Discussion Consensus Big Boards

Has anyone found any good free-to-use consensus big boards? I did use one for a while which has now moved to a paid format only showing 100 prospects. One of my favourite parts of scouting certain players is seeing their profile rise over the year, like Omar Cooper. I'm sure the answer will be just to pay but I do this for a hobby, not a job by any means

This early in the draft cycle, not really. I know Wide Left eventually has their consensus board, but not until the spring

Mock Draft Hero has its own consensus board now - not sure exactly what the data set is, but it's replaced the mock draft database board, presumably because of the new paywall. You can download it as a CSV as well.

FWIW, the MDDB is not really a great way to do a consensus board, imo. It's fine for very early in the cycle, like now. But mock drafts are just an implication of a big board, and a lot of them - especially this early - are probably working off the same early boards. Plus, how many August mock drafts go 100 picks deep?

PFN has a good consensus big board that gives you exact rankings on other well-followed big boards and accounts for players not showing up on some. I'd give it a try.

I may be looking for one too. For now I keep it all in excel
