GradedAug 13–14

1Sonny Styles to be picked “top 10 pick” (picks 1–10)“I think Sonny Styles is likely gonna be a top 10 pick in this draft class after he tests because he could run the four threes.”
2Kyle Louis to be picked “top 100 picks” (picks 1–100)“Strong linebacker class, I would bet he is somewhere in the top 100 picks after that tape.”
3Garrett Nussmeier to be 3rd quarterback off the board“I would bet that he comes off the board at quarterback three after that performance.”
4Malachi Fields to be picked “top 50 pin” (picks 1–50)“So those two things, that ability to accelerate, the ability to attack the football, I would bet after this, he's a top 50 pin.”
5Jermod McCoy to post low four fours low or high four threes at the combine“But if he comes and works out, and I think he's gonna run-in a low four fours low or high four threes”
6Kaleb Proctor to be picked “day three”“Probably not gonna get into the top 100 because he's only two seventy five, but a nice intriguing day three pass rusher.”

How each call scored

a naive guessbetter than naiveworse than naive

6 checkable claims — 4 mock draft picks, 1 combine measurement and 1 position order call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 7 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

4 of 6 have settled so far, averaging 40.9 out of 100, against 45.8 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.
