Risk and opportunity flags

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

Derwin Gray
Risks
  • Missed entire rookie season
    Drafted #219 by PIT in 2019 but recorded ZERO regular-season NFL snaps. Year-1 absence is one of the strongest single-signal bust predictors we have.
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.

  • Missed entire rookie season

Verdict

The model's plain-English read.

Derwin Gray

Draftanomics projects Derwin Gray as a Day 3 dart throw at #212 (range #159-#265, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 16% — manageable. The comp set leans young — most of his closest comps haven't played enough NFL snaps yet to be confidently graded. Closest comps: Le'Raven Clark, Andrew Donnal, Adam Bisnowaty. Ceiling is Donovan Smith; floor is Denzelle Good. Drafted #219 by PIT 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 #212 stands alone — and with bust risk at 16%, 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.

Hjalte Froholdt

Draftanomics projects Hjalte Froholdt as a mid-round flyer at #123 (range #106-#140, wide band). Bust probability sits at 6% — low. The comp set leans young — most of his closest comps haven't played enough NFL snaps yet to be confidently graded. Closest comps: Christian Westerman, Isaac Asiata, Ian Silberman. Ceiling is Dorian Johnson; floor is Ian Silberman. Drafted #118 by NWE 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 value lean: #123 against a consensus #139 is a 16-spot edge — enough to move him up the queue, not enough to reach a round early, with missed entire rookie season the tax on that edge.
