The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Mike Williams (age 22.6 at draft) as a first-round pick at #24 (range #1-#60, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is strong: 5 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Tony Lippett (Starter), Nelson Agholor (Franchise), Dorial Green-Beckham (Starter). Ceiling is DeVante Parker (Franchise); floor is Tony Lippett (Starter). The call is a hold at slot: the model's #24 sits within 9 spots of the room's #15 — no market edge to chase, so take him where he sits, and let the 0% bust probability break ties on draft day.
Draftanomics projects JuJu Smith-Schuster (age 20.4 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #122 (range #90-#154, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 0% — low. The comp set is strong: 5 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Nelson Agholor (Franchise), Tony Lippett (Starter), Dorial Green-Beckham (Starter). Ceiling is Nelson Agholor (Franchise); floor is Tony Lippett (Starter). The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #66 and the model won't take him before #122 — a 56-spot markdown. The 56-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.
