The page this came from has changed since we captured it on Aug 5, 2026. The quote and evidence above are from our capture, not from what the page says today.

32 checkable claims — 32 mock draft picks — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

It names 64 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

31 of 32 have settled so far, averaging 69.9 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.
