2010 Positional Rankings As usual, the rankings below are based on a player's body of work while in college, the postseason all-star games, and the Combine. While many people put a lot of weight on a players' performance in Indianapolis, I simply use it as a means of differentiating between two players I may have ranked very closely together. If I've got a similar grade on two wide receivers, but player A runs a 4.40 40 yard dash, and player B a 4.5, I'm going to give the nod to player A.
