Post by: Terrie1959 on March 21, 2011, 03:45:37 PM
Tier rankings is a tool used by decision makers come draft day to keep them from reaching on need over talent. It allows them to stay focused on the best prospects available, easily cluing them in on just how much of a talent drop there would be between the best player on their board and the best player at the position(s) they need. Therefore, below is a look at the NFP’s rankings split up into tiers.

Tier 1 (Will become one of the premiere players at his position in the league)

WR A.J. Green: Georgia
CB Patrick Peterson: LSU
WR Julio Jones: Alabama

Tier 8 (Gifted talent with inconsistencies, boom or bust pick)


QB Jake Locker: Washington
QB Cameron Newton: Auburn
QB Ryan Mallett: Arkansas

The 3 big time QBs are in Tier 8.
Greg Mc. was not listed. That is kind of scarey. RTR!
