When you are drafting a player with a top 5 pick in the NFL draft you want to be sure of your pick. So, how do you know that a pick is a sure one? I break it down into the following five categories: production, athleticism/size, tape, character, and fit. If a player checks all five boxes they are worthy of a top five pick.
Production
You should notice right away that there are three schools listed. This will need to be addressed, but I’ll save that for my character section.
