Just because there are 32 picks in the first round doesn't necessarily mean there are 32 prospects with a first-round grade. That's where things can get tricky.
The grading scale used by our Scouting Department, for example, considers a prospect with a score of 8.0-8.4 as a Year 1 starter with a late 1st-2nd Round grade.
There are only 22 players on our current big board with a score of 8.0 or higher from our scouts. That's right in line with real NFL teams. Matt Miller of ESPN recently noted teams usually have around 15 players with first-round grades and it can vary by scouting department.
