2025 NFL Draft prospect
Kain Medrano
age 24.2 · 6'3" · 222 lb
On the live board, bust risk sits at 15% and the realistic range is No. 50 to No. 247.
Big Ten→ WAS's 2025 class
Limited public-board coverage (2 boards) — grade leans on stats + athleticism alone
Backtest: model vs. reality
The model graded Kain Medrano at pick #163; he was actually picked #205 by WAS. 1 NFL season in, he's barely gotten on the field (grading -3.3 of 20 per season). So far, the league's caution is winning the argument. The 4-tier model has him as a likely starter.

Draftanomics's take
Draftanomics had Kain Medrano at #163 on draft night — a Day 3 grade — and WAS took him at No. 205. The model's case leans on his age curve. Bust risk projects at 15%, below the position median — the model has a tight grade. The room had him #122 pre-draft; our board sat 41 spots lower.
