Ladies and gentlemen, it’s finally NFL draft week.
After spending the last four months debating and studying the class with excruciating detail, it is finally set to unfold. No more bad comps or getting frustrated with mock drafts.
My final big board is going to be a tad different than most big boards. I will only be including players that I watched in full. That includes:
- 67 players
- Focused on positions the Vikings need. There are a lot of WR and CB, but no offensive lineman
- My overall film grade won’t always equate to where I would want the Vikings to take that player
Without further ado, here is my final big board for the 2023 NFL draft class.
