The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Jerald Hawkins as a mid-round flyer at #137 (range #130-#144, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #70 and the model won't take him before #137 — a 67-spot markdown. The 67-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.
Draftanomics projects Le'Raven Clark as a mid-round flyer at #151 (range #144-#158, moderate band). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #85 and the model won't take him before #151 — a 66-spot markdown. The 66-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.
Draftanomics projects Cole Toner as a third-round / early Day 3 pick at #81 (range #64-#98, wide band). Bust probability sits at 12% — low. The call is a conviction buy: the model has him 104 spots ahead of the room (board #81 vs consensus #186), and at a 12% bust probability the edge is worth paying for.
