# Ayrton Ostly: Ausley pegs Max Iannikor among the seven tackles going inside the first 50 picks (with a chance to sneak into round one), sees edge Gabe Jacas as a mid-second-round pick they mocked to the Packers, ranks Mansour Delaine and Jermott McCoy as the top two corners in the class, and lays out the 49ers' cornerback depth chart with Lenoir, Stout and Renardo Green starting and Jack Jones behind Stout in the nickel.

8 checkable claims — 4 depth chart calls, 2 mock draft picks and 2 position order calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

3 of 8 have settled so far, averaging 34.4 out of 100, against 28 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one.

> He seems like a mid second rounder, just because he's not he doesn't quite have the traits to bump into, say, like, the, Arbel Reese or the David Bailey tier of edges in this class.
