NFL draft rankings 2017: Comparing Todd McShay and Mike Mayock

Earlier today we looked at Mike Mayock’s 2017 NFL Draft position rankings. Not long after that post, Todd McShay released his latest 2017 NFL Draft position rankings (In$ider). For this post we are going to look at where there is a discrepancy between the rankings of Mayock and McShay in places of note to the Titans.

At receiver, Mayock has JuJu Smith-Schuster at 8 while Mayock has him at 5. I didn’t watch JuJu play that much at USC, but I was very impressed by what I did see. If Jon Robinson is able to swing a deal to get a second round pick and Smith-Schuster is the first receiver he picks, I will be good with that.

The biggest discrepancy is at corner. There rankings are all over the place there. Here is what Mike Mayock has at corner:

1. Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State 2. Marlon Humphrey, Alabama 3. Kevin King, Washington 4. Gareon Conley, Ohio State 5. Fabian Moreau, UCLA

Here is what McShay has:

1. Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State* 2. Tre'Davious White, LSU 3. Quincy Wilson, Florida* 4. Teez Tabor, Florida* 5. Jourdan Lewis, Michigan 6. Marlon Humphrey, Alabama* 7. Adoree' Jackson, USC* 8. Gareon Conley, Ohio State* 9. Chidobe Awuzie, Colorado 10. Kevin King, Washington

So you have Lattimore as the consensus #1, but it gets a little crazy after that. Mayock has Humphrey at 2 while McShay has him at 6. You probably all know that I am an Alabama fan, but I am not that high on Humphrey.

Then you have Kevin King. 3 for Mayock but 10 for McShay. Tre’Davious White is 2 for McShay and not even on Mayock’s board. McShay also still likes the Florida corners while Mayock has taken them off his list. I will have to side with Mayock there.

Now if only we could get Jon Robinson’s rankings for these guys....
