Obviously this is all highly subjective and very much subject to change, however there is some value into knowing what positions should be of strength in 2013. Since we don't have enough picks (without trading far back) to fill all our holes it helps to "peak" forward. So here is a sneak peak at the top 100 players available heading into the college year (obviously will change based on performance). Please blame my "boneheaded" programming skills for designing my database with a mandatory two letter position entry (so DS = Safety, and OC = Center). Of course many of these juniors, will not come out.
