2015 NFL Draft prospect
JaCorey Shepherd
age 22.1 · 5'11" · 199 lb
On the live board, bust risk sits at 43% and the realistic range is No. 29 to No. 155.
Big 12→ PHI's 2015 class
Limited public-board coverage (0 boards) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded JaCorey Shepherd at pick #20; he was actually picked #191 by PHI. 1 NFL season in, he's barely gotten on the field (grading 0.9 of 20 per season). So far, the league's caution is winning the argument.

We had him No. 20 on draft night; PHI didn't call his name until No. 191 — a 171-pick gap between our board and the league's. His career is settling that argument now.
