NFL draft 2017 rankings: Best players available by position - Sports Illustrated (original) (raw)
2017 NFL draft rankings: Top prospects by position /
The draft process began months ago, almost before the 2016 event wrapped. Over the summer we compiled a watch list of between 300 and 400 players who could be on the ’17 draft radar. Then we added names when any potential prospects arrive a bit out of nowhere. The following positional rankings for this year’s draft class lay the foundation for our coverage leading up to the first round on April 27.
With the draft fast approaching, this is one final look at where each position group stands.
