Zach Hicks Pre-Combine Top 100 Big Board

The NFL Scouting Combine is upon us as teams and draft evaluators get another piece to their scouting puzzle. While we will know more about these prospects after the combine, I wanted to give you all a quick look where I am in regards to my overall grades this draft season. These grades are far from final as interviews, the combine, and final film grades will give a better picture of my final thoughts on these players.

As of right now, here is how I would rank this 2020 NFL Draft class. One thing to note is that this big board does not include positional value. This is simply where I rank players with how confident I am in their ability to reach their potential. With that said, here is my Pre-Combine Top 100 Big Board:
