Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Sean Davis at pick #159; he was actually picked #58 by PIT. 2 NFL seasons in, he's hung on the fringe of the rotation (grading 7.0 of 20 per season). Model expects a second-deal AAV around $7M/yr.

Draftanomics Rank
Low conviction#159CB·Maryland
The league moved faster than our board — PIT took him at No. 58, 101 picks ahead of our No. 159 grade. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Sean Davis at #159 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and PIT took him at No. 58, 101 picks earlier than our grade. Bust risk projects at 6%, below the position median — the model has a tight grade. The room had him #149 pre-draft; our board sat 10 spots lower.
