Running 2017 NFL Draft thread

Because it is done by a bunch of guy without NFL experience watching tape at home. Before a few years ago, they didn't even have the All-22 and I am not sure they do use the All-22 now. They do HALFTIME analysis off their TVs. The rating system is completely arbitrary with no mathematical basis, just one guy's opinion of whether a player should get a plus 1/2 point for a play. There is no attempt made to correlate their ratings system to actual results, like some of the math based ones. They have no idea what each player's responsibility was on any play, yet PFF thinks it can tell whether a guard or a nose tackle did well on a play. Their rating system is utter horseshit.

Ohio State's JT Barrett staying.

An interesting note I saw was about Texas A&M wide receiver Speedy Noil, who declared for the draft after being suspended multiple times this year:
