Risk and opportunity flags

Top three concerns and top two upside signals from the model.

Marshon Lattimore
Risks
No major risks flagged.
Opportunities
  • Strong comp group
    4 of 5 closest comps with NFL outcomes became Starters or Franchise players: Eric Rowe, Ronald Darby, Bobby McCain (+1 more). The historical neighborhood overwhelmingly produced NFL contributors.
Fabian Moreau
Risks
  • Older prospect
    Age 23.0 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed.
Opportunities
  • Consensus says higher
    25 boards have him at mean rank #70; model has him #145 — a 75-spot fade. Analysts converging this much above the model is a tell that the model is undervaluing him.
  • Strong comp group
    4 of 5 closest comps with NFL outcomes became Starters or Franchise players: Bobby McCain, Eric Rowe, Trae Waynes (+1 more). The historical neighborhood overwhelmingly produced NFL contributors.

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Marshon Lattimore

Draftanomics projects Marshon Lattimore (age 20.9 at draft) as a first-round pick at #18 (range #1-#43, wide band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is strong: 4 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Eric Rowe (Franchise), Ronald Darby (Franchise), Bobby McCain (Starter). Ceiling is Eric Rowe (Franchise); floor is Bobby McCain (Starter). The call is a hold at slot: the model's #18 sits within 11 spots of the room's #7 — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.

Fabian Moreau

Draftanomics projects Fabian Moreau (age 23.0 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #145 (range #102-#188, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is strong: 4 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Bobby McCain (Starter), Eric Rowe (Franchise), Trae Waynes (Starter). Ceiling is Eric Rowe (Franchise); floor is Bobby McCain (Starter). Age 23.0 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #70 and the model won't take him before #145 — a 75-spot markdown. The discount is earned — older prospect leads the case against.
