The model's plain-English read.
Draftanomics projects Christian Holmes (age 24.4 at draft) as a priority UDFA at #261 (range #231-#291, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 53% — elevated. The comp set is dangerous: 4 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes washed out as backups or busts. Closest comps: Ka'dar Hollman (Bust), Brian Allen (Bust), Damontae Kazee (Bust). Ceiling is Lonnie Johnson Jr. (Starter); floor is Ka'dar Hollman (Bust). 4 of 5 closest comps with NFL outcomes washed out: Ka'dar Hollman, Brian Allen, Damontae Kazee (+1 more). The neighborhood in feature space is dangerous. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #261 stands alone — and with bust risk at 53%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.
Draftanomics projects Faion Hicks (age 24.6 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #256 (range #226-#286, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 50% — elevated. The comp set is dangerous: 4 of 5 closest comps with known NFL outcomes washed out as backups or busts. Closest comps: Ka'dar Hollman (Bust), Brian Allen (Bust), Damontae Kazee (Bust). Ceiling is Lonnie Johnson Jr. (Starter); floor is Ka'dar Hollman (Bust). Age 24.6 at draft. Players entering the league past 24 hit fewer career milestones — the developmental window is already compressed before they take an NFL snap. The call is a hold: no public board ranks him, so the model's #256 stands alone — and with bust risk at 50%, let the room catch up before paying a premium.
Draftanomics projects Devin Harper (age 24.0 at draft) as a Day 3 dart throw at #185 (range #147-#223, very wide band — too little on him yet to project tightly). Bust probability sits at 6% — low. The comp set is mixed: 2 starters-or-better vs 2 backups-or-busts among the 4 comps with known outcomes. Closest comps: Jordan Glasgow (Bust), Ryan Connelly (Bust), Kaden Elliss (Starter). Ceiling is Andrew Van Ginkel (Starter); floor is Sione Takitaki (Contributor). Age 24.0 at draft. Slightly older than the cohort median (~22.5); upside ceiling is trimmed. The call is a conviction buy: the model has him 139 spots ahead of the room (board #185 vs consensus #324), and at a 6% bust probability the edge is worth paying for.
