The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Logan Woodside (age 23.2 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #245 (range #219-#271, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 65% — scary. The comp set is mixed: 2 starters-or-better vs 2 backups-or-busts among the 4 comps with known outcomes. Closest comps: Garrett Grayson, Jake Rudock (Bust), Connor Cook (Bust). Ceiling is Bryce Petty (Starter); floor is Garrett Grayson. Drafted #249 by CIN in 2018 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have. The call is a genuine fade: the room's consensus prices him around #210 and the model won't take him before #245 — a 35-spot markdown. The discount is earned — missed entire rookie season leads the case against.
Draftanomics projects Luke Falk (age 23.3 at draft) as a mid-round flyer at #151 (range #94-#208, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 45% — real but not disqualifying. The comp set is strong: 3 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes became starters or better. Closest comps: Sean Mannion (Franchise), Trevor Siemian (Franchise), Jake Rudock (Bust). Ceiling is Sean Mannion (Franchise); floor is Carson Wentz (Starter). Age 23.3 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 #93 and the model won't take him before #151 — a 58-spot markdown. The discount is earned — older prospect leads the case against.
