Risk and opportunity flags

Top three concerns and top two upside signals from the model.

Jackson Barton
Risks
No major risks flagged.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.
Javon Patterson
Risks
  • Missed entire rookie season
    Drafted #246 by IND in 2019 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have.
  • 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.
Opportunities
No standout upside flags.

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Jackson Barton

Draftanomics projects Jackson Barton 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 9% — low. The comp set leans young — most of his closest comps haven't played enough NFL snaps yet to be confidently graded. Closest comps: Halapoulivaati Vaitai, Tyrus Thompson, Rob Havenstein. Ceiling is Rob Havenstein; floor is Sam Tevi. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #122 stands alone — and with bust risk at 9%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.

Javon Patterson

Draftanomics projects Javon Patterson as a Day 3 dart throw at #176 (range #162-#190, wide band). Bust probability sits at 33% — real but not disqualifying. Drafted #246 by IND in 2019 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 hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #176 stands alone — and with bust risk at 33%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.
