Limited public-board coverage (1 board) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
The story
John Walker checks in at 6-foot-3 and 310 pounds, a frame built for the interior rather than the edge, and the only season on file — 31 tackles, 2.5 TFL, 1 sack — reads like a rotational body more than a disruptor right now. The model has him at No. 133 in the 2027 class; the one board tracking him this early puts him nearly 100 spots higher, at No. 42, and that split says as much about how thin his file is as it does about who's right.

Both of the model's reads put him in Day-3 / priority-free-agent range. If the public boards are higher, the model is the one doing the fading — check the dossier for what it isn't seeing.
