Pro days are over and workouts are wrapping up so it’s time to finalize positional rankings. One of the most intriguing thing about the NFL Draft process is that each person values prospects differently. For NFL talent evaluators and draft analysts alike, the rankings at the top look similar, but opinions vary on mid-level players.
2011 NFL Draft Center Rankings: Kadar vs Dove
Here at Mocking the Draft we wanted to show you how our opinions differ. Dan Kadar and Jon Dove are breaking down each position giving you their top 10 in each. Make sure to check out our scouting report page to get full reports on some of the prospects. Also don’t hesitate to leave some feedback about our rankings or maybe even your own.
The offensive line is an interesting position to evaluate because there are versatile players. Each evaluator has a thought on where specific players may fit the best and this is shown in our rankings. You will notice that I have Rodney Hudson ranked #1 and Dan doesn't have him ranked in his top 10. This isn't because Dan doesn't feel Hudson is a good player it is because he rated him as a guard. I personally feel that Hudson's future is at center and that is where I ranked him.
The center class is weak with little high end talent and limited depth. We could see as little as 5 centers selected in the 2011 NFL draft.
