No standout upside flags.
Will Parks
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.
  • Consensus skeptic
    2 boards place him at mean rank #262; model has him #179 — a 84-spot gap. When boards fade a player this hard, the model is usually the one missing something.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Keanu Neal

Draftanomics projects Keanu Neal (age 20.8 at draft) as a Day 2 pick at #58 (range #48-#68, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a value lean: #58 against a consensus #72 is a 14-spot edge — enough to move him up the queue, not enough to reach a round early.

Karl Joseph

Draftanomics projects Karl Joseph (age 22.6 at draft) as a Day 2 pick at #62 (range #55-#69, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a hold at slot: the model's #62 sits within 11 spots of the room's #51 — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.

Will Parks

Draftanomics projects Will Parks (age 21.7 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #179 (range #169-#189, 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 conviction buy: the model has him 84 spots ahead of the room (board #179 vs consensus #262), and at a 0% bust probability the edge is worth paying for.
