
And details on the scheme that the draft prospect currently plays within (square peg round hole for drafting team, Hello Cincy)

Scheme fits with ideal landing spots will be in there!
