The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Joseph Ossai (age 21.0 at draft) as a Day 2 pick at #57 (range #15-#99, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 65% — scary. The comp set is strong: 4 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Devin White (Starter), Devin Bush Jr. (Starter), Cody Barton (Starter). Ceiling is Devin White (Starter); floor is Blake Cashman (Starter). Drafted #69 by CIN in 2021 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 lean fade: the model sits 15 spots below the room's consensus #42 — don't pay sticker price. The discount is earned — missed entire rookie season leads the case against.
Draftanomics projects Jamin Davis (age 22.4 at draft) as a Day 2 pick at #44 (range #2-#86, 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: Devin Bush Jr. (Starter), Ben Burr-Kirven (Bust), Devin White (Starter). Ceiling is Devin White (Starter); floor is Blake Cashman (Starter). The call is a hold at slot: the model's #44 and the room's #44 land on the same answer — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.
Draftanomics projects Zaven Collins (age 21.9 at draft) as a first-round pick at #29 (range #14-#44, wide band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is dangerous: 3 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes washed out as backups or busts. Closest comps: Rashan Gary (Starter), Jachai Polite (Bust), Haason Reddick (Bust). Ceiling is Rashan Gary (Starter); floor is Jahlani Tavai (Starter). School SP+ 5.6 (AMERICAN ATHLETIC). Strong program among non-Power-5 — the prospect dominated against decent competition. 3 of 5 closest comps with NFL outcomes washed out: Jachai Polite, Haason Reddick, Zach Cunningham. The neighborhood in feature space is dangerous. The call is a hold at slot: the model's #29 and the room's #27 land on the same answer — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.
