It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. 1 of 2 have settled so far, averaging 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls. > I think he cemented himself as a top ten pick this week. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Sonny Styles to be picked “top ten pick” (picks 1–10)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Sonny Styles - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess - **Kyler Murray to move** - Kind: Trade and Signing Calls · About: Kyler Murray - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Sonny Styles — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/sonny-styles - Kyler Murray — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/kyler-murray ## What others said about the same people - David Harrison on Sonny Styles: Harrison gives his initial 53-man roster projection for the Washington Commanders: three quarterbacks including Ethan Kalyak Manus, three running backs, four tight ends, six receivers (leaving off De'Ami Brown and Jaden Bradley), nine offensive linemen with Matt Goldman at center, and a defense of six linebackers but only four cornerbacks.
