Limited public-board coverage (1 board) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Darius Slayton at pick #186; he was actually picked #171 by NYG. 7 NFL seasons in, he's carved out a genuine role (grading 9.6 of 20 per season), and the market has paid him — a second deal at $1.0M a year. The 4-tier model gives him a 42% chance at an elite career. NFL grades have been modest so far (2% recent-3, 7% peak across 6 seasons). Model predicted $16M/yr; actual $1M (over by $15M).
