The middle ground
The same graded calls, zoomed to the bands between the spikes — every take that earned partial credit.
Takes in each band
1,344 graded takes land strictly between the extremes, and the shape has a story: the counts climb as the scores improve. A take that earns partial credit is far more likely to be nearly right than nearly wrong.
This is where the curve-graded kinds live — mock draft picks (914), season win totals (151) and positional finishes (130) — the kinds where missing by a little costs a little, not everything.

2401–2425 of 3,881
We have got your top seventy five overall ranks. We're gonna be going through it via the Fantasy pros ECR Expert Consensus Ranks... Jamar Chase is your leader at the tippy top... George Picken.
It's gonna be the Garrett Wilson show... I think Wilson's going to see flirt with a potential thirty percent target share
I think Drake London could be a top three, if not the number one overall receiver
So I'm not worried about Dowell supplanting Chuba Hubbard. I'm not too worried about fourth round draft pick Trevor Etn... supplanting Cuba.
I just I want no part of thirty one year old Tyreek Hill coming off a bad year... I don't really want to pay a mid third round price to find out
maybe people are a little bored with him, so I think he's going to be a value in drafts
Chase is a top two receiver in the league to me with Jefferson
despite Higgins's injuries, he is at that level. He's a top twenty five receiver in the league.
That's the best receiver group in my opinion. It's not the Bengals, it's the Buccaneers... Okay, let's go receiver again... come on down, Minnesota Vikings.
Except I'm going Bengals wide receivers with my next pick... I actually had the Eagles wide receivers in my top five or six overall
But I love what the Ravens have in safety right now... But we're gonna go safeties because the top tier, you know, potential with these guys and who they have at safety in Houston
The Houston Texans cornerbacks are next on my list... I'm doing another cornerback room the Broncos... I don't think I'm being a homer putting the Patriots cornerbacks up here.
you know what you have in Jordan Adison, who I think is one of the best number two receivers in the NFL
He's an OK three, he's not a plus three. He'll get you buy three
aj Brown to me, is a top five receiver in the NFL. He would probably be number five if I'm doing it.
So number five I'm rocking with Philadelphia... let's go Detroit... Didn't you go into Minnesota?... Miami is my number two... And then number one, I have Cincinnati.
You either got to roll with Scary Terry and Deebo and the Commanders or CD and Pickens and Cowboys... I'm gonna go with Jaden Daniels Scary two Debo
I put Cincinnati at five... I am impressed with the fact that DeVante Adams is in La... I put Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison in this... I am going to put the Lions above the Minnesota Vikings... and I too, will put the Philadelphia Eagles as number one.
I got number five... we pay bucks... Evans Chris Godwin... I like T Higgins, I like Jamar Chase... Then number three Rams... number two Lions... Number one... My Eagles going back to the Super Bowl.
Godwin and of course my guy Evans, the goat that's number five... Number four Detroit... Number three Philly... Minnesota. Just Jefferson and Addison... And number one, I got Cincinnati.
And they made it to the playoffs this year, and I think they'll do it again
yeah they're gonna be in the playoffs.
When the playoff picking time comes out in September, I will pick the Steelers.
They don't do filler seasons, they don't do six and eleven seasons. They will find a way to ten and seven or nine and eight.
I mean, they're not going to win. The division, but they could be a playoff team.
