The majority of pro days and workouts are wrapping up which means it is time to finalize our position rankings. One of the most intriguing thing about the NFL Draft process is that each person values the various prospects differently. The rankings at the top look different but when you look mid-level prospects opinions really vary. These facts are true for draft analysts but also true for NFL talent evaluators.

Here at Mocking the Draft we decided it might be a good idea to show you how our opinions differ. Dan Kadar and Jon Dove will be breaking down each position giving you their top 10. These rankings will give you a taste on how different draft boards may look inside NFL War Rooms.
Please check out our Scouting Report Page to get full reports on the respective prospects. Also don’t hesitate to leave some feedback about our rankings or maybe even your own.
The first position we’re ranking is the offensive tackles. This position is getting a lot of attention as teams are always on the look out for the next great tackle. The 2011 class is especially interesting because it lacks a sure fire top 10 prospect which leaves us with many prospects closely ranked. We could see as many as five tackles taken in the first round and several others in the second.
