Mike Mayock's Post-Combine Position Rankings

I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at NFL.com analyst Mike Mayock's latest player rankings at each position. As you will see, Mayock has altered his positions quite a bit from his previous update before the combine. So for all of you who say the combine doesn't really mean that much, I ask, why did Mayock switch his board up so much?
