The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Carson Wentz (age 23.3 at draft) as a first-round pick at #13 (range #1-#30, wide band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. Age 23.3 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed. The call is a hold at slot: the model's #13 sits within 8 spots of the room's #21 — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.
Draftanomics projects Connor Cook (age 23.2 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #185 (range #183-#187, tight projection). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. Age 23.2 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 #55 and the model won't take him before #185 — a 130-spot markdown. The discount is earned — older prospect leads the case against.
