I wonder how big their "bucket" is when it comes to grouping talent for BPA?

In the first round, my guess is that the round is grouped AT LEAST into thirds. Top ten, middle ten, bottom third. Finding someone as BPA from your general position is probably pretty easy unless you only judge 10 guys as 1st round talent which I don't think is the case in this draft class.

However, in lower rounds, how closely do you think they group folks? By round? By half round (top half 3rd round, bottom half 3rd round)? By third of a round still?

Your comment of grading someone 10 slots later than your pick. I just wonder how closely the NFL teams grade folks.

Cheers,
