Consider this thread as a guide to NFL draft guides. What do you think are best? Please include the price in your review.
One of the one's that I'm most interested in is PFF NFL draft scouting. People think that I hate PFF but that's simply not the case. There is no way I'm going to watch every college football game(if that's even possible) so their opinions of college players mean a lot more to me than their pro coverage. When they rate players on every play do they weigh their ranking based on the level of competition? Be it the team they are playing against or the specific player? Also, as near as I can tell the least expensive option is purchasing PFF Edge to get their draft guide for $40. Is that the case or is there a way to purchase just the draft guide a la carte?
One of my favorite people in the industry is Dane Brugler. What are people's thoughts on his draft guide? Kyle Crabtree is another favorite. I assume we'll get a lot of thumbs up for Matt Waldman as well and he's been a wonderful voice on the subject for years and years.
This thread isn't really a "rank'em" thread, it's more about comparing the costs and relative strengths and weaknesses of each. There is a great deal of hard work put into all of them, but based on price I might be looking to purchase 3 that I've never tried if they get great reviews here instead of one expensive guide. The last thing this thread is for is bashing someone for any of the content that they are selling. A great deal of time and effort is put into all of them I am sure. If you have bought more than one in the past and have a direct comparison between the analysis in one when compared to another that would especially be appreciated. This last month before the draft is always one of the slowest. Not sure, but the NFL draft weekend may be the single weekend I look forward to more than any other. It blows both Christmas and Thanksgiving out of the water.
