SOOO HERE WE GO... According to Scott Wright's mock draft
http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/sub/rankings.html
4 of 42 WR prospects are white
13 of 26 QB's
0 of 28 RB's
2 of 9 FB's
13 of 26 TE's
16 of 35 OT's
10 of 23 OG's
6of 11 Centers
9 of 10 Punters
6 of 6 Kickers
3 of 37 Safetys
0 of 38 CB's
3 of 20 ILB's
4 of 32 DE's
4 of 28 OLB's
2 of 31 DT's
So about 95 of the 405 NFL Prospects are white this; represents 23.4% of the total number.
These results only come from the website listed above. I personally counted how many whites were under each category. I might have missedsome
Hispanics, Asians, ect. were not considered white (for example the TE Fassano from Notre Dame). The only reason being that i often times can not tell the difference between someone who is hispanic or black or mixed.
It is notable that it appears as though there are quite a few prospects that are not white and not black.
Today the NFL is around 70% black... Being that only 23% of the prospects from this websiteare white, this seems to represent the possibility that the NFL will become more black dominated this year.
About 1/3 33% of NBA prospects are white this year (conservative number). The NBA is around 78% black... Soon football replace basketball as America's most African American dominated sport.
I would love some commentary on these statistics
