Risk and opportunity flags

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

Leonard Williams
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 #8 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.
B.J. Dubose
Risks
  • Missed entire rookie season
    Drafted #193 by MIN in 2015 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have.
  • Older prospect
    Age 23.3 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.
Shane Ray
Risks
  • Not on any consensus board
    Model has him at pick #95 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.

Leonard Williams

Draftanomics projects Leonard Williams (age 20.9 at draft) as a top-10 pick at #8 (range #1-#25, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — 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 #8 stands alone — and with bust risk at 0%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

B.J. Dubose

Draftanomics projects B.J. Dubose (age 23.3 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #227 (range #217-#237, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 65% — scary. Drafted #193 by MIN 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 #227 stands alone — and with bust risk at 65%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

Shane Ray

Draftanomics projects Shane Ray (age 21.9 at draft) as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #95 (range #85-#105, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #95 stands alone — and with bust risk at 0%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.
