Overview
Headline grade, verdict, and the one-line scout take
Draftanomics Rank
Low conviction#203EDGE·Florida
We had him No. 203 on draft night; PHI didn't call his name until No. 240 — a 37-pick gap between our board and the league's. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Alex McCalister at #203 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and PHI took him at No. 240, 37 picks later than our grade. Bust risk projects at 63% — well above the position median; the model is flagging this as a high-variance pick.
