Notes before the list:
Most of these players I have watched full games of. Some of the smaller school guys I have relied on videos I could dig up on Youtube or other sites. Most of the top 50 I have watched at least 3 full games of to get an idea on what they do.
There are some high profile guys that I have ranked low. This is sure to draw skepticism, but, I can't cater to the crowd or what the other draftnik's are saying, I have to go by my own unbiased evaluation. There is also some under the radar guys I have ranked higher than they are other places.

no disrespect but Tyrod Taylor and McElroy in there are a stretch, and way way too low for Brooks Reed.

McElroy is accurate and the smartest QB in the draft. Even if he is just a solid backup, that's solid value for the 3rd/4th rounds.
Taylor is underrated IMO. He's surprisingly accurate and he's got great athleticism within the pocket. I could see a Shanahan falling in love with him.
I like Reed, but I feel the late 2nd is what he is. Solid, productive football player but he's not going to wow you.

Von Miller- Not impressed at all. He has one move. And that's fly as fast as he can off the edge and try to beat the OT with speed. This worked in college but in the NFL he's going to have to bring a different move to the table. He also gets abused in the run game, he struggles mightily at the POA and takes plays off.
Blaine Gabbert- Hype machine. Played in a 1 read offense with simple terminology. He has a great arm, but his touch is lacking. He's inaccurate on deep throws and short throws. His pocket presence and decision making leaves a lot to be desired. He doesn't progress through reads quickly. The pure arm is intriguing but the flaws with him cast my doubts. He's your typical boom or bust type, and that's where 3rd rounders belong. There's no in between with him. He's either going to develop the other skills needed at the position or he's gonna fail miserably.

This board is probably closer to an actual teams board then one might think. I like how it's not the same as everyone else because really every teams is different. Great job man.
Two things though, obviously your very high on stanzi which is fine but he does not belong in the top twenty.
And I couldn't agree more about v. Miller. Your right he has one move which is wide around the tackle, he takes himself out of half the plays without even being blocked. He will take at least two- three years to develop into any type of consistent pass rusher.

I like that you've posted your rankings. It's refreshing to see some uniqueness.
Curious, Why so low on Bowers?

Yeah I have Bowers as a Middle 2nd rounder, I dunno, I watch the tape and he doesn't jump out at me. He's not particularly quick off the edge and I think at the NFL level he's going to be able to be game planned against. I still think he's a pretty good player, He's stout at the POA(point of attack) but I don't see the top 10 justification at all when I watch him.

Thanks for the kind words.
As for Stanzi, I just see a lot of things I like. Mechanically, he's the best QB in the draft. Footwork, pocket presence, release, all of it. I'm big on mechanics(course watching A. Smith for 6 years will do that to you, lol). I also love his intermediate throws. Some of the accuracy he displays on the intermediate routes just leave me in awe. He's got a better arm than most think and I really don't put much stock into workouts in shorts, which is why Stanzi is falling I think, after his poor combine workout.

All I will say is that it is a free country and you are allowed to "epeak" your opinion. That's all I have to say.

Wow what a different board... I can't say that I agree with all the rankings but I love that Cam Newton is where he should be #78!
I also, much like yourself, want Ponder, Dalton, Kap, or Stanzi... But not until the 2nd at earliest unless we trade down and get another 2nd this year not next.
I also noticed you have Titus Young above Jon Baldwin, what WR do you think we should target for our WCO in say the 4th with one of the extra picks ?
Good Job, putting something like this together would be fun but exhausting
