- 1Isaiah Likely to be 1st on the depth chart“Isaiah Likely I'm expecting to be the number one receiver for the New York Giants until my Laku Nighbors proves that he is healthy”
- 2Isaiah Likely to outplay his draft cost (the late run tight end)“Isaiah likely is the late run tight end you need because he's going to break out in twenty twenty six.”
- 3Omarion Hampton to be 1st on the depth chart“what excites me about him in a three down role... I'm not overly concerned about Keaton Mitchell.”
- 4Keaton Mitchell to be 2nd on the depth chart“I think he's going to be more of a three to five touch type of player. He's explosive. He is the lightning to Omaron Hampton's thunder.”

How each call scored
4 checkable claims — 3 depth chart calls and 1 sleeper call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 5 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one.
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.
