diamondbull424 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Quote Historic Success Chart The numbers show us the following outline for finding consistent starters: 1st Round - OL (83%) LB (70%) TE (67%) DB (64%) QB (63%) WR (58%) RB (58%) DL (58%) - Patrick Queen 2nd Round - OL (70%) LB (55%) TE (50%) WR (49%) DB (46%) QB (27%) DL (26%) RB (25%) - JK Dobbins 3rd Round - OL (40%) TE (39%) LB (34%) DL (27%) WR (25%) DB (24%) QB (17%) RB (16%) - Tyre Phillips - Malik Harrison - Justin Madubuike - Devin Duvernay 4th Round - DL (37%) TE (33%) OL (29%) LB (16%) WR(12%) DB (11%) RB (11%) QB (8%) - Ben Bredeson 5th Round - TE (32%) DB (17%) WR (16%) OL (16%) DL (13%) RB (9%) LB (4%) QB (0%) - Broderick Washington 6th Round - TE (26%) OL (16%) DL (13%) WR (9%) DB (8%) RB (6%) LB (5%) QB (0%) - James Proche 7th Round - DB (11%) OL (9%) QB (6%) WR (5%) DL (3%) LB (2%) RB (0%) TE (0%) - Geno Stone https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2015/2/20/8072877/what-the-statistics-tell-us-about-the-draft-by-round Article from 2015, just find it interesting to apply some (albeit not entirely recent) analytics to the discussion. The data is compiled from the 2005-2014. It’s also not entirely reliable as he included 2014 (and 2013) and it would generally be prudent to give a class roughly three years prior to composing trends. That said the first round success rate is backed by other articles in many other places and thus I’ll assume the rest of the data to be pretty accurate as well. I definitely would be interested in recent RB trends considering less backs go in the first round now than even then and I wonder how that changes the success rate for RBs drafted in the second round. But alas I’m not that bored to attempt such research. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
