Joe Burrow does have elite wide receivers and Mahomes/Allen do not

@benbbaldwin Said it last year but for an analytics guy, you let your hate of the Bengals and Burrow outweigh your analytics a lot. Lol last year you showed burrow high up in your graphs and said “yeah but he has elite WRs” but no mention of what the other QBs have on offense lol.

Congrats to Sean. Excited for the Jets. As a trip down memory lane, sharing one of Sean's old pieces that summed up a lot of many of our frustrations with the Carroll-era Seahawks

The Jets hired Sean Clement into a director-level analytics role, per sources. Clement comes to the Jets from SumerSports and previously consulted for other NFL teams.

Usually adding an additional draft class doesn't change anything, but this time the hits at WR were so big that the WR curve is now closer to the other premium positions (OT, edge, interior DL), which I think matches our understanding of positional value.

Annual update of my post on draft curves. This uses 2nd contract value to estimate the value of each draft pick, including by position. This update incorporates the 2020 draft class, which saw some huge hits at WR including Lamb, Jefferson, and Aiyuk.

On a limb here disagreeing with some of my colleagues, but I think the Jags move last night was the archetypical draft blunder. "Yes, but we believe THIS PROSPECT is different," is what they all say. Overconfidence in the exception is the original sin of all draft irrationality.

If correctly predicting the exact pick they would make in the draft 3 months ahead of time is hating then 🤷

it rules that this guy seems to hate the coach who won his favorite team’s only championship because he disrespects the graphs.

If you want to understand the state of the art in the NFL regarding positional surplus, the trade market, and why so many teams still mess up, take 20 minutes of your time and watch this (guest appearances from @KevinCole___ and @SeanfromSeabeck).

Right, this too. The Seahawks lost DK and don't have an offensive line so whichever of Darnold/Geno they picked is probably going to struggle in 2025 anyway

He’ll magically be bad when he has to play behind that offensive line.

Right, the surplus value of pick 92 is about 1.4% of salary cap APY or about $4M per year (. If you feel super strongly about this one way or the other you're probably being way overconfident in our ability to project QB play .

@benbbaldwin And the 3rd round pick is worth $12m to $15m.
