rank#142$1.1M
Mountain West→ DAL's 2023 class
Limited public-board coverage (2 boards) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Viliami Fehoko at pick #142; he was actually picked #129 by DAL. 1 NFL season in, he's barely gotten on the field (grading 0.1 of 20 per season), and the market has paid him — a second deal at $0.2M a year. The 4-tier model leans toward the bust tier as the most likely outcome; elite upside is only 2%. NFL grades have been modest so far (0% recent-3, 0% peak across 1 seasons).

Draftanomics Rank
Low conviction#142DL·San Jose St.
We had him No. 142 on draft night, and the league mostly agreed — DAL took him at No. 129. The seasons since are the scoreboard.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Viliami Fehoko at #142 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and DAL took him at No. 129. The model's case leans on his age curve. Bust risk projects at 46%, elevated against the position baseline. The room had him #158 pre-draft; our board was 16 spots higher.
