Are there scouting assessment scores for each player that also get considered in the overall assessment of a potential trade? I am thinking that the analysis above is based on average values for a pick and that they could be adjusted by a coefficient developed for each prospective players being considered. For example, do you think they will have a coefficient for Hooker from a scouting assessment that would indicate he is worth what an average 7th round pick typically produces? I envision a coefficent of 1.0 for perfect matches (player is selected at the appropriate # based on scouting score), >1 for players with higher expected value than the pick # and <1 for lower value than the pick #. Seems like there has to be a way to accommodate player-specific values in the decision to trade up or down.

Hooker would be a great addition to the Browns. I wonder if he would be available at #12.

I agree, give Hue and the front office a few years to show progress. It starts by drafting quality players and they need to do better than they did last year, allowing that the jury is still out on those decisions given added picks this year. This team still has major needs at most positions, especially the lines. They can't miss on their player assessments, the core element of the analytic process. Progress for me is seeing the process work and result in quality NFL-caliber players being added to the roster. Then we will see if Hue is the right HC for the Browns.

If the draft was held now, the Browns would have two picks in the top ten. Odds are that will still be the case months from now when the draft occurs. Time for the analytics approach to turn around the mess they are in. I don't care if they trade down to secure more picks, which seems likely, but the front office has to hit a HR this time around.

Or re-worded, "Pitcher must bat and a DH may be used". Interesting idea. Reminds me a bit of coaching in a youth league where everyone batted. I can see benefit to NL teams but not sure why AL teams would view the change as an improvement over status quo. I suspect most AL fans still wouldn't want to see their pitcher bat.

I recall reading that Woody was diabetic, didn't always eat well, particularly the day of the Clemson game, and some players speculated that had something to do with his behavior in that game. Regardless, it was a disappointing end to his coaching career.

Lucky guess. I figured they'd throw something unexpected at us and kill more than one. I thought Glenn would die given the comic book outcome but the "taking it like a man" statement had Abraham written all over it, in my mind. Now I am wondering how long we have to wait for Negan to get what's coming to him. I suspect his downfall just began by not killing Daryl when he had the chance.

the win in 83 was a good one though, OKL was ranked #2 and i think we were #5...height of the Switzer era Agreed...it was one of OSU's best wins during my time there. I recall heading out to High St to celebrate after the game but it was before most students were back on campus for fall quarter and the place was dead.

If my history is correct, that 1977 loss was devastating. A close game, I think. I was at that 1977 game. It was a hell of a game. Bucks fell way behind, three TDs I think, but came back to take the lead in the 2nd half. That comeback was rare for a run-dominated Woody Hayes offense that just didn't pass well. OU scored late and recovered an onside kick when a reserve QB Mike Strahine couldn't handle the kick. That set the Sooners up for a long FG to win it. I don't recall seeing too many games with as huge swing in emotions as that one.

I think they took Kessler too early, but here's hoping that maybe he is another Brian Sipe. Sipe was drafted in the 13th round and warmed the bench a few years before the kardiac kid years. He was short on arm strength but smart and accurate. I know that is a huge maybe but Hugh must see something there.
