James Williams
age 21.2
On the live board, bust risk sits at 23% and the realistic range is No. 46 to No. 243.

Limited public-board coverage (2 boards) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded James Williams at pick #159; he was actually picked #242 by TEN. 2 NFL seasons in, he's barely gotten on the field (grading -1.3 of 20 per season). So far, the league's caution is winning the argument. The 4-tier model leans toward the bust tier as the most likely outcome; elite upside is only 3%. NFL grades have been modest so far (0% recent-3, 0% peak across 1 seasons).

Low conviction#159SAF·Miami (FL)
We had him No. 159 on draft night; TEN didn't call his name until No. 242 — a 83-pick gap between our board and the league's. His career is settling that argument now.
