    I like this and it gives me a massive doog boner.

    I am curious about the 2nd round delineation though. Either way it will be interesting, but the data could be totally different if that moves to the 3rd round, or 5th, or the whole draft, etc.

    And no, I'm not going to do the work myself cause fuck that.

    Agreed, fun with selective endpoints for sure
    I usually use Top 3 rounds, since it is basically the Top 100 players and round numbers are handy. But if you look at the charts of average Approximate Value by draft slot, the quality of picks drops off very steeply from the top pick right down to somewhere between pick 50 & 75, where things start to level out. In other words, there is some evidence that the top two rounds is actually a pretty good way to look at things and not really about being selective to shape a narrative.

    The USC data is super damning and will only get worse under Helton

    Did anybody else catch the coaching dig during the draft when talking about how Darnold showed minimal improvement from Year 1 and 2 and how much he will be coached up quickly at the NFL level?

    You think Helton's worse at developing players than Sark/Kiffen?
    Yes

    And moreso, I think the area where there is going to be an even bigger gap is that Helton’s recruiting will gradually start falling off in part as we get stronger. The fact that Helton’s group is largely super lazy by offering guys we offer immediately after we offer them isn’t a good look

    I’m mostly with you on recruiting. I don’t think he’s any worse of a developer than his post Carroll predecessors though.
