No standout upside flags.
Willie Beavers
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.

Joe Haeg
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
    3 boards place him at mean rank #127; model has him #71 — a 56-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.

Alex Lewis

Draftanomics projects Alex Lewis as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #75 (range #68-#82, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a hold at slot: the model's #75 and the room's #74 land on the same answer — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.

Willie Beavers

Draftanomics projects Willie Beavers as a mid-round flyer at #135 (range #125-#145, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 40% — real but not disqualifying. 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 25 spots below the room's consensus #110 — don't pay sticker price. The 25-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.

Joe Haeg

Draftanomics projects Joe Haeg as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #71 (range #50-#92, 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 conviction buy: the model has him 56 spots ahead of the room (board #71 vs consensus #127), and at a 0% bust probability the edge is worth paying for.
