The 2022 NFL Draft is now just two days away! While my final mock draft is in the works, I have one last piece of scouting-related content to offer you: my top 100 players! These players are ranked by grade, similarly to how NFL teams assemble their draft boards. Want to know this weekend if a player was good value or if he was a reach? Consult my big board! This draft has been said to be weak at the top, and while there might not be a prospect at the level of Trevor Lawrence or Chase Young, there are a few rock-solid prospects with Pro-Bowl potential and high floors nonetheless. This draft class is also very deep, in large part due to many players exercising their extra year of eligibility, serving us with essentially two senior classes in the mid-late rounds this year. As a result, I expect the players at the bottom of my top 100 to contribute as rookies or to develop into future starters. Without further ado, here are my top 100 players this year:
