Thank you, I just did the Math (because Im slow like that) and by draft day (next Thursday), Im going to have released 400 names...I have 500.

So I guess on draft day (because I love you all) Ill be releasing 150 names to get to 500 instead of just 50.

But in the end you will have a 500 name big board from me, along with positional rankings, and X-Era's Draft Guide.

Re: Big Board-The Top 50

Hard to argue too much with your list! I'm not quite as high on Miller and Solder as you are.

I like you going out on a limb for Ellis! He looks to be a good one for sure!

Personally, I like Heyward more than Clayborn, but I am probably biased and wouldn't be able to tell if I were :)

I'm kind of surprised you still have Greg Jones in the top-50. His stock has dropped quite a bit with most sources online.

Anyways, thanks for shaking it up and I look forward to more.

Not being mean or anything but after the Top 150 I doubt many people know the players names or care very much.

I care. At least it gives me something to think about in terms of what positions we might be taking.

No offense taken, I go beyond 150 or even 250 for two reasons.

1. The Bills and many teams don't share my board (sadly) so I have to over rank the amount of players to try and ensure every draft pick that is made falls on my board somewhere. This doesnt always happen though.

2. I want to account for any and all UDFA's as well, so that when Buffalo signs QB Blake Bolles, people can go to my rankings and see he played at DII Northwest Missouri State and was my #28 ranked QB, and #412 on my Big Board.

Does Brandon Fusco crack the Big Board?

Re: Big Board-The Top 50

He does, he's not in top 100, but he is in the top 150. He's my #3 Center.

Do you believe he will get drafted and if so in what round?
