The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Michael Jackson (age 22.3 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #120 (range #71-#169, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is mixed: 1 starters-or-better vs 1 backups-or-busts among the 2 comps with known outcomes. Closest comps: Artie Burns (Starter), Will Redmond, Harlan Miller (Contributor). Ceiling is Artie Burns (Starter); floor is Harlan Miller (Contributor). 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 lean fade: the model sits 15 spots below the room's consensus #105 — don't pay sticker price. The discount is earned — comp group has bust risk leads the case against.
Draftanomics projects Rock Ya-Sin (age 22.9 at draft) as a first-round pick at #28 (range #1-#78, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is mixed: 2 starters-or-better vs 2 backups-or-busts among the 4 comps with known outcomes. Closest comps: Artie Burns (Starter), Kendall Fuller (Starter), Juston Burris (Contributor). Ceiling is Artie Burns (Starter); floor is Kalan Reed (Backup). 2 of 4 closest comps with NFL outcomes ended up backups or busts: Kalan Reed, Rasul Douglas. Mixed signal from history. The call is a value lean: #28 against a consensus #51 is a 23-spot edge — enough to move him up the queue, not enough to reach a round early, with comp group has bust risk the tax on that edge.
