There was a theme with several of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ draft picks this year. It seemed like with each of their first four picks, people were wondering how did that prospect fall? As it turns out, Warren Sharp of Sharp Football Analysis put a quantifiable value to that feeling.
They took consensus draft boards, and consensus mock drafts from, basically aggregating several of the top sources around the NFL media landscape, averaged those values, and then compared it to where each player ended up getting selected to determine if they were underdrafted or overdrafted.
