Big 12→ GNB's 2020 class
Limited public-board coverage (1 board) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Josiah Deguara at pick #246; he was actually picked #94 by GNB. 6 NFL seasons in, he's hung on the fringe of the rotation (grading 3.7 of 20 per season), and the market has paid him — a second deal at $1.3M a year. The 4-tier model has him as a likely role. NFL grades have been modest so far (0% recent-3, 3% peak across 5 seasons).

Draftanomics Rank
Speculative#246TE·Cincinnati
The league moved faster than our board — GNB took him at No. 94, 152 picks ahead of our No. 246 grade. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Josiah Deguara at #246 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and GNB took him at No. 94, 152 picks earlier than our grade. The model's case leans on his age curve. Bust risk projects at 21%, below the position median — the model has a tight grade. The room had him #115 pre-draft; our board sat 131 spots lower.
