ChiefsPlanet's Definitive (TIC) NFL Draft Ratings
I've rated every NFL team's draft and ranked them according to how they compare to a couple of pre-draft mocks. The two mocks I used were the Official ChiefsPlanet Mock (created by the collective brilliance of our local draft junkies and the WalterFootball mock (which is easy to find online for free, unlike Mayock's or Gosselin's).
I also used a revised version of the draft value chart (DVC) found on the WalterFootball site. Methodology: Every play drafted is assigned a "cost" based on the value assigned to his draft position by the DVC. He's also assigned a "value" based on his position in each of the mocks. The team that drafted that player then gets a score based on the difference between his cost and his value. A positive score indicates a "steal" and a negative score indicates a "reach". For example, consider DeMarco Murray: He's taken 64th overall in the Official ChiefsPlanet Mock for a "value" of 452.The team's overall score is calculated by adding the scores from each of it's draft picks. The higher the score, the better the draft. Results using the Official ChiefsPlanet Mock: Code:
01. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2347.5 02. New Orleans Saints 1738.5 03. New York Giants 1555.0 04. Kansas City Chiefs 1022.0 05. Cincinnatti Bengals 332.0 06. Jacksonville Jaguars 306.0 07.

A couple of notes:
1. Obviously these results would change if a different mock was used or if a different version of the Draft Value Chart was used. 2. I did a similar calculation for the AFC West teams using the WalterFootball Mock in this thread. The results differ from that analysis slightly because I used a revised version of the Draft Value Chart here instead of the older version that I used in that thread. 3. The WalterFootball Mock came out right before the NFL draft. The Official ChiefsPlanet Mock was put together in March. The impact of this time difference can be seen in the values of players who either rose or dropped on the basis of late information. The most obvious and significant of these was the Da'Quan Bowers leg injury. He was taken 2nd overall in the Official ChiefsPlanet Mock whereas he was taken 24th overall in the WalterFootball Mock. Since New Orleans took him with the 51st pick, they get credit for a big steal in the WalterFootball analysis (+405 pts) but it's nothing compared to the steal they get credited for in the Official ChiefsPlanet Mock analysis (+2230 pts). 4. There were more picks in the draft than the Draft Value Chart covered so I decreased the value of each pick beyond the range of the DVC by 0.5 pts.

Because he was taken 20th overall in the Official CP Mock whereas he didn't go until the 3rd round in reality. WalterFootball had him going in the 3rd round just a few picks after the spot the Chiefs took him. This is probably another case like that of Da'Quan Bowers where late information (about his failed drug test at the combine in this case) caused a re-evaluation of his value. That re-evaluation is reflected in the WalterFootball Mock, but not in the CP Mock.
The way I'd read it is that the CP Mock reflects his value based on talent alone whereas the WF Mock reflects the riskiness of a guy who was too foolish to clean up for the combine.

We start the CP mock in early March, almost a full two months before the real thing. A lot happens over that time that affects the status of a player. In some regards, I wish I hadn't pushed a few years back to go to a full 7 round mock. Had we stayed with a 2-3 round mock, I believe the results would be much more realistic because we could start the process much closer to the actual draft date.

Brian Xanders was on a Denver sports station and said that they graded every teams draft according to their board and Denver came out on top followed by the Saints and the Titans.

I actually find the people here hilarious and enjoy CP more than Broncos sites. The Orange Mane is too slow paced and half the posters there just want to argue about how bad the Broncos are or how Pat Bowlen has been secretly running the Broncos draft room and not letting the front office draft DT's for the past 30 years.... The official Broncos board sucks. |
