The NFL is obsessed with comparisons, historical data and trends—especially in team-building and drafting. Good scouts can tell you how many quarterbacks under 6'2" have succeeded in the NFL, the round in which the most sleepers come from and why a three-cone drill is so important to cornerback play. They will also tell you that strong safeties aren't drafted in the top 10.
That line—"You don't have a box safety in the top 10"—has been said or texted to me many times in this draft process because of LSU safety Jamal Adams.
