  4. 4Antonio Williams to be 3rd on the depth chart“Antonio Williams fits nicely as that number three guy. I think he is a great number three to McLaurin and Brandon Aayuk.”
  5. 5Ventrell Miller to be 2nd on the depth chart“I think this is a sign that they are fine with, Ventrell Miller as their second linebacker next to Floyd Lillecon because they only drafted a linebacker with their last pick of the draft”
  6. 6Sam Hecht to be 1st on the depth chart“I think getting him here, he's gonna start for them immediately. I think that's a starting center that they got on day three.”

How each call scored

7 checkable claims — 7 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 13 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.

Of the 6 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 3 and below it on 3.

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.
