This is to be used as reference for all future NFL prospect grades. They loosely correspond to where I think the player should go in the draft. Positional value is factored in.
1-5: These players are generational talents, and are sure to be starters and likely stars barring injury. These are the types who teams can build around.
6-20: These players are very rare, and either possess unquestionable upside OR very high floors. They should be locks to be regulars and have a chance to be stars.
21-40: These players are rare, and are similar to the players rated 6-20 but have slightly lower ceilings or floors. They still should be expected to become regulars and occasionally stars.
41-96: These players are good, and should be at worst expected to be role players. They have good chances to be regulars and slim chances to be stars.
97-160: These players should at worst end up somewhere on special teams, and usually are either developmental guys or role players. They should not be expected to be immediate impact players but sometimes are. Finding a star here is very rare but starters can be found.
161-256: These players are usually roster fillers. They may play on special teams, and can be even farther off developmental prospects. They are rarely starters and almost never develop into stars.
257+: These players will be lucky to make a team, and barring miraculous situations will not start or star.
