Shawn Siegele examines Breece Hall in his All-the-Metrics series and claims the Iowa State star is a legitimate threat to Jonathan Taylor and Christian McCaffrey.
This year I wrote about all the sleepers first, but the draft is this evening and there’s an outside shot Hall is selected. So it’s time.
Speaking of sleepers, Ben Gretch and I discuss our favorite potential draft-weekend risers and what they need to jump a round in rookie drafts.

After all, taking the next step and becoming a 350-point sensation requires a mix of attributes that is incredibly difficult to deliver. Of course, it’s always tempting to…...
When Rules of Thumb Fail: Winning the Next War
Shawn Siegele argues that occasionally simple rules of thumb end up not being so simple. Understanding the trajectory for players as they move through the NFL can be very important. That’s one of the reasons I so frequently reference Blair’s groundbreaking WR age series.
