How do you separate 1 guy from another when you have dozens on the board, schemes to consider, health and personality issues, etc.? The moving around the draft board is more for Mel Kiper; the scouts are trying to help sort out their boards for fit. You don't recruit kids without looking at them, measuring them (otherwise, you believe Boat is 6' tall), and figuring out how they'd fit on your team both from a scheme perspective and in locker room. Besides, few kids play NFL ready talent, so the fact that a CB shut down a WR who cant make a practice squad is not entirely helpful. No team is evaluating players purely on film - this ain't 1954
