What Charlie Campbell said

Sorsby has the talent to be a first- or second-round pick, but a gambling addiction that caused him to seek rehab is going to be a big burden on his grade with NFL teams and could cause him to slide.

How each call scored

47 checkable claims — 23 mock draft picks, 22 combine measurements, 1 position order call and 1 top player list — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 22 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

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

Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 1.

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.
