# Raju Byfield — prediction record



## Record

- **Accuracy:** 83.33%
- **MissedTakes Score:** -33.33
- **Graded articles:** 2
- **Graded individual calls:** 4
- **Clarity:** 100%

PROVISIONAL: fewer than 10 graded articles. This number is not yet meaningful, and they are excluded from leaderboards.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline they did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls, because thirty picks in one mock draft is one act of judgment rather than thirty.

### Aug 27, 2026 — scored 100 across 1 call

In a preseason "studs" column, Byfield forecasts several depth-chart outcomes — Caleb Douglas as Miami's No. 2 receiver, Mike Washington as Jeanty's top backup, Joe Milton as Dallas' backup QB, Kyle Williams fourth in New England — plus John Metchie making the Panthers' roster and Jeremiyah Love being a draft-day discount who outperforms his cost once healthy.

### Aug 10, 2026 — scored 66.67 across 3 calls

Byfield runs through eight players he sees as surprising roster-bubble candidates ahead of the 2026 preseason, projecting cuts (Cedric Tillman, Elijah Moore, Deion Burks), depth-chart pecking orders in Cleveland, Las Vegas, Philadelphia and New England, a possible Trey Benson trade to Green Bay, and safety for John Metchie and Darius Cooper.
