We all love mock drafts and big boards. There’s an entire industry around it and multiple businesses (like this on!) dedicated to covering the NFL draft 365 days per year.

And we love it.

But the media isn’t always right. And the art of being a media analyst is to own up when we’re wrong. Following a week of conversations (shout out Prime 47 and High Velocity) at the combine, we asked scouts to give us list of players the media is too high on and a list of players the media is too low on.

The results surprised us.

Below is our list of 10 players you might want to move up your board, and 10 players we think you’ll see falling down boards as the media catches up to NFL teams.
