2011 NFL Draft Consensus Big Board

[KI Skins Fan]

Here is some information that I found interesting. It was compiled by Walter Cherepinsky on his site Walterfootball.com.

With Andrew Luck out of the draft, there is no consensus #1 pick at this time. There is also no consensus Top 5.

I tend to doubt that there will be a "no brainer" pick for us at #10. Perhaps trading down, if possible, and spreading the risk of making a mistake over more picks would make sense for the Skins because we'll have a lot of holes to fill, even after signing some Free Agents.

Walter Cherepinsky:

"I thought it would be interesting to combine some of the prominent 2011 NFL Draft Big Boards to form one consensus big board.

Below are the average big board positions of the top prospects in the 2011 NFL Draft. I looked at four different big boards: Mel Kiper (ESPN), Todd McShay (ESPN), Rob Rang (CBS) and Scott Wright's (DraftCountdown.com). I also wanted to include Chris Steuber's big board data, but I couldn't find it."
