There is no such thing as a proven consensus board that we can use though. So even playing along which one do you take? I'll give you an example, there is a dude who hasn't been taken yet which one of the boards I've looked at has going in the late 2nd round. But I agree with the consensus here on that player, so while I find it interesting it doesn't move me to take said player. When am doing this, I am looking at my own rankings, then looking at 3 others I trust, and those 3 are wildly different from each other. So lets say that board is pushing a player that they feel should go in this round. Good chance the other board would disagree. So I'll go and watch that player.
Lets take Tuten. Some think he's a third rounder. Some think he's a 4th rounder. Some think he's 5th rounder. Depends on the board. Some boards would think you'd be nuts to take Tuten over some of the RBs who went after. Some think its smart.
So if you just take any board and use that as a guideline it would introduce some bias into the process including judging how good the pick was. Also if someone really trusts a board made by name that person, lets say DJ, or Kiper or scout.com that much, then just print it out and use it.
But I know from my own preferences on players, some boards would back me up big time and others would say I was a moron.
So I think let everyone beat to their own drum because speaking for myself there is not one board I trust as gospel. I tend to use boards more the deeper the draft goes. And even so I will watch some players before the pick and decide whether I agree with the takes or not.
Your idea of just listing players per position, to me that's fine as long as their is no grade or ranking of those players.
I think board consensus stuff is more on point for the first round, maybe top half of the 2nd. There is often much agreement albiet not full agreement on the top players. But once you get past that and take any board and compare it to another, they are often wildly divergent.
