Draftanomics Rank
Speculative#153WR·Oregon
We had him No. 153 on draft night; MIN didn't call his name until No. 239 — a 86-pick gap between our board and the league's. His career is settling that argument now.
Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Dillon Mitchell at #153 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and MIN took him at No. 239, 86 picks later than our grade. Bust risk projects at 42%, elevated against the position baseline. The room had him #73 pre-draft; our board sat 80 spots lower.
