Bad news, draft fans: The upcoming class doesn't look that great.

Maybe we've been spoiled with really strong draft classes in the 2010s—except for 2013, which was awful and we should all forget it happened—but this year's group doesn't stand out as on a level with the classes of this decade.

Why not?

The top three quarterbacks are still ranked inside my top 10 players, but so far none has elevated his game to a level of an Andrew Luck-type prospect. My early grades on the top three (Sam Darnold, Josh Rosen, Josh Allen) would fall behind the grades given to Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota, Jared Goff and Carson Wentz in previous drafts. The depth at quarterback is intriguing throughout the top seven or eight guys, but after that leaves much to be desired.

At every position group, except for running back and safety, there is not a top-tier player currently standing out. We can thank Saquon Barkley (RB, Penn State) and Minkah Fitzpatrick (S, Alabama) for saving the top end of the class.

There is still plenty of time for elite players to emerge. The offensive line and edge-rusher groups could look much better in February if key players like Connor Williams (Texas) and Arden Key (LSU) return to form after injuries. Compared to the 2017 offensive line class, this is an improvement, but it is overall a down year still.

How does this class break down? Below are my top 25 players overall and the top 10 players at each position.
