Sy's Rankings Compiled

Joey in VA : 4/6/2018 3:02 pm
If Eric or Sy shoot me dead for this, I apologize in advance. I took his rankings thus far and made an overall list, see linky below. It's in Excel so it will start you on the Overall tab but you can look at OT, RB, WR and TE individually using the tabs at the bottom (they are not readily visible). If those dudes are OK with it, I will add to it and reshuffle as the rankings keep coming.

**I sorted by Overall grade first then position rank for some clarity where the grades are even.

**The "All Prospects" is hyperlinked to the BBI Draft section and the Position Names on each tab will take you to the write up on BBI with the in depth analysis from Sy'56. Since it's in Excel you have to hold CTRL as you click to open the linked page.

And a huge thanks again to Sy'56 for these, they are like football crack for me.
Overall Rankings - ( New Window )

Was thinking the same thing so great job!

Creating tiers was my goal ....
very nice...

are the heights and weights correct? They seem a little off? The spreadsheet lists Ronald Jones, running back, at 6'5" and 305 lbs. Even Brandon Jacobs would go Damn! if that kid is that big and a RB.
without trying to sound like a beggar being a chooser...  
Capt. Don : 4/6/2018 3:16 pm : link
would it be terribly difficult to add an overall # column so we could see who would land on or around our various draft picks based on Sy's rankings?

no worries if not. thanks again!

sure no problem.
that's good stuff  
Rocky369 : 4/6/2018 3:18 pm : link
Assuming you'll complete it along with Sy's updates. You've got a ready-made big board.
Thank you, Joey  
MadPlaid : 4/6/2018 3:19 pm : link
Really appreciate you assembling Sy's data this way. Pretty cool stuff.

It really will. I will probably have it up during the draft just to see how it aligns.

Great stuff Joey!
Fine with me  
Sy'56 : 4/6/2018 3:30 pm : link
....These grades are a guide. Things can subtly change over the next 3 weeks as this is the time of year I usually get more in depth information on medicals and off field stuff.
Thanks Joey  
gidiefor : Mod : 4/6/2018 3:31 pm : link
good stuff -- boy, Barkley's Sy ranking is like it's own Mount Olympus when you look at it against the others so far
Awesome.

I like it far better to see where a guy is ranked and then see where he's taken. So far if memory serves your track record on what you would have done far exceeded the Giants in recent seasons.
Great Job!  
SuperRonJohnson : 4/6/2018 3:37 pm : link
It's a go to important reference. Thank you.
you should be sticky

That's a low bar to clear...

That is very helpful Joey!

Yeah I risked exposing my name  
Joey in VA : 4/6/2018 4:20 pm : link
I mean if someone wants to come kill me, meh.

**Update - Ronald Jones has slimmed down from the erroneous 309 lbs to his correct weight.

**Update - I added overall ranking
lol

Wouldn't just looking at row number accomplish that?
This Is Great  
Trainmaster : 4/6/2018 4:59 pm : link
Very much appreciated.

I assume you plan on adding the other positions as the Sy's reviews come in.

I think this should be "sticky'd".
Nice work Joey!  
MTN-G-man : 4/6/2018 7:11 pm : link
I didn't see Nelson on the list though.
Well done

Thanks man  
slickwilly : 4/6/2018 10:17 pm : link
This will be great on draft night.

Maybe add a tab with Sy's definitions of the ratings? I always forget what they equate to. I saw this on the stickied Sy rankings thread so I think these are correct.

90+ Elite, All Pro, Franchise players
85+ Pro Bowlers, long time starters, among the best at their position eventually
80+ First round caliber talent, long time starters
75+ Day 2 prospects, starters/solid rotational contributors
72+ Rounds 4-5
67+ Rounds 6-7
65+ Priority UDFA
Draft Night

Can this be printed so I can make copies to give out at my draft party... I tried and it only printed one page

You can save the file locally I think but I can create a PDF from the final version and link that as well it will print easier that way.
Joey, great work...  
Gregorio : 4/7/2018 8:05 am : link
the transition from green to yellow in the Grade column is a nice touch. Was it intended as green means go, yellow caution, and red throw the f'n remote?
Good stuff!  
X : 4/7/2018 8:58 am : link
Thanks Joey!
first great job  
micky : 4/7/2018 11:54 am : link
second, am I missing something? And Sy ranks no Qb's at all?

He hasn't done all positions yet. This is just the positions he's done so far.
Thanks for your spreadsheet.

Hello Members,

This is why I appreciate BBI and folks like you, Sy, Dave_TE.

Kudos to intelligent and caring contributors.

If they don't go Barkley  
darren in pdx : 4/7/2018 4:27 pm : link
Michel is the RB I hope they can land, though going OL would be the bigger need pick in the 2nd.

But thanks for doing this, with all the talk about the QB's and Barkey/Chubb/Nelson I don't know much about the available WR's and secondary players.
Can we sticky this

**Update  
Joey in VA : 4/9/2018 12:23 pm : link
Added OG-C Rankings

Re-sorted Overall to include OG-C

Added Grade Key
Great job Joey

Seriously great work.

Give me about 5.
Update  
Joey in VA : 4/11/2018 11:46 am : link
** Added DL

** Added Edge Rushers

** Resorted Overall

I'm open to feedback on the Grade column and it's conditional formatting. I went with data bars and the basic stoplight coloring of Green to yellow to red but I don't love it. Any suggestions are welcome, except ones where I am told to : take a flying leap, go f myself, long walk off a short pier, get bent, eat sh-t, drop dead.
thanks poopsie

Really interested to see what happens when QBs and DBs are added.

+1, or at least sticky it after all grades are posted and definitely around drift day.
Oh, and thanks!

It is great of you to do this so you have my hearty thanks and appreciation. I will definitely be printing this out by the time the draft starts.
There is a link to it on Eric's stickied thread  
Joey in VA : 4/11/2018 9:41 pm : link
About Sy's page of lists. I will post updates there from here on out.
I think it does deserve a sticky
