Risk and opportunity flags

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

Max Scharping
Risks
  • Consensus skeptic
    8 boards place him at mean rank #85; model has him #41 — a 44-spot gap. When boards fade a player this hard, the model is usually the one missing something.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.
Phil Haynes
Risks
  • No athletic testing
    No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured.
Opportunities
  • Consensus says higher
    3 boards have him at mean rank #125; model has him #178 — a 53-spot fade. Analysts converging this much above the model is a tell that the model is undervaluing him.

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Max Scharping

Draftanomics projects Max Scharping as a Day 2 pick at #41 (range #14-#68, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set leans young — most of his closest comps haven't played enough NFL snaps yet to be confidently graded. Closest comps: Ty Sambrailo, Willie Beavers, Joe Haeg. Ceiling is Ty Sambrailo; floor is Cole Toner. The call is a conviction buy: the model has him 44 spots ahead of the room (board #41 vs consensus #85), and at a 0% bust probability the edge is worth paying for.

Phil Haynes

Draftanomics projects Phil Haynes as a Day 3 dart throw at #178 (range #144-#212, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set leans young — most of his closest comps haven't played enough NFL snaps yet to be confidently graded. Closest comps: Joe Dahl, Parker Ehinger, Joe Thuney. Ceiling is Joe Thuney; floor is Ted Karras. 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 genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #125 and the model won't take him before #178 — a 53-spot markdown. The 53-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.
