re: 2015 SEC football teams ranked by CBS NFL draft

Is there any chance of finding this same analysis from prior years measured against the actual results from those years?

Anyone can rank a bunch of stats. But what are the rankings worth?

Well, he does rank draft eligible players from this year that I didn't include because it was meant to be one measure of talent for 2015 teams.

I could add them-- not going to-- to everyone else and it should somewhat be the 2014 version of this although it would have the benefit of hindsight-- some players who emerged this year would be ranked higher now than preseason.

The rankings are a step above ranking teams by recruiting class rank. While not flawless, recruiting ranking do tend to predict future success over time.
