Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Mike Edwards at pick #139; he was actually picked #99 by TAM. 7 NFL seasons in, he's hung on the fringe of the rotation (grading 6.1 of 20 per season), and the market has paid him — a second deal at $3.0M a year. The 4-tier model has him as a likely starter. NFL grades have been modest so far (0% recent-3, 17% peak across 6 seasons).

Draftanomics Rank
High conviction#139S·Kentucky
The league moved faster than our board — TAM took him at No. 99, 40 picks ahead of our No. 139 grade. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Mike Edwards at #139 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and TAM took him at No. 99, 40 picks earlier than our grade. Bust risk projects at 7%, below the position median — the model has a tight grade.
