The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Taven Bryan (age 22.1 at draft) as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #75 (range #49-#101, 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: Sheldon Rankins (Starter), Kenny Clark (Starter), Andrew Billings (Bust). Ceiling is Sheldon Rankins (Starter); floor is Maliek Collins (Starter). The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #28 and the model won't take him before #75 — a 47-spot markdown. The 47-spot markdown rests on thin verified signal rather than a named flaw — the model hasn't seen enough yet to match the room's conviction.
Draftanomics projects Kentavius Street (age 22.0 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #211 (range #191-#231, wide band). Bust probability sits at 65% — scary. The comp set is strong: 5 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Hassan Ridgeway (Starter), Jonathan Bullard (Starter), Sheldon Day (Starter). Ceiling is Maliek Collins (Starter); floor is Matthew Ioannidis (Starter). Drafted #128 by SFO in 2018 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #116 and the model won't take him before #211 — a 95-spot markdown. The discount is earned — missed entire rookie season leads the case against.
Draftanomics projects Maurice Hurst Jr. (age 23.0 at draft) as a first-round pick at #19 (range #1-#45, 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: Sheldon Rankins (Starter), Kenny Clark (Starter), Andrew Billings (Bust). Ceiling is Sheldon Rankins (Starter); floor is Jonathan Bullard (Starter). No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured. The call is a hold at slot: the model's #19 sits within 9 spots of the room's #28 — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.
