Nick Shook#67 of 87 NFL pundits · Apr 9, 2025

Shook picked LSU tackle Will Campbell as the offensive lineman from this class most likely to become an All-Pro, but specifically at guard rather than tackle. They also called Missouri's Armand Membu one of the first two tackles off the board, tabbed Oregon State's Joshua Gray as a hidden gem who won't be a first-round pick, and argued Minnesota will win at least nine games.

  1. 1Joshua Gray to be picked “won't be a first round pick” (picks 1–32)“So won't be a first round pick, but is going to be a guy that I'm gonna pay a lot of attention to you because I think his upside is very much being slept on right now.”
  2. 2Minnesota Vikings to finish with 9 wins“On what planet do they not win nine games this year? I'm sorry, I just have a hard time believing that”

How each call scored

a naive guessbetter than naive

4 checkable claims — 1 mock draft pick, 1 position order call, 1 pro bowl and all-pro call and 1 season win total — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

2 of 4 have settled so far, averaging 100 out of 100, against 52.5 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.
