Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Jeff Gladney at pick #52; he was actually picked #31 by MIN. 1 NFL season in, he's carved out a genuine role (grading 10.1 of 20 per season), and the market has paid him — a second deal at $3.3M a year. The 4-tier model leans toward the bust tier as the most likely outcome; elite upside is only 6%. NFL grades have been modest so far (0% recent-3, 4% peak across 1 seasons).
