Speculative#90DT·Texas
We had him No. 90 on draft night; IND didn't call his name until No. 116 — a 26-pick gap between our board and the league's. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Hassan Ridgeway at #90 on draft night — a Day 2 grade — and IND took him at No. 116, 26 picks later than our grade. The model's case leans on his recruiting pedigree. Bust risk projects at 37%, near the position baseline. The room had him #132 pre-draft; our board was 42 spots higher.
