- Offensive linemen, including tight ends, are probably the least risky positions to draft
- Wide receivers and running backs are the riskiest offensive position
- Quarterback is also pretty risky and those draftees are least likely to make an NFL roster
- Defensive ends take the longest to crack the starting lineup but otherwise the draftees are pretty successful
- Defensive tackles are the most risky defensive position
- Linebackers are fairly comparable to defensive ends except they tend to start earlier
- Corners tend to have lengthy careers but are about average when it comes to becoming starters
- Safeties are somewhat less risky than corners but are fairly comparable.
