Risk and opportunity flags

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

Kamalei Correa
Risks
No major risks flagged.
Opportunities
  • Consensus says higher
    14 boards have him at mean rank #63; model has him #103 — a 40-spot fade. Analysts converging this much above the model is a tell that the model is undervaluing him.
Jihad Ward
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.
Carl Nassib
Risks
  • Older prospect
    Age 23.0 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed.
Opportunities
  • Consensus says higher
    7 boards have him at mean rank #63; model has him #118 — a 55-spot fade. Analysts converging this much above the model is a tell that the model is undervaluing him.

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Kamalei Correa

Draftanomics projects Kamalei Correa (age 22.0 at draft) as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #103 (range #93-#113, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 3% — low. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #63 and the model won't take him before #103 — a 40-spot markdown. The 40-spot markdown rests on thin verified signal rather than a named flaw — the model hasn't seen enough yet to match the room's conviction.

Jihad Ward

Draftanomics projects Jihad Ward (age 22.0 at draft) as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #91 (range #77-#105, 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 lean fade: the model sits 18 spots below the room's consensus #73 — don't pay sticker price. The 18-spot markdown rests on thin verified signal rather than a named flaw — the model hasn't seen enough yet to match the room's conviction.

Carl Nassib

Draftanomics projects Carl Nassib (age 23.0 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #118 (range #108-#128, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. Age 23.0 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #63 and the model won't take him before #118 — a 55-spot markdown. The discount is earned — older prospect leads the case against.
