This will be updated throughout the draft process when new data becomes available including:
- Players added
- Official measurements
- Athletic drills at the Combine or Pro Day
Remember that the NFL Draft is an efficient market, where within tiers, the projection model serves as a trump card when deciding between players and turning prospects into target or avoid options. Small school players by nature need a decent projection model outlook to even be listed, while major conference prospects, if projected to be in the draft-worthy mix, will be included regardless of their dismal athleticism and/or production. The small school options are likely to be Day 3 options and reserved for deep leagues where mining talent that went undrafted is possible with the depth of each roster.
- OVERALL = Where the prospect ranks historically since 1999 among all players in the position’s projection model.
- ATH = Athleticism score, weights together (based on predictive value) all the different physical attributes into a singular number. Scores since 1999 are ranked, so 1-100% is the range in the category.
- RUSH = Rushing score, blends together different aspects of age-weighted production on the ground based on predictive strength. Scores since 1999 are ranked, so 1-100% is the range in the category.
- REC = Receiving score, blends age-weighted production through the air. Rarely does a prospect have a poor score here and develop into a strong PPR option in the NFL.
