How does a GM know if they are ready for the NFL draft?


NFL personnel departments spend the year putting together a draft board they'll largely use for only three days in April.They take hundreds of names, thousands of hours of evaluation, more than a little hearty debate, piles of airplane tickets, interviews, miles traveled to practices and games, and it's all tossed into a blender of sorts to find the line, the line between doing all of the due diligence that can be done and information overload. The tough part is few, if any, personnel executives in the NFL rose to the job without digging for and working through as much information about players as they could find. They like -- no they love -- information. They covet and cherish good information, and the success in getting it can often determine how a draft class looks three or four seasons after it was selected.

WR Drake London, potential top-10 NFL draft pick, feels 'stronger, faster,' but doesn't run 40 at pro day


Potential top-10 NFL draft pick Drake London did not run the 40-yard dash at his official pro day Friday morning. London, who broke his ankle in late October, participated in a handful of cone drills and situational passing routes with several NFL scouts on hand at USC. London amassed over 2,000 receiving yards in three years at USC, including a 1,000-yard season in just eight games before his injury last year. The former dual-sport athlete came into USC looking to play both basketball and football, but turned to football full time for the first time in his life ahead of his junior season.

It’s a busy time for third-year Carolina coach Matt Rhule and Fitterer, who is entering his second season as GM. But they’d rather be busy than the way the offseason has been the past two years with the COVID-19 pandemic turning pre-draft preparation into virtual visits and phone calls.

NFL draft: Which teams have gotten the best value since 2012? We rank all 32


No team has gotten more value out of the NFL draft over the past decade than the Seattle Seahawks, thanks to an elite 2012 class and no team has drafted less value than the New York Jets, according to our study of the last 10 drafts. To evaluate the players taken in each of the past 10 NFL drafts (2012-2021), we used Approximate Value (AV) -- Pro Football Reference's method of measuring the performance of every NFL player. We took each player's career AV and measured it against a value based on where that player was taken in the NFL draft -- we're calling it Career Approximate Value Over Expected (CAVOE).
