Mel Kiper updates Big Board Top 25 after NFL Combine, Pro Days
Mel Kiper updated his Big Board Top 25 after the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine and a bevy of Pro Days changed things around. It’s been awhile since Kiper last provided an update, so there are some big changes within his rankings.
“This is my first update since before the combine, so there are a few prospects who are rising and a few others who dropped,” wrote Kiper. “Combine workouts are great to see testing numbers and to confirm what you see on film, but be wary of prospects whose tape doesn’t match their workouts. That’s how teams get in trouble, drafting potential over a combination of production and ceiling.”
Similar to his recent Big Board updates, Kiper is keeping Michigan star Aidan Hutchinson at the top of his board. However, one of the biggest risers in Kiper’s rankings is Hutchinson’s teammate — safety Daxton Hill. After not being ranked in the Top 25 in Kiper’s last iteration, Hill rocketed up to No. 13 this time around.
