Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Cyrus Jones

Draftanomics projects Cyrus Jones (age 22.4 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #108 (range #101-#115, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 52% — elevated. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #72 and the model won't take him before #108 — a 36-spot markdown. A 52% bust probability backs the 36-spot markdown.

Kevon Seymour

Draftanomics projects Kevon Seymour (age 22.4 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #158 (range #151-#165, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 44% — real but not disqualifying. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #112 and the model won't take him before #158 — a 46-spot markdown. The 46-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.
