re: 2015 SEC football teams ranked by CBS NFL draft

Can you post a breakdown of how you calculated the scores? Would be helpful to actually know what I'm looking at. ..

I think you would get a more accurate result if we were to take it and weight certain positions more heavily,

Didn't really want to get into it.

In short, I do weight it by position. I used median salaries of NFL starters to determine weight. NFL teams spend about 20-25% of the total salaries for starters on offense on QBs. The QB's score is 20-25% of the offense's score, roughly.

In short, top 4 players were given a score higher than top 8, etc. 2014 Jrs. were considered slightly better than 2014 Sos. who were considered slightly better than 2014 Fr.

For example, as discussed above, I scored Fournette as an equal to Chubb because both are Top 4 RBs for 2018 according to CBS.

One problem was that no QB for Ole Miss was ranked. I used an average for the other SEC QBs for Ole Miss. That was it.

The numbers next to the team is basically meaningless except when compared to another team (higher is better). The ranking are only as good as CBS ranked them. Their ranking is probably about as good as it gets..
