Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Willie Henry at pick #102; he was actually picked #132 by BAL. 1 NFL season in, he's carved out a genuine role (grading 8.9 of 20 per season). So far, that's a point for our board. Model expects a second-deal AAV around $5M/yr.

Draftanomics Rank
Speculative#102DT·Michigan
We had him No. 102 on draft night; BAL didn't call his name until No. 132 — a 30-pick gap between our board and the league's. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Willie Henry at #102 on draft night — a Day 2 grade — and BAL took him at No. 132, 30 picks later than our grade. The model's case leans on broad top-100 board coverage. Bust risk projects at 43%, elevated against the position baseline. The room had him #171 pre-draft; our board was 69 spots higher.
