Your 2025 Draft Grade: The Poll
(Yesterday, 02:36 PM)BoomerFan Wrote: 180 is pretty surprising. 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?

I think I've heard him mention that he's tweaked his eval formula recently due to his number of busts.  He IIRC puts more weight into RAS than he once did because he believes it's a legit predictor of success.  Said something about highly successful college players with poor RAS having a higher bust rate.  He weighted college production more heavily in the past, but I think he's leery of it without athleticism.

Despite this, he still wasn't high on Stewart regardless of his near perfect RAS.
