Big 12→ SFO's 2017 class
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Ahkello Witherspoon at pick #129; he was actually picked #66 by SFO. 1 NFL season in, he's hung on the fringe of the rotation (grading 5.3 of 20 per season). Model expects a second-deal AAV around $9M/yr.

Draftanomics Rank
Low conviction#129CB·Colorado
The league moved faster than our board — SFO took him at No. 66, 63 picks ahead of our No. 129 grade. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Ahkello Witherspoon at #129 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and SFO took him at No. 66, 63 picks earlier than our grade. Bust risk projects at 3%, below the position median — the model has a tight grade.
