Risk and opportunity flags

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

Arik Armstead
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 #30 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.

Arik Armstead

Draftanomics projects Arik Armstead (age 21.4 at draft) as a first-round pick at #30 (range #13-#47, wide 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 #30 stands alone — and with bust risk at 0%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

Darius Philon

Draftanomics projects Darius Philon (age 21.2 at draft) as a top-10 pick at #4 (range #1-#18, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #4 stands alone — and with bust risk at 0%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

Angelo Blackson

Draftanomics projects Angelo Blackson (age 22.4 at draft) as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #93 (range #83-#103, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #93 stands alone — and with bust risk at 0%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.
