NFL Draft: ESPN South Jersey’s Top Day 2 Talent
PHILADELPHIA (973espn.com) - With the help of three former professional scouts, 973espn.com cobbled together a ranking of the top prospects available in the 2018 NFL Draft.
Each talent evaluator was asked to put together a top 100 and the rankings were compiled using a simple in-position rating of the talent. For instance, if one scout had six quarterbacks in his top 100, the top prospect received six points and so on down the line to get a consensus.
