I like Goodberry and think he is very knowledgeable/intelligent but I've noticed a lot of players he was excited about in past drafts ended up as busts. Predicting NFL success might just be something that he isn't good at. Of course there is a lot of randomness anyways. And a ton is determined after the pick has been made. Can the team develop the player? Will the player make good choices? How is the chemistry with the rest of the team?
Another thing I want to say about Goodberrys process is it's very data driven. When they have these wild fluctuations form consensus and a player is good or bad conflicting with your scores. You can go back and see if there is something in there data profile that was missed and adjust your scores based on that. As I said they are big on the RAS scores as that has usually a 60 to 70% factor in whether a player makes the pro bowl. But at safety it's starting to show that testing well may not be that big of a factor.
I know you said you like him so not arguing just making conversation. But another thing I like about him is how he uses PFF. A guy like Volson for instance you can take his PFF scores for year one and compare to other guards who had similar scores from past years and see how they scored going forward. An idea of what to expect and maybe an early idea of what your draft targets should be.
