Relative grades look OK to me.
I wouldn't know...what do those grades mean? Such a narrow band

The "band" ain't narrow, it's essentially logarithmic. 5.9-6.0 is a lock to be drafted. 5.0-5.1 is marginal. <5.0 is very unlikely (Shittu excepted....). :)

It looks like the "grades" go from 5.00 upwards - possibly open ended, possibly nominally to 10 though the highest I saw were a couple of 7s. They seem to have only graded folks invited to the combine.
The link is above.
These grades do seem to be kind of lograithmic. I only found a couple of guys over 7, and they were substantially over 7: Myles Jack (UCLA), Laremy Tunsil (Mississippi), and DeForest Buckner (Oregon). Probably first rounder-ish were 6s, almost everybody in the 5s.
