Top 5 draft prospects by position

We are still in the midst of pro days, so you'll see some movement on these rankings based on performances in that setting. That said, it's more tweaking than big shifts at this point. But remember, there are some signifcant names here who will be testing for scouts for the first time in that setting.

To give you a better sense of depth beyond the usual Big Board, this list consists of the top five prospects by position for the 2012 NFL draft. (As a note: Two players on this list don't have team logos in the system, which is why those spots are blank. Their teams are North Alabama and Western Missouri State.)
