# Chris Brockman: Brockman delivers their "way too early powerless rankings" — the bottom 10 NFL teams, 23 through 32 — and adds that the Cardinals will be the worst team in football with the No. 1 pick, that the Titans will improve but miss the playoffs, and that Bijan Robinson could threaten 2,000 yards from scrimmage.

2 checkable claims — 1 power ranking and 1 team draft slot call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

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

Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.

> And '32, I got the Cardinals. It's not gonna be good.

Accuracy is 0-100 against what actually happened. The naive guess is what a strategy requiring no knowledge would have scored on the same call — the difference is the skill, and it is what the MissedTakes Score averages.
