Terrell Furman JrJul 17, 2025

- 1Hunter Henry to outplay his draft cost (tightend nineteen)“and now he's tightend nineteen... He is a number one tight end and he's going all the way dirt cheap in the back of the rounds.”
- 2Marvin Mims Jr. to outplay his draft cost (wide receiver forty nine A fifty nine)“So I think Marvin Mims is going to be way better than wide receiver forty nine A fifty nine.”
- 3Josh Palmer to outplay his draft cost (Wide receiver sixty nine)“He doesn't have to go out here and be a top ten wide receiver for him to outperform wide receiver sixty nine. So I think Josh Palmer is gonna have a great year.”
- 4Hunter Henry to finish top 13 at his position, by fantasy points“Clearly we see his ceiling or the floor that is the floor is tight end swell tight end thirteen. He is a number one tight end”

How each call scored
a naive guessbetter than naiveworse than naive4 checkable claims — 3 sleeper calls and 1 positional finish — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 6 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
All 4 have settled, averaging 31.3 out of 100, against 52.1 for a naive guess at the same calls.
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.

Zack Kelberman · Roster Spot Calls · Sean Fresch Jr. · Miss 0
Kelberman expects Sean Fresch Jr. to clear waivers and return to the Broncos' practice squad, sees Riley Moss back from concussion for the Week 11 game at Las Vegas, and projects newly acquired Daiyan Henley to begin as the third inside linebacker behind Alex Singleton and Justin Strnad before likely moving into a starting role.Zack Kelberman · Roster Spot Calls · Sean Fresch Jr. · Miss 0
Kelberman writes that Riley Moss may sit out the preseason finale against Minnesota but should be available for the Week 1 opener at Kansas City; they also suggest undrafted corners Sean Fresch Jr. and Brent Austin are being evaluated for practice squad spots.Chad Jensen · Roster Spot Calls · Jordan Turner · Miss 0
Jensen predicts Daiyan Henley's arrival will cut into Justin Strnad's snaps while Alex Singleton keeps playing virtually every down, and that Denver will return to a three-linebacker rotation after the Week 10 bye. They also expect one of Jordan Turner or Karene Reid — most likely Turner — to be waived to clear a roster spot.Pete Prisco · Score Predictions · Buffalo Bills · Close 76
