Risk and opportunity flags

Top three concerns and top two upside signals from the model.

Benardrick McKinney
Risks
  • No athletic testing
    No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.
Brian Mihalik
Risks
  • Missed entire rookie season
    Drafted #237 by PHI in 2015 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have.
  • No athletic testing
    No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.
David Mayo
Risks
  • No athletic testing
    No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured.
  • Not on any consensus board
    Model has him at pick #84 but ZERO public big boards have him on their list. Either we're seeing something nobody else does, or the model is hallucinating.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Benardrick McKinney

Draftanomics projects Benardrick McKinney (age 22.4 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #134 (range #117-#151, wide band). Bust probability sits at 13% — low. No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #134 stands alone — and with bust risk at 13%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

Brian Mihalik

Draftanomics projects Brian Mihalik (age 22.7 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #110 (range #89-#131, wide band). Bust probability sits at 65% — scary. Drafted #237 by PHI in 2015 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #110 stands alone — and with bust risk at 65%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

David Mayo

Draftanomics projects David Mayo (age 21.7 at draft) as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #84 (range #63-#105, wide band). Bust probability sits at 3% — low. No Combine drills or Pro Day numbers on file while most of the class has tested — the athletic part of the grade is unmeasured. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #84 stands alone — and with bust risk at 3%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.
